Prayer Request

If you would be so kind and remember Trinity in your prayers. Some of you may already be aware of this situation but those who aren't let me fill you in on what's going on with her. She has been having a very tender and itchy scalp and has experienced a significant amount of hair loss. The doctor's determined that she has Alopecia, an auto-immune disorder that causes you to lose your hair. We have been going back and forth with insurance and the doctor's office trying to get a referral for her to be seen by a specialist at Children's Medical Center.

The doctor's have to review some clinical paperwork but said that she's at the top of the list for the 1st available appointment since her condition is pretty aggressive. They hope to have things worked out soon. I'm praying that they can see her right away because she's losing hair daily and it's getting difficult to cover up the bald patches, especially since she has such fair skin. It's getting to be very noticeable.

She seems to be doing okay but has started to notice that she's different and has cried a few nights because she doesn't want to lose anymore hair. It's hard when people come up to you ask you what's wrong with your child or just stare at her like she's a freak. Lord, please give us strength!

Thanks for your prayers, Kendi
