I have a prayer request. I am having cancer surgery on Sept 16. Less than two weeks away. I'm having a mastectomy, with reconstruction. It all gets done (or at least started) on the table. Please pray for my fear, which is usually at the manageable level. And that I make it through surgery. I'll be in the hospital for one day. I opted to stay with my surgical oncologist that operated on me two years ago (cancer then too) for many reasons, one being he's THE breast cancer surgeon in Middle GA. Trouble is, after I was diagnosed, I've moved and he's now a bit more than an hour away. Still, I need to stay with him. I just couldn't trust anyone else. Also there's an excellent, skilled plastic surgeon down there that I will have. I don't know how I'll get back and forth afterwards, for the further work on reconstruction, but I will just have to find a way. Thank you for your prayers, my FRiends Shimmer
He is my Rock and I thank you for your kind post. I’m not a native either, I moved, with my family, to middle GA 14 years ago and here near Atlanta about 2 months ago. I’m having a mastectomy, so the chances he will get it all is great, and thank God, since this is my second cancer in this place. I dread this and am apprehensive but there’s no choice here.
Just 2 months and now a major operation. That is tough! I will keep you in my prayers.
Fear does nothing but cloud the mind and poison the moment.
Refuse to do it.
God is in His Heaven.
PRAYERS UP!!!
My prayers for God’s blessing on you for every success. God’s will be done.

Prayers continuing.
Shimmer1 asked me to share with all of you who prayed that she is recovering from surgery. But, in the meantime, she just received the results of her PET scan - no more cancer was found!
She sends a huge thanks to all of you for your prayers!
Please direct your messages to Shimmer1 so that she'll see them. Thanks again.
Praise the Lord! Wonderful Shimmer. Simply Wonderful.
