I really need some help. I'll need everyone's help. You see, my older sister has Lupus. To those that don't know what that is, her body is attacking itself, killing off the cells in her body. It's incurable. And, though I wish with all my might that it were not true, I must face the fact that unless a miracle occurs, she will die soon. Even now, i cry as i write, but I have to beg for help. My prayers are already with her, but I need other to pray for her, too. If nothing else, I would like you all to keep her in mind in your prayers. Her name is Jasmine Pizanie. I'm trusting you to not do anything bad with her name, though.
The doctor's are trying to give her Kemo treatments in order to try and knock the Lupus into dormancy. But even with that, she won't last much longer. So, please. I beg of you all, keep my sister in your prayers, and help petition God that He will help her through this, and cure her.
Thank you.

I promised an update, and here it is.
I just had a tearful talk with my sister on the phone. You see, a few days ago, my sister became almost completely blind. There is just too much pressure on her eyes. So they tried a Spinal Tap on her, to try and relieve the pressure. It didn't work, except a little. Now they're taking her to another hospital, where the are going to do another surgery. They are going to drill a hole the size of a thumbnail into her temple, and insert a tube that will drain the pressure. Hopefully. I am terrified about what might happen, though I know it is pale in comperison to hers. God, I don't care what people have told me to do, I will NOT let myself give up! I cannot just let my sister die! I will pray, I'll be on my best behavior, but, God, I won't give up!
I hope you all won't mind, but I want to say another prayer. I just did one, but I want to put one here, for all to see, and to add to if they wish.
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray to thee in the name of thy son, Jesus Christ, in a cry for help. My sister is dying, as you well know. And she is going into another surgery. Lord, I do not know what I could ever say that will make her more deserving of a Miracle than the next person. All that I can say, Lord, is to please, don't take my sister away from me. Please, do not let her continue to suffer. Please, do not make her continue to face the fear, and the knowing, that she may very well be in for many more surgeries. Please, Lord. Help her.
I also pray for my mother. My sister was right when she says that my mom does too much. She is the only one out of my dad, herself, myself, and my sister with a job. She supports out entire family right now, and yet she believes, she knows, that she should be by Jasmine's side. BUt now my mother is sick, and has been for a long while, now. It's from all the stress. Now that my sister is in this, I worry that if my mom does not find some way to relieve her stress, she will soon follow my sister. I worry so much for my family. It seems to be falling apart, and I feel powerless to stop it. Please, Lord. More than anything else, we need a miracle. More than all the prayers for my friends. More than for the need of an answer to the courts. More than anything else we need in our life right now, we need a miracle to save my sister, and at the same time, my mother.
I pray for this, Lord, in the name of my Savior, thy Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
