I have just been over at FREE-4-EVER of Cor. Now she is such a compasionate lady and always there to lend a helping hand.

She told us about Hannah, a 12yr old girl with cancer and also spoke about Katie, now i am sure everyone remember campaign that were held for Katie, but she still needs our help, even if just a card and our prayers, as does Hannah!!

So pretty please go HERE , read the story , maybe there is something you can do.

I will be sending her a card, just to bring a smile and let her know she is being thought of all over the world, same with Hannah.

It breaks my heart when one feels so helpless,but one thing is sure ::::
We serve an AWESOME GOD and HE is a GOD of miracles , so we can never, ever give up hope!!

Thanks for reading and appreciate it that you are popping over to Cor's blog too, Be Blessed!!!
