[Magdalen] URGENT prayer request

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a virus that causes infections of the 
lungs and respiratory tract. It's so common that most children have been 
infected with the virus by age 2. Respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-ul) virus 
can also infect adults.

In adults and older, healthy children, the symptoms of respiratory syncytial 
virus are mild and typically mimic the common cold. Self-care measures are 
usually all that's needed to relieve any discomfort.

Infection with respiratory syncytial virus can be severe in some cases, 
especially in premature babies and infants with underlying health 
conditions. RSV can also become serious in older adults, adults with heart 
and lung diseases, or anyone with a very weak immune system 
(immunocompromised).

Madi was in the hospital after birth for a month... I was unaware that she 
had only one kidney (not sure the reason).

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
