She has done such a great job of caring for this site and all of those listed on this site for a very long time. I am thankful that someone had placed our daughter Ella on here while we were fighting for her life. The prayers were certainly felt and appreciated.

I am very open to any suggestions people may have to improve our site or any other advice.  Also if you have any other requests or changes needed to links etc. Please email us @ safehavenblog@yahoo.com.

One last post

To all Safe Haven readers,
I don't know how to say what is on my heart right now. Safe Haven has been such a part of my life for a long time now, and letting it go is hard. But it is time for me to pass the torch and move on. I believe the Lord has used this blog is huge ways, maybe even more than we can understand, and I believe it will only continue to touch many more. The power of prayer is miraculous. Thank you so much for checking in on the prayer requests posted here, and for praying. I am sorry that the last several months this blog has been neglected, but that is soon going to change. I am giving the blog over to my good friend Jen, that I actually met through this blog, and many of you have prayed for her. I thank her publicly for the help she has been lately, and for taking this on. God is moving me on to different things, so I ask for your prayers for that.
I will keep checking on these sweet families, and praying for them daily.
I just wanted to say goodbye, and thanks so much.
Blessings,
Christy

They all have forms of mitochondrial disease~Mitochondria exist in nearly every cell of the human body, producing 90 percent of the energy the body needs to function.  In a person with mitochondrial disease, the mitochondria are failing and cannot convert food and oxygen into life-sustaining energy.  For many, mitochondrial disease is an inherited genetic condition, while for others the body's mitochondria can be affected by other environmental factors.  What is happening with these little ones is that the mitochondria (little power houses) are not getting to where they need to go in the body. This causes respiratory, liver, kidney and other sorts of organ failure. It also makes the person extrememly immune deficient and makes it nearly impossible to fight off infection.. be sure to visit the UMDF.org for more info, there is a faq section..

a few requests...

Please pray for Ashley, she had a liver transplant a while back and it is now sick..

Please pray for Beckhams mom kim, she is expecting a new little girl and was just diagnosed with thyroid cancer.

Please pray for Cal. We lost my daughter to a mitochondrial disease last May, so I speak from experience when I say this is a monster, it robs you of your healthy children so fast..

Emerson and her family could use some prayer right now, She was just given another, not so good, diagnosis..go on over and love on them..

Rebekah is having surgery on Nov. 3, please be in prayer for the doctors wisdom and for her to have a successful surgery..
