A few weeks ago, my sister-in-law Renee was diagnosed with a rare form of malignant breast cancer. Because of the nature and stage at which the cancer was detected, standard treatments were deemed insufficient. Thus, Renee is now in clinical trials using a regimen of chemotherapy drugs and radiation that should give her a better fighting chance.
I am among many who are sufficient evidence of the power of prayer in the recovery from cancer. Many here will remember back to 2004 when I was diagnosed with malignant pancreatic cancer and later suffered a prolonged hospital stay with multiple complications following surgery. The type of cancer I had has a mortality rate of 96% within the first 18 months following diagnosis. Renee is in similarly dire condition with her cancer.
Those were dark days for me and mine, but they were brightened with the kind thoughts and prayers of many a Freeper here. It is my hope that many will step up and offer the same generosity of faith, hope and prayer to Renee and her family in their time of need.
My many heartfelt thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
Prayers for Renee and may you continue to be well Prime Choice.
