Prayer Request

My sister, Angie, was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in June of 2002. She has been off an on steroids ever since, along with a bunch of other prescriptions. Recently, she had a major bout. She is going to have to have some tests done at the Children's Hospital in Dallas tomorrow. (there are no pediatric GI doctors locally, her dr is the head GI there). Please pray that he will be able to find out why she is having such a difficult recurence. Anyone familiar with steroids, knows that extended use isn't good for you. Other options include an all liquid diet or even surgery. Please pray for wisdom for the doctor or healing if that is God's will for her. Being a teenager is hard enough without dealing with a long-term disease - she will be 16 in August. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!
