A little prayer

Hello friends
We are way behind reading blogs but we really hope all of you are doing well. I not only have little time now, helping with my baby sister's care, but I am also sad and worried because of daddy's health. He's been dealing with Crohn's disease for more than 20 years medication-free by personal choice, and he did very well. This year's checkup test came up really bad so he started medications and after months under treatment things are getting much worst. He has painful episodes often, inflammation is spreading to other vital organs, has lost a lot of weight, and the next medication to be used is very strong, will weaken his immune system dramatically and has bad - even deadly - possible side effects. Daddy refused to take this new medicine but he is changing his mind because he feels too sick. Now, this all comes to our life soon after my parents had started a new life together and decided to have a baby. They have been saving big time to buy a home sometime soon. They don't know what to do now; what the future will bring them. Daddy keeps saying what if this, what if that.
So all I am asking here is for a little prayer for his health, and for him to take the best decision regarding his care. Thank you with all my heart.
Coco

Dear Coco
We will for sure send little prayers for your dad. That is a mean disease,,,,
A young gal we know has it and she takes Remicade- she just had a baby like your little sister Coco.
She does good with that medication,
We keep our fingers crossed that the doctors find the right medicine for your dad.
I know you worry, so lets believe in hope.
love

Oh my sweet Coco,

I hate to hear that your daddy is facing this ugly disease. I will be praying for him and I want to encourage to always get a second opinion from multiple doctors if you aren't 100% comfortable with the advice you are getting, ok?

I am sending big hugs to you and the whole family!!

xoxo
