PRAYER REQUESTED BY EPOW

Original post here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1879625/posts?page=11#11

I am learning that cancer is a brutal enemy. My 41 year old son was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of non-Hodgkins lymphoma. He's on chemotherapy and doing well on it so far thank God, although we aren't yet used to seeing him bald. His oncologist says his cancer is a type that usually responds well to chemo and that he has a very good 10 year prognosis.

One other problem is that he's an airline pilot, and according FAA rules he won't be able to fly a commercial aircraft until his cancer has been cured or in remission for one full year. Of course he has a mortgage and all the other usual bills that a family with 2 kids has, and his wife's small business will be their only source of income for at least a year after his sick pay runs out.

I have never asked for anything like this in the 9 years I have been Freeping, but I would greatly appreciate anyone who will join me in offering a prayer for his full recovery.

Prayers Said.
I have a friend who came thru this same disease...so it can be beat.

May the Lord give you and yours strength and wisdom, closeness and love.

9 years is a long time. Please don’t be shy.
Welcome in from the cold.

Be not afraid, you have called on people who thirst to see God’s healing power and love move on the earth.

God is with you always nearer than you think.
