Urgent!!!

My daughter called, she is an RN in the Surgical Trauma ICU at Duke. She is also a Teen Leader with her church. One of the teens, Emily, age 15, is in critical condition due to liver failure. She is in need of a liver transplant within the next two days. If she does not receive the transplant, this young girl will die. Please pray for her and her family. They are type matching family members first and then go from there. If they find a live donor, the recovery for the donor is long and painful.

Needless to say, the family, friends, church members, etc. are in shock. This young girl has been well up until last night when she said that she wasn't feeling well. Pray for the strength of the family, and wisdom for the doctors and nurses.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
