There are a lot of things still up in the air where little Aaron’s health is concerned. He’s got a long hard battle ahead of him.
While the family, friends and voluneers are most grateful for the monetary donations and those who have come out to support the entire Tanner family – what Aaron needs more are your prayers.
A prayer warrier reaches out and touches God’s heart and can move mountians. Those fervent prayers on his behalf are needed on a daily basis. However, I’m hoping we can encourage you to make a special effort to pray for Aaron for one-hour the day of his surgery. I’m certain the family would be comforted, knowing that someone is praying for Aaron during his heart transplant.
If you are praying for Aaron and/or you can commit to praying the day of his surgery, please respond to this post and let the family know you are supporting them and praying for Aaron’s heart.
“Dear Heavenly Father, You are intimately aware of the struggle Aaron Tanner is experiencing. Lord, we pray the Balm of Gilead over Aaron and his little body. We pray for strength in his heart muscles and valves. We pray for a total healing in his body, mind and spirit.
Lord we ask you to guide the doctors and the nurses as they minister to Aaron. We pray for strength for his family and success with the fundraising efforts. I know that You are able and that just like in Bible times, You can heal Aaron.
Prayer Request Update
They are planning to move Aaron to UCLA, possibly as soon as Monday (September 28, 2009).
Elizabeth has been informed that the wait for a kidney and a heart can be as much as 100 – 190 days. But that does not include the power of prayer even if it is. We will start that countdown in a couple days. Please pray they find a kidney and heart for Aaron quickly.

I just became aware of your great need. I will pray for Aaron as well as the entire Tanner family. My family feels blessed by God to be able to commit to a monthly monetary donation and we pray that others will be able to do the same. As it is told in Deuteronomy 31:6, fear not God goes with you.

Dear Mark and Elizabeth, we again asked our congregation to join us in prayer for little Aaron and for your whole family; know that the Lord will not burden you with more than He knows you can bear. We pray that He lays His healing hand on Aaron, that He continue to guide the hospital staff with their knowledge and talent and bring peace to you. God bless you.
I am praying for Aaron and his family.
Thank you all for the continued support the notes are food for our Soul. We can make it through each day because of the prayers and words of wisdom and encouragement of all of those everywhere this is the hardest experience I can even imagine, but with all your love We can do this…
Hi! Praying for the Tanner family! Thee Lord will make a way some how! May God continue to Bless and provide every need.

Is Aaron still waiting for his transplant? All of the information I am reading seems to be out of date. I am also waiting for a transplant at UCLA. I will pass your information on to all of the wonderful prayer warriors who have been supporting me.
Dear Angel,
I have requested an update from the family. We should be hearing something back from Elizabeth soon.
Angel,
Thank you for your prayers. There was a recent updated News story about Aaron on ABC. I will add a link to the site. Yes, Aaron is still waiting for a heart and kidney transplant.
We have been able to come back to Brentwood to wait. It was too hard being away from home for 9-months. We just arrived back home last Saturday and Aaron has to go to San Francisco, UCSF for dialysis, 3-times-a-week. Aaron is visited by a nurse at home, he requires 24-hr medical care but is in good spirits.
I am trying to keep updated but with everything, it has been increasingly difficult as we also have 2 other boys to care for. We will go back to UCLA when organs are available for him. We are going to be seen for his Dr. of Cardiology at UCLA and UCSF. So, we will do the best we can. I am trying my best to keep everyone updated. Thank you!
We will be praying for Angel.
