~ Meet Shelby Rose ~

Shelby Rose is my niece by marriage. Shelby is one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen, and have had the opportunity to hold and love and be loved in return.
Shelby Rose is now 11 months old, she is a Special little girl in so many ways. you would have to really know her to understand why she is so special. but since everyone doesn't know her or will ever have the opportunity to meet her. Let me tell you a little about her.
Shelby was born with Spina Bifida. currently she has hydrocephlus, Kidney damage, "Vesicostomy" - due to neurogenic bladder-reflux.
little Shelby is a really good little girl for all the pain she has been through. Looking at Shelby you would never think that there was ever anything wrong with her. she seldom cries and always has the beautiful smile on her face like the one here on her picture.
Shelby goes through PT & OT Therapy twice a week. she has slight leg movement. just a few weeks ago her mom noticed something about her little hands. She immediately called the doctor, and a therapist went over, some of the mucles are not fully developed in her little hands, so she is going through therapy for that and also for her shoulder because, she can lift her arm a certain height and it won't go up any higher without her mom's assistance.
Shelby has tubes that were placed in her head surgically, to drain fluid into. her little stomach, because she gets a fluid buildup, this helps keep her out of the hospitals.

Little Shelby Rose is in need of prayer, she has a loving christian mom and dad that are Believeing God for her healing, won't you join me in prayer for Little Shelby Rose and for her mom Brigitte and dad Kelly too, this really is hard on them although they won't admit to that to the full extent...



Thank you and God Bless each of you that humble themselves before the Lord and lift this little family, and this darling little girl to the Lord in prayer, I know He is in the Miricle working busisness and I am believeing with them that God will do a mighty work with their little daughter. shes an angel God bless her in a mighty and wonderful way. In Jesus name.
