Folks, I just received some bad news and I wanted to share it with those of you who particiapte on the forum.
FReeper SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST's wife of 27 years was diagnosed with advanced cancer earlier today. BlackbirdSST asked that I place this post on the forum and request prayers for SoFarRight and him. He would also appreciate it if you would include prayers for their family. I would suggest their friends could use them as well.
He was headed back to the hospital to be with her and try to come to grips with what is taking place.
He states that with prayer and grit, they will overcome this.
I'm not the person who generally posts things like this on the forum, but my heartfelt prayers will be lofted on their behalf this evening and beyond.
I'm sure our fellow FReepers SoFarRight and BlackbirdSST would appreciate the expression of your kind thoughts on this thread this evening and over the next few days.
Please keep them in your thoughts.
On behalf of BlackbirdSST, I thank you in advance.
Prayers for you and your wife.
You are both in my prayers, for healing, strength and faith.
My thoughts and prayers are with both of these fine folks, and I hope they have the strength and stamina for a full recovery. I'll keep them in my prayers and ask for God's special blessings for them.
Prayers being offered up.
Father,
We praise your mighty name! Yours is the name above all names, including the names of cancer and illness. We lift up to you SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST and all their family for complete salvation, total healing, and calm assurance in the face of the Deceiver. Fill them and their caregivers, both medical and friendly, with divine inspiration and guidance. Make them aware, we pray, of your constant and never-failing presence, O Lord our God. In Jesus' name,
Amen!
Prayers for a miracle.
Prayers up big time...NOTHING is too big or too difficult for Him.
God bless this family, give them strength and comfort in their hours of greatest need.
Prayers up!
May God bless you and give you strength and healing.
Continued prayers.
Big prayers up!
Hope the situation is looking up for your family. Our thoughts and prayers are still with you.
