I have just learned that my cousin David is in ICU at John's Hopkins after being diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. He had his pancreas (with tumor) and damaged gall bladder removed in emergency surgery Christmas Eve. He is recovering but is still in ICU.
I ask all of you for your prayers for his quick recovery. David and Faith celebrated their 31st wedding anniversary earlier last month. They have a daughter and two lovely young granddaughters, Anna 4 & Rosalie 1.
Updates as I get them from his sister.
Heartfelt prayers for David and all who love him. May God put His hands over the situation and give healing and comfort to all of you.

May God bless you, and David, his family, and all who know and care for him. May God give them strength; the Holy Spirit guide and comfort them, and Jesus be with them!
That is a rough diagnosis. My prayers for David and especially for you. God Will Be Done.
Prayers up, FRiend.
I join in earnest prayer for your cousin David!
Dear LonePalm, Tenderest prayers for our Lord’s healing Hand upon cousin David. May He watch over you and David and your families and comfort your minds and hearts. All things are possible when we trust in the Savior and Great Healer. May God bless.
I am still with you, LonePalm, in prayer for David, you, and your family.
In fact, “I am with you,” reminds me of the promise of Jesus, who is holding all of you very close.
When time and will permit, please let us know how David is doing.
God turns all things to good. May His loving grace shine upon you and bring you comfort and rest.
He is at home and in good spirits. He is trying to gain some weight back in preparation for starting Chemo-therapy the middle of next month. I offered to send him 40 pounds but he said he had to do this on his own. He did say that it was a unique position for him.
He thanks all of you for your prayers as do I.

Thank you for the update!
Prayers will continue.
Good News.
Prayers for him and the family.
Hugs for the granddaughters.

Thanks for the update. Chemotherapy is no fun, but tell David it’s important to keep his spirits up, because I have found it works best if you do. Will continue to pray for his recovery.
Grateful for the news, LonePalm. I’m glad things are “on course” and focused for David. Tell him that he is entirely welcome, and the prayers will continue.
Regarding the Latin, I agree. He must.
Thank you for the update. May God bless!
Very good news!! Prayers continuing.......
I will continue to include David and his family in my daily prayers ......stay safe LonePalm.
