china ap needs support

One of my yahoo groups had this horrible, tragic story posted. I can't imagine how this new mother must feel:

A family is in China now and evidently the father fell into a diabetic coma yesterday and died. The most recent I have heard is since the China portion of the paperwork has been completed there is no problem with the mother bringing the child home.

Prayers have been requested for the family. What I know is that her nameis Sandy, the child's name is Hannah, and her husband's name was Dennis and their agency is Bethany. They are in Guangzhou now.

foun this link to Sandi's blog a long list of prayers are being added.

The Sheldon's set up a blog on www.youbelong.net (click read journals and then under 'In Country' journals there name is posted). The password for the site is "hannah" and many of their family members have posted there. You may be able to read someone that way.

They told a lot of people to call her senator to do something. Well aparantly the calls came streaming in, and I think I heard on someones blog that she will be able to bring home her daughter on Sat. as scheduled. Scary, eh?

So sad isn't it? I've been praying for them since I heard. It sounds like the community really rallied around her which is wonderful. I am sure being home was bitter sweet, I'll be keeping her in my prayers!
