The Jelovac Family


Ajla, Sadeta and Muharem

10 years ago, we met the Jelovac family. It was so fun getting to know such a wonderful family, hear about their lives and difficulties in Bosnia and see Fort Worth through their eyes. We all got to experience new things and learned so much from each other. This weekend, we got to spend together! 6 years really only seemed like a few minutes...with the exception of our 2 little girls, only 4 months apart. I am so thankful for our time together and for such dear friends!!! We love you guys!!!

Fekreta (Sadeta's sister), ME and Ajla

Please pray for Ajla. At 13 months, she was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, the most common cancer striking infants and only has a survival rate of 30% at best. Ajla has undergone numerous surgeries, treatments and has spent the majority of her life in the hospital. All of the treatment has also caused heart failure...her heart is currently only functioning at 25%. We rejoice that her last test were negative for cancer, but she still has a long road ahead to be declared cancer free. Please pray for Ajla and the Jelovac family. I know they covet your prayers!
