My friend Nikki...

Today my friend and teammate from school, Nikki, is having surgery. She thought she had just blown out her knee and went in to have it looked at and discovered that she has a tumor in her femur that has grown so large that it has cracked her kneecap. The doctor's have been afraid she would further damage her leg and potentially be down for 6-8 months so they have really moved things along and scheduled the surgery really quickly. They will remove the tumor and biopsy it at that time. Being that she has already had cancer earlier in her life, she is very worried about the results. She has two teenage boys and she is very involved in their lives. She is also an extremely dedicated teacher. I rarely ask people I know to pray... I don't know why. My friend Nikki really needs all the prayer that she can get from anyone out there who prays. She was very uneasy about the surgery going into it and I am hoping and praying that she can get some good news when she gets out. She works so hard and has overcome a lot of obstacles in her life and she just really needs a break. So, if you pray, please pray for Nikki today.
