Zac's Mom Update-Prayer Request

Posted on 04/30/2006 9:25:05 PM PDT by Hi Heels

As many of you know, Zac's mom has been sick for the last couple of months. I got a message from her husband, Tom, yesterday and the following email.

"ZM is gaining a little bit each day, but is still very weak and needs the oxygen in order to breath comfortably. Any small amount of exercise just poops her out and movement brings pain. They had to cut their way through muscles in her back/shoulder to get to the growth on her lung so they say that will be a long time healing. She is beginning to get more range of motion without pain but it is a slow growing process. She is now getting to her computer for 15 -20 minute once each day, but has to much pain to stay longer or try to type so mostly she is reading email and is weeks behind with that. She has little or no appetite so is eating very little and as a result is losing some weight.

We are visiting with the oncologist on Monday 05/01. However, I believe we will have to put off chemo until she heals more from the surgery. I am told Chemo would slow or stop the healing process. So it seems likely that she will not begin treatment for at least a couple more weeks.

Thanks for the love, prayers and good wishes. Tom"

I know that all her FRiends here have been praying and sending their most loving thoughts ZM'S way. Please help her by continuing or even doubling your prayers for her. Also, most of us have enjoyed her talent with graphics, and the many times she has posted something really wonderfully done for our troops or even for one of us individually. What I'd like you do do is to give her some love on this thread. Get creative and give her something great to read. Thanks, and God bless.....

I spoke to Tom this afternoon. ZM is holding her own, still recovering from the removal of several tumors and a portion of one of her lungs. The doctors are trying to enrich her health to withstand the chemotherapy that is to come. She is unable to talk or chat on the computer right now due to the pain of the operation and as her body adapts to having the partial lungectomy (sp?). She's still in good spirits, and thanks all of you for the prayers and wonderful thoughts the last couple of months. Thank for for continuing to keep her in your prayers and in your hearts.

Prayer for Zac's Mom
 
HEAR ME, O LORD...
Our Father -
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come;
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
 
Hail Mary -
I pray for the impossible.
Hail Mary, full of grace! The Lord is with you; blessed art Thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray
for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
Glory Be -
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the
beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

God Bless you Zac's Mom
