So one of my sisters, Jillian (She is the tall, thin, beautiful one...Oh wait that is both of my sisters!) lives in Australia as a missionary. She loves it and works really hard. She also, just for the record has a really sweet boyfriend named Mark...and guess what ladies he has a real authentic Australian accent. How cute is that?!? Anyway, the real reason I making this post is not to tell you all about my sister's boyfriend (I just had to add that...what girl doesn't want a boyfriend with a hot accent?), but to ask for prayers for her. I will give you a copy of the email my mom sent out:
Jillian has been in Melbourne for three weeksrepresenting AIM and working with the church there. She has not beenfeeling well for several weeks and so went to the doctor. Test were done,including an EKG and it was found that she has something seriously wrongwith her heart. The test was not detailed enough to give much informationjust that there was something wrong and her heart was not pumping all theblood from one of the chambers. Much like a 70 year olds persons, is whatshe was told. Jillian and the coordinator at Gosford decide it would be bestfor her to return to Gosford so that she could see a specialist in Sydneyand have more detailed tests. She flew there yesterday and had anechocardiogram. The results will be sent to the Doctor in 5 working daysand she will see the cardiologist them. Please pray for an accuratediagnosis. Pray for Jillian's strength and peace of mind. She is justresting in the Lord right now but is a long way from home and a littlenervous. If you want to send her prayers and love send your e-mails toauzzyaimer@hotmail.com if you have questions please send those to me attonypam@centurytel.net. Thank you so much for your love and prayers onbehalf of our daughter.
So as you can see, my 20 year old sister is having some major heart problems and needs everyones prayers! I will keep everyone updated. Thank you!

Oh, man, that's rough. It's hard enough to have a loved one sick (or to be sick yourself), but it's so much tougher when you're so far away from each other.
I'll be praying for Jillian's peace of mind, and for the doctors to make a quick, accurate diagnosis followed by thorough, successful treatment. I'll keep the whole family in my prayers, too.
...I don't even know what to say...
:(

somehow this doesnt suprise me though...she is in the graham family...if only you hadnt lived near the radiation all those years...
Praying for all of you (fam and friends) and Jillian.
thanks for asking us... i'm on it.
Abba Father, take care of Jillian. Give her people around her to encourage her during the wait for the test results. Give her doctors who are capable and can work to fix the problem. Most of all, give her your presence and peace and healing. Amen.
We will lift her up right now!
