As the other thread is nearing its limit, hopefully this is the thread with lots of positive news.

I've never prayed so hard or so often for anything.

Praying for life for Aillidh.

Thank you to those who have written their prayers here. I often don't have the right words so borrow yours to add to my own.

LostInWales · 30/06/2012 22:43

Exactly what Silbury said.

Thank you all as well, it's a long time since I have felt my faith so strongly. I am praying for Aillidh again this evening and will do again the moment I wake up tomorrow. Please God hear our prayers.

Another candle lit, another prayer added. X

PacificDogwood · 30/06/2012 23:07

Still hoping and praying.

Love and strength to you all.

5madthings · 30/06/2012 23:16

sending love and strength and hoping Aillidh has a peaceful night and is stronger in the morning xxxx

Northernlurker · 30/06/2012 23:31

Oh my word - there's a thread in AIBU - AIBU to believe in miracles?
A lady who was told she would never have children has her beautiful baby girl in her arms. How's that for a sign? Miracles happen.
Take encouragement and keep praying.

Ok tough update on Facebook:

Acute Myeloid Leukaemia - Aillidh's Search For A Donor
Okay, all, this is it! I can't stay up anymore, I am on bended knees BEGGING God. Here's the score, her sats have worsened. She is on 85% oxygen and sitting at 85 sats. MOTHER F*&^R! You HAVE to do it, folks. I can't fight anymore.

Her father is on night watch and a nurse who seems to think she has to get worse to get better. For real? I just had another practically kill me by saying she never saw anyone that sick pull through.

Well, maybe God put this one there for a reason. At any rate, I'm so tired, I have to give it over to Him. YOU have to try to pull for her, people. I can't tell if she is losing strength anymore or it's the fact she's so heavily sedated now. I can tell you, I had to get out of there and leave it to her father because I'm too much of a negative nancy and she doesn't need that.

She needs YOU.

And she needs a miracle. BIG TIME. BIG BIG BIG time.

I can't do it anymore.

So she needs you to pull for it.

Love to every one of you.

So.....lets be brave and fight for her. 'Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go' (Joshua 1:9)

Aillidh I am sending all the love and energy I have your way. X

CheerfulYank · 01/07/2012 03:48

Lord Jesus, Who went about doing good and healing, we ask You to bless our girl Aillidh, who is sick. Give her strength in body, courage in spirit, and
patience in pain. Let her recover her health and live to bring joy to You and her family, and all of us, whose lives have been touched and so love this wee girl that most of us have never met. Amen

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 01/07/2012 06:19

Collect for the sick from the US Episcopal Church:

Lord Jesus Christ, Good Shepherd of the sheep, you gather the lambs in your arms and carry them in your bosom: we commend to your loving care this child Aillidh. Relieve her pain, guard her from all danger, restore to her your gifts of gladness and strength, and raise her up to a life of service to you. Hear us, we pray, for your dear Name's sake.

Elephantscantdothemoonwalk · 01/07/2012 07:14

dear lord, the provider of miracles. Please give aillidh and her family the miracle they deserve. Lord, I ask you to hold her in your thoughts whilst we pray. Christ amen.

Keep going ailldh. We believe in you.
we will always be praying and thinking of you

StealthPolarBear · 01/07/2012 07:17

Expat sounds , understandably, at the end of her tether.
I bought a candle yesterday, lighting it again now

Scootergrrrl · 01/07/2012 07:17

Dear Lord, on this, your special day, please use your magnificent power and love to begin to heal the tired and broken body of your child Aillidh and give her family a sign that You are watching over them in your grace. Please grant them, especially her loving mother Leigh, the strength they need to go on with their fight. Amen.

McKayz · 01/07/2012 07:20

Sending all the positive thoughts that I have. X

Furball · 01/07/2012 07:26

I'm still here wishing all the positive thoughts and strength I can xx

Lougle · 01/07/2012 07:50

Expat, know this: you are fighting, but the fight is not yours to fight. I pray that God you the peace that surpasses all understanding, and hope.

Aillidh, many of us have never met you. Some will have seen the video of you with your Mum, but we all feel like we know you, because giraffes and your Mum have described you so well.

You are beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Your eyes shine with mischievousness. We're all thinking of you, praying for you and your family.

CoffeeandChocolateplease · 01/07/2012 07:56

More prayers being said here this morning. Many thanks to those who have posted theirs, I am not good with words so they are very helpful. Much love to all the family x

TimeForMeAndDD · 01/07/2012 07:57

Praying very hard here. Sending lots of love and strength.

Keep fighting Aillidh X

TimeForMeAndDD · 01/07/2012 08:39

I hope no one minds but I have just seen this update on the other thread

psychomum5 Sun 01-Jul-12 08:26:03

have just had a text from Giraffes. She has asked whoever is able to update as she is not able to get online.

Expat rang Giraffes to come in as she hadn;t slept. Aillidhs daddy has also been sent to go rest and sleep.
Aillidh is on 100% oxygen, sats at 83.
She is getting blood and platelets as they are low.
Just now waiting for Drs rounds.
Aillidh is heavily sedated.

Feeling ever so powerless here but still praying very hard for that miracle.

RabidAnchovy · 01/07/2012 08:45

Aillidh darling, you are so brave and you are fighting so hard, if anyone deserves to live it is you. A whole bunch of strangers are willing you on.
May the Lord bless you. xx
