JoAnnA Pierrotti and Ron of Moss Hill Studios

Many of you know dear JoAnnA Pierrotti of Moss Hill Studios and JoAnnA's Art Journal...she has shared her struggles with breast cancer over the last couple of years. The love of her life...her dear husband Ron who is a dear sweet soul himself, has been diagnosed with a new brain tumor that is large and growing daily and must be removed surgically immediately. Well Ron was laid off recently and neither of them have medical coverage anymore and the last surgery he had about 9 yrs ago was approx $250,000 Paperwork has been submitted to SS and they originally were told the surgery may be approved for next Thurs the 24th...with so many prayers and people with connections this may now be moved up to Mon or Tues...please please please pray for Ron and JoAnnA and if you have any ability to help out financially that would be greatly appreciated. Without the surgery he has only about a month to live and that would be tragic indeed. Here is the link to JoAnnA's blog so that you can read more detail and keep updated as God's hand is moving in this situation to be sure.
