FW: prayer request

Can you please pray for our friend who has had a round of chemo that is causing a lot of health issues. She normally isn't too affected by it but this time she is too tired to get out of bed so she isn't eating or drinking anything.

Her name is Carol and we (family and friends) would appreciate any prayers.

Thank you

Lynn and Terry
