Shiloh Sciacca's Journey

Shiloh's Story(from Shiloh's dad, Geoff, written on his Caring Bridge Site): "At the beginning of August, I brought Shiloh to the ER at Children’s Hospital with the suspicion he might have a hernia. After seeing several nurses and residents, we saw the attending. He brought some relief when he said it didn’t seem to be a hernia, but rather severely swollen lymph nodes. His suspicion was cat scratch disease, and he ordered a series of labs to determine. Shiloh took the IV like a champ, and we played the waiting game for results. However, when a team of five doctors came in the room about an hour and a half later, it was pretty apparent that we weren’t just going home with a prescription. They said in the labs that his blood counts were off, and that they found blasts in his blood. "What does that mean?” I asked. His answer, “It means your son has cancer—leukemia.”

As you can imagine, the Sciaccas are on a journey that comes with many unknowns and many trips in and out of Children's Hospital.  While they are spending every moment praying and taking care of sweet Shiloh, we can be the hands and feet of Jesus and help with the financial burden of it all.  If you feel led, please know that this will help in more ways than anyone could realize.  While praying for complete healing for Shiloh, let's also  help take other burdens off of the Sciaccas.  Thanks in advance for any help you can give.  I can't wait to see God show the Sciaccas this love from you all.

We already reached our first goal!!! Praise the Lord!  Because medical costs are beyond what we can comprehend, we will continue to raise the goal and watch the Lord provide.
