Avery Huffman Strong!

I'm going to skip the travel blog today to tell you about a very courageous young girl named Avery Huffman. You can go  to Avery's Caring Bridge link to read exactly what is happening and any udates, but Avery has been diagnosed officially with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG).

Avery Huffman
She is the granddaughter of a very good friends of ours Olivia Huffman and John Huffman, daughter of friends Brandon and wife Amanda Huffman, and niece of Jeremy, Natalie and Alyse (and spouses)!

We are just heartbroken because in the natural this has a 100 percent mortality rate. The average life expectancy for a child with DIPG is 1-2 months (usually with no treatment or radiation), to 9 months to even between 1-2 years, the 9 months to 2 years usually the result of radiation.

Please pray fervently for Avery and the Huffman family! Even with insurance there are many costs involved and there has been a GoFundMe account set up for the Huffman family. It has been very successful but there will still not be enough so anything will help. The link for the Avery's Go Fund Me is HERE!

Above all things, please pray! Pray for healing for that which is impossible! Pray for peace of mind in this wonderful family of God, Pray that all will draw closer to God through this terrible situation because we know that through God all things are possible!

God Bless you all,
God Bless the Huffman Family!!!!
We love you so much!!
Brian and Patty
