Prayer Request for My Son [Update @ 241]
my heart | 072909 | babyfreep

Posted on 07/29/2009 5:05:06 PM PDT by babyfreep

Dear FReeper FRiends,

My son has recently found that out that he has lymphoma. He underwent surgery today and they completely removed one of his lymph nodes. It will be sent off for more tests to find out exactly what kind of cancer it is and how to treat it. It was first thought he had thyroid cancer, however, that's not being considered anymore.

I am in Texas and he is in San Diego at the Balboa Naval Medical Center. He was stationed on the USS George Washington and they were underway when he discovered the lump in his thyroid. They hit port in Australia and he was flown back to Japan they did few more tests and then he flew to San Diego where he is now. His wife is from there and he has in-laws and other relatives in SD. He is a very strong, courageous and capable young man.

We've also recently found out that he and his wife have their first baby on the way.

I've never been one to post on the prayer threads, but I do read them and I do pray for the individuals and their families. I believe whole-heartedly in the power of prayer.

Please pray for my son's speedy recovery.

Thank you so much. Lauren (my d-i-l) just sent me a text message and said she was taking him home from the hospital right now.

He’ll be healing from the operation for a few days, then I know he’ll be anxious to get this treatment going. He told me he feels so rotten that this had to happen right at the same time that we found out about the new baby coming. He hates that the attention is on him and not his beautiful pregnant wife. Because of all this, she hasn’t even been able to make her first doctor visit, yet. :-(
I know things will settle down for them soon.

Glad to hear that he has the operation behind him. Prayers that the treatments are exactly what is needed for successful recovery of good health and that his good health is restored by the time of their baby’s arrival.

Keeping them in prayer.
