R.I.P. Penelope Jane London



One week ago today, 4 year old Penelope Jane London lost her battle with N-Myc Amplified Stage IV Neuroblastoma. Penelope fought so courageously, her family called on politicians and pharmaceutical companies to fight for ill children like Penelope, and helped fund research to create new, more efficient treatements for children with Neuroblastoma.
Penelope underwent 3 years of treaments, including the expirimental treatments. Doctors and her family did everything they could to perserve and prolong Penelope's life. After many months of progressive disease, she left her pain behind and went home to be with Jesus. Please pray for her mother and father, John and Catherine, and Penelope's brother and sister, Oliver and Isabelle.
Please join me in lighting a candle in memory of sweet Penelope, to let her family know they are in our thoughts and prayers.
