Our friend, and longtime freeper, PennsylvaniaMom is in dire need of prayers. She has become a dear friend here on Free Republic - especially on the morning Quinn in the Morning talk show thread, to those of us who have been meeting since the thread was started many years ago.
Please, please, please add her to your daily prayers. Here is what she sent to me:
"I havent been on your thread (or Gregs) all summer.
Thought that heat, no AC at the house burning the candle on both ends, and just plain old age caught up to me. Throw in back pain and i slept in as long as I could each morning and took a lot of Advil. Too much which might end up saving my life.
I ended up on crutches, which broke open a small lesion, growing under the skin of my armpit pit. I bandaged it. When I started throwing up blood the routine questions of the ER Doctor at Westmoreland started the chain of events that lead to a ct scan (last week); endo and gastro scope that ended in 2 transfusions; a helicopter ride to UPMC (dont remember any of this); and 30hrs on a vent.
They found masses in my liver, pelvis, and breast. They dont do estimates of time left, but they give me hope. Ill be treated OP once they get me walking again. Im BOTH estrogen and progesterone positive. ....hormone therapy will be used first to see how I respond. The 3rd type (my mind is fuzzy) I test negative for. But two of three kinds of receptors is good." _______________________________________
Again please add her to your prayer lists say a novena, and pray for the her family and the grandbabies she loves so much.
Please continue to keep our FRiend Maryann (PaMom) in your prayers.
Update: Message from Maryann:
” have wanted to write to each of you individually and thank you for the supportt and nice cards prayers and thoughts. It just hasnt worked the way I planned.
I m now at UPMC Magee cancer center ). Ive only had one chemo treatment due to a laundry list of side effects.
I had a vision scare w/occular migraines (like looking thru a kaleidoscope) but they think it was an odd side effect of antibiotics (I had cdiff) .
Chemo to start again this week (i am taking physical therapy I have trouble getting around.)
Ii hope to be home again (was home 1.5day in past month. Camein on sept 9.
Please keep me in prayer.
Should have started
Earlier, but now groggy
With love mynFRiemds, Maryann”
Prayers of comfort and healing being offered. Please tell her we do hold her in our thoughts and prayers
I have been praying for her and thinking of her often. I miss her witty posts and sense of humor. She would have had good insight at the craziness of this election.
PaMom is in my every prayer.
May the Lord reach down and heal you, I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
And mine. May our heavenly Father heal her completely and give her additional fruitful time among us and, if that not be His will, then to prepare a special place for her in heaven where her pain and tears will be no more.

Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensès.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car c'est à Toi qu'appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bènie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Lord God, Jesus Christ, our Healer and Savior, be with Thy servant in the hour of her trials and grant her complete healing.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
are prayers requests for dogs allowed?

I will remember you in my prayers at adoration tonight.
Someone PLEASE tell her to look up www.chrisbeatcancer.com
Sorry to come out of the woodwork like this. Greg told me and I’ve totally forgotten about it. No excuse for that. She’s in my prayers now.
O great St. Peregrine, you have been called “The Mighty,” “The Wonder-Worker,” because of the numerous miracles which you have obtained from God for those who have had recourse to you.
For so many years you bore in your own flesh this cancerous disease that destroys the very fibre of our being, and who had recourse to the source of all grace when the power of man could do no more. You were favoured with the vision of
Jesus coming down from His Cross to heal your affliction. Ask of God and Our Lady, the cure of the sick whom we entrust to you.
Especially PennsylvaniaMom
Aided in this way by your powerful intercession, we shall sing to God, now and for all eternity, a song of gratitude for His great goodness and mercy.
Amen.
