Mikey

My heart is so full right now as I sit in the hospital room of a dying student from my school. He is only 5 years old and was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. His disease is called DIPG. It only affects children and is very rare. He was diagnosed in January and here we sit 8 months later watching this baby fight for his life. Please pray for this family. He is one tough little guy but it is inevitable that the end is near. It breaks my heart but I can't believe how many people have already been touched by him. He is a big Alabama fan and several players, fans, and even coach Saban have called him and prayed with the family. You can see how precious he is! Pray that he is comfortable and pray they family can have the strength they need to deal with it.

Mikey went to be with Jesus on September 12.  If you are a prayer warrior, PLEASE remember his family in your prayers.
