Sarah Beth Napier

i started to write a lengthy blog post about my school life and what my spring break plans are, but i can't help but feel as though i need to tell you about my "cousin"/family friend, Sarah Beth Napier. Sarah Beth was diagnosed with breast cancer in (i believe) 2005. She never let that stop her faith in Jesus Christ. To this day, Sarah praises God for the many things he has done for her in her life and feels as though she is the most blessed person in the entire world. Anyone else in her situation would be blaming God for "what he has done to them" and asking him "why me?" Since her diagnosis of breast cancer, Sarah has had multiple brain tumors, along with multiple brain surgeries. Today, doctors found a new brain tumor sitting in her frontal lobe (the part of the brain behind the forehead) and they believe that there is nothing more they can do. She will soon be going to Hospice in Huntington. everyone PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS AMAZING WOMAN! her story has touched so many lives, including mine. She is loved by so many people in this world. please visit her blog, loveyourguts.com, and leave a comment or send her a card. This exerpt is from my Aunt Jan's blog:

There is a lady from Pea Ridge Baptist Church that is going to make a book of encouragement/memory for Sarah Beth. Her Aunt Leigh Ann sent us all a FB message about it today. I already know what I am going to do. Some special little thing that Sarah Beth and I laugh about almost every time we are together. She has touched so many lives that she doesn't even know about. If you have been reading the blog and know about her journey or you have gotten one of my Prayer Warrior emails asking for prayer, would you please send her a card letting her first know how you came to know her story and what it/she has meant to you. I am seeing in my minds eye a book filled with love and encouragement so big that it is going to be hard to carry. Please make sure that they are in the hands of this wonderful and creative lady by Sunday, March 7th. (addresses below)

Please keep this a secret.

Here are two addresses you may use...

Pea Ridge Baptist Church
5945 East Pea Ridge Road
Huntington, WV 25705

Leigh Ann Creasy
7 Permele Circle
Barboursville, WV

I know she is going to love this more than words can say. I remember when she was first diagnosed there was a huge map of the world hanging in her dining room with little push pins of everywhere people were praying for her. She was overwhelmed by all of the support. And I know that that support is one of the things that makes her such a fighter.


THANK YOU EVERYONE!!

WE LOVE YOU, SARAH BETH!!!
