Prayer Request For My Wife
09/6/13 | pgkdan

Posted on 09/06/2013 6:21:06 AM PDT by pgkdan

My wife is very ill and in need of prayer. She was diagnosed with blood clots in her legs several weeks ago and was put on Cumadin and sent home. The Cumadin didn't work, she developed additional clots and several migrated to her lungs. She was sent to the ER and then admitted to the hospital and a CT scan was ordered. The scan showed several clots in her lungs and it also showed a mass on her liver. The oncologist first diagnosed liver cancer and since the mass was relatively small we were hopeful that surgery and a round of chemo would take care of it. Yesterday the oncologist informed my wife that her situation was 'much worse than I originally thought' and told her that the tumor on her liver was a met, not a primary tumor. However, they haven't yet found out what her primary cancer is...they told her she metatastic disease but can't tell her what cancer.

We're both in a fog and feeling lost. I feel like I've been through hell these last three days, I can't imagine what my dear wife must think! She's putting on a brave face and trying to stay positive but this week has been brutal.

Please pray for her. Pray for healing and for her comfort. She is my wife of thirty years, my best friend and soul mate. I will be absolutely lost without her...

Hi everyone...just a quick update because we got some pretty good news this morning. My wife saw the Dr. this morning before she started her infusion.(she's there for 8 hours today) He told us that her tumor markers are indicating that her tumors are shrinking and she's having a great response to the chemo! Tney are following CEA, which is perfectly normal now. It was originally 75 and it's now 1.5. Below 5 is normal. They're also following CA 19-9 and that's still very high. Normal is below 37 and she's at 211, but she was originally over 400!

Thank you all for your prayers and your support...the Lord hears the cry of the poor!

Good to hear that positive results from therapy are measurable. I hope she continues to deal with the therapy without too much discomfort.

“Have had 2 two week stays in the hospital on heparin drips where I could not even get out of bed for 2 weeks.”

We’ll include you in these prayers for healing. What GOD does for one, He will surely do for another. Nothing is impossible with GOD!

JESUS does not extinguish HOPE. HE is the HOPE of the world!
