Please Pray For Alexia Dodrill Wardlow

From Alexia

It has been an incredibly difficult 9 hours. Sunday afternoon, I starting feeling some pain in my groin. This has happened a couple times and just put it off as phantom pain. As the day went on, the pain got worse. I started swelling and had some discoloration in my leg. We decided to go to the ER where they discovered a blood clot in my leg AGAIN and several *small* clots in my legs. I have been transported to St. Vincent and am waiting to find out what’s next. I cannot believe we are dealing with this again but we are trusting God!

Please pray for Alexia and her family!
We love The Dodrill Family…..
