Prayer Request
Militiaman7 | 8-10-2004 | Militiaman7

Posted on 08/10/2004 8:23:10 PM EDT by Militiaman7

I'm a strong believer in Prayer. Over the years I've asked for prayers for a couple of my Grandchildren. Isaiah and Breanna. Both are fine now thanks mostly to the prayers of Family, Friends and Freepers. Thank you all again.

This week I was informed that I have Cancer of the Esophagus. I won't go into the details except to say I have a good team of Doctors working with me. The Coach of my team is the Great Physician and I trust him completely.

They are hoping for complete remission after treatment of chemotherapy and radiation. Surgery may be an option later on, but it isn't now.

I am literally half the man I was a year ago, I have lost between 70 and 80 pounds, but some of that can be attributed to being diagnosed late last year with diabetes.

He need not have said more...Lord and Father, we give to you a man who had a heart of faith. Take good care of your soldier, as we know you will.

Maranatha.

Merry Christmas to all...a Child borne, a salvation promised.

Well, Militiaman7 will be serving at his final duty station with that Great Physician.
But he'll have to get used to the streets being guarded by United States Marines!

Your post shows how very quickly this happened. The best thing I can say about this is that it appears it he didn't suffer very long.
