  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Urgent Prayers Please Two Small Boys

Not open for further replies.
Please pray for Austin (6) and James (8) two brothers that were just digonosed with a fatal brain disorder.  Pray for this family as they travel to MN for any treatment possible.  God has the power, please pray.  This is a desperate plea from this family.  Austin, the youngest is already blind, and has lost all mobility, hes very uncomfortable at this time. 

God Bless you all

What is the nature of their disorder?  See this website

http://www.oceanhbo.com/  I have been there and met parents of children that were practically vegetables from birth that are now just like other kids their age.  The Dr. at this facility was the first to use it for these purposes.  There is a little girl that travels to Fl from MN to seek treatment regularly.

This disorder is (ALD) Adrenoleukodystrophy the breakdown of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve cells in the brain and progressive dysfunction of the adrenal gland.  This is inheritied carried by the female and affecting the males in the family.  1 in 21,000 boys come down with the disease. 

Both of these boys are at different stages, the youngest is really bad. 

Make a Wish has contacted the family and has plans for FL in Jan.

Thank you and God Bless
