Please pray for LukeUPDATE

Our 6 year old grandson Luke broke his foot about 6 weeks ago. Very mysterious break as no injury was noticed. He just woke up one morning complaining of his foot hurting, we noticed it was swollen, became worse during the day so he went to ER that evening. We were referred to Pedi Ortho doc for next morning, who looked at Xray and made diagnosis of fracture on top of the foot. While she was putting the cast on his leg, she noticed a grape size lump on his knee. She thought it was a foreign body that was surrounded by white cells, said we would look at it with xray when his cast came off. 4 weeks later, the lump is now lemon sized, shows nothing on xray, but on ultrasound reveals a solid mass. We had hoped and prayed it was a fluid filled cyst. He is having an MRI on Monday to "map" the blood vessels for surgery. The good news is it doesn't seem to bother him.
We would appreciate all prayers for this little guy. We are scared beyond belief. We have turned this over to God, but cannot quell the anxiety we are feeling. We are truly blessed to have Luke in our lives. Thanks

bell, I can't imagine how tough a situation your family is in. I will pray for God to give your family strength and peace, and bring healing to Luke's little body. God bless you!

Prayers to all. He seems to be a tough young man. He's very brave.

Prayers that is nothing serious. Also prayers that he continues to be the positive force he is right now.

Luke came through the surgery just fine. Got the pathology report back today. NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!! Apparently this was something called a granuloma. We are overjoyed and appreciate everyone who prayed for him . Thanks so much.
Now we are off to Austin Park and Pizza to celebrate.
