Please keep baby Phoebe and her family in your prayers. She is 2 years old and was diagnosed yesterday with a cancerous brain tumor (AT/RT). They can use every prayer and ounce of encouragement they can get right now.
Please also be in prayer for Tripp and his family. He is not doing well, and things are getting bad quickly. He has suffered so much, as has his mom. Please lift them both up tonight.

A few prayer requests
Send some
prayers to Joshua. He’s having more pain and his
left eyelid is drooping.
Aviana is
busy working on getting her muscles stronger and sitting more. She’s doing great! Give her mom, Jen, some encouragement
too. It’s not always easy trying to
figure out what the “right” decisions are, but I think she’s doing a pretty
amazing job J
Please pray
for Amy. She is going through a very hard time and is
in need of support.
Keep Janet and her family in your thoughts and prayers.
They just lost their sweet furbaby Max after 14 years.
Say some
prayers for Rebekah that her recent coughing is not due to aspiration.
Continue to
keep Noah in your prayers. He’s having some fluid
retention that is causing swelling.
Don't miss the giveaway on the previous post! It's open until tomorrow at 8pm EST.
Have a blessed night!
Amy
A giveaway! And a favor...
Good Tuesday to all! I've had a hard time getting back into the swing of things now that my kids are back to school after Christmas break and my husband and I are back to work. It was such a nice break, but the smack of reality stings ;) I thought to brighten the day a bit, we'd do a little giveaway!
Up for grabs is a $10 Amazon.com gift code! One winner will be picked randomly from the comments left on this post telling us what brought you to Safe Haven, and if you have any thoughts or suggestions for the site. The code will be sent via email to the lucky winner. I'll leave the giveaway open until 8pm EST tomorrow night. Good luck!
I also want to ask a favor of you all. If you have a personal blog or website, give Safe Haven a "shout out". I know that things slowed down here quite a bit over the last little while, but both Jen and I are very excited to see things get hopping again. We'd like to see old folks come back, and welcome new ones as well. We can't ever have enough people praying and lifting each other up!!
I should have some updates later this evening, but for now I'd like to share a big praise!!! Jamie's husband, Jayson has finally made the decision on where Jamie's care and rehab will continue! This has been a huge burden on his heart recently and it's wonderful to have that weight off his shoulders. Stop by and give them some encouragement!!
I look forward to reading your comments, and again, good luck! :)
Until next time,
Amy

Some updates, prayer requests and an introduction...
Hi all! This is my first time contributing to this blog and I'd like to start off by thanking Jen for the opportunity! My name is Amy, and I will be one of a small team of gals who will be helping Jen keep the blog updated going forward. A little about me... I'm a married mom of 2 kids (12 & 10). I'm also a full-time financial planning assistant for a fully integrated financial holdings company. But enough about me, let's get to some updates!
Jamie B and her husband Jayson could really use some prayers and encouragement. Jamie was found unconscious in her garage on December 2 and has been recovering from a traumatic brain injury since then. In addition to her continued recovery, they are currently having some issues with which type of facility Jamie should be going to and trying to work things out with insurance.
Ashley is 3 days free of antibiotics for an infection, but there are still a lot of issues and a lot of decisions that need to be made. Take a moment to leave some encouragement for them.
Keep Aviana in your prayers as she works on sitting and standing.
Brayden is doing well, but both of their vans were in accidents within 2 days of each other, so they could use prayers as they deal with their transportation obstacles.
Brody is making some progress in therapy, and his mom is moving into a new chapter as well. They can always use encouragement and prayers.
Carly continues to do well and had a really fun Halloween!
Christian's parents have some decisions to make regarding potential surgeries for their little man and could use some prayers.
Please continue to keep Eli in your prayers, he's very sick!
Give praise for Elijah, he's walking, something the doctors said he'd never do!
Emerson just spent her first Christmas at home in 5 years!
Gaines is doing fantastic! Off oxygen, growing and enjoying life!
Sweet Gracie is raising money for "The Canaries"! Leave them some prayers and encouragement!
An update from Grant's blog: "Grant has continued to thrive in his Post Fontan life. He is playing hard and able to keep up with the other kids and as a result, he is also napping better and sleeping more consistently at night than ever before. It is incredible to me. It has taken me a few months of getting solid REM sleep to not still feel exhausted all of the time, but slowly I am starting to remember what it feels like to not be a walking zombie! "
Continue to pray for Harmonee as she battles against rejection.
Jace's mom updated their page recently: "My lesson learned from 2011 is that you can't predict the future. Well, we all knew that right, but to truly be able to experience an improvement in Jacob's mitochondrial disorder is something we didn't expect. Noone could have predicted that, but it did happen! That is what I will bring with me in to the new year." Great news!
Please keep Jared's sister, Braylynne, and their entire family in your prayers as they are dealing with the effects of Jared's condition on his sibling. We sometimes forget that illnesses and conditions effect the entire family and they can always use our prayers and support!
Keep Joshua in your prayers. He's been having some "off" days.
An update on Josiah's blog: "We have only 5 days til disney. The kids are excited, especially Isaiah. I think this will be a once in a lifetime trip. We will be cramming so many things into a week, i will need to come home and sleep for a week. I am done working now as of this week. Something will come up for me, I just hope soon. I want some changes to happen soon,I want to move, and we really need to so we can accomadate Josiahs needs better. Its getting really hard to carry him up flights of stairs to bed, to the tub, no wheelchair access into my house. Its just really cramped in here with all his medical stuff" Keep them in your prayers!
Karina's mom could use some encouragement. Please take a moment to visit and leave her some uplifting words.
Things are very tough for Kate and her family. Keep them in your prayers and send them some encouragement.
Maddie is doing well, but Brandon is still deployed. Pray for his safe return SOON!
Noah's mom has posted a recent update worth reading.
Please be sure to let the families know you've stopped by and leave them an uplifting word when you have time. It seems like a little thing, but it means a lot!

So, I love this blog, and agreed to take it over because I honestly thought I would have more time to really keep it up.. and honestly I haven't had time to keep this or my personal blog up.. I haven't had a chance to blog hop or check in on anyone in a long time. So this is my question, for now is there anyone out in bloggy land that would care to take on updating now and then? I will still help whenever possible, but would LOVE to have someone that has time and willingness to assist...if so leave a comment here (with your email address) and I will email you with details..
Also I am going to try to update some of the lists while I have a few minutes..if you have any updates or want to add/remove/rename (i.e any changes) please let me know here in the comments..
~~~~~~~~~~~~ A few requests for now...
I did want to ask for some urgent prayer for 2 year old Eli and his family. He became gravely ill on Christmas eve and has been fighting for his life..
Also pray for sweet Noah E and his family. He is on Hospice and is really struggling to hang on..pray for peace and comfort and healing for both of these families..
