They’re in our thoughts.

Today at 8pm, locals will be joining in prayer to pray for little Emily and other sick children and their families. Emily is currently in the UK where she underwent surgery to remove a tumour from her abdomen. The surgery went well but she did have some post-op complications, and now the main issue seems to be her blood pressure.

“We are asking you to light a candle outside and join us live to pray together,” said Social Channel on Facebook.

Emily’s mother, Vanessa, thanked everyone for their support during this difficult time. Recently, she also thanked Puttinu Cares for all their support and help to get the surgery Emily needed. “I don’t know how to begin to thank you. You are my second family.  I would love to hug you all. Thank you for everything from Emily and me.”
