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.....

Madre de Zac,
Over on LadyX's prayer thread I posted.
" I like to think of myself as her Captain,...
Still, that doesn't stop me from giving her an order to:
Get Well Soon! Marine!
"
Now I'm not *your* Captain, but I'll still give you that order. Now hop to and:
Get Well Soon!

Hi Heels thank you so much for the update & Brad's gramma.. thank you for the ping so we KNOW about the update.
Prayers continue for this brave family. so many challenges in life. I have several friends with advanced cancer who are going with the macrobiotic diet. Based on several mutual friends who had miraculous results with short time given in very advanced cancer. One is now 16 years removed from the cancer which she was given 2 weeks to live.
It is the macrobiotic diet ... Kushi Institute in mass.
I have gone to a modified diet. A few of the things are on my super favo list of foods. challenges persist. It would be easier to be compliant if one was afflicted I am sure.

To: Hi Heels
Unto thee, O Lord, we return with thanksgiving and praise that You are the Great Physician ... it is Your hand that holds healing ... it is Your touch that strengthens ... it is Your love that conquers all.
May it be, Merciful Father, that You will grant the greatest wisdom and skill to ZM's surgeon and medical team ... guide them that they might be used of You as instruments of Your healing. Let them not overlook one cell that would bring her harm, but cleanse her body from all traces of disease. Restore her very breath, O Lord, and give her ease and calm ... overshadow her with a very real sense of Your Presence, that she would be comforted and encouraged.
Strengthen her husband as he ministers to his beloved wife and his Dad ... grant a return to the fullness of health to both of his loved ones, Merciful Father, to the everlasting Glory and Honor of Your Name. Amen ...
