Unfortunately it appears that the radiation therapy was only a temporary window for Joan (ZM). I spoke with Tom today and he told me that she had about eight days of renewed health and spent that time with him and her grandchildren and children. After the eight days, the effects of the radiation faded. Her blood pressure is dropping, she is on morphine and her doctor has placed her in hospice. Tom has tried to get online to post something, but he just can't bring himself to leave her side right now. Please continue to pray for this wonderful woman and her loving family at this difficult time. Thanks.

I ping the PS list because we all admired the great creations she gave us but also we admired her thoughtfulness and passion.

Think fine thoughts and ask God to give her comfort and peace.

It is unto You, O Lord, that we return, with tearful eyes yet praising hearts, for it is Your hand that holds the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:10. Thank You that it is from You that we receive life, both mortal and eternal, and that You, not man, are the Author and Finisher of our Faith.

May it yet be, Merciful Father, that You will draw Zac's Mom back from the edge of this life, that her beloved Tom and family might rejoice with many more days in her presence. Comfort their hearts as they stand in anguish over her ... calm their fears as they dread a time without her ... reassure them that parting is but momentary yet eternal life and joy are forever.

Make unto Yourself a sanctuary where Joan now lies, that she might commune with the Heavenlies in words and melodies heard only by her, that she not be afraid. Surround her family and friends with the sweetest spirit of love, that they might rejoice in the midst of sorrow. And may it be, Merciful Father, that she will will rise up to be with her family yet a little while longer, to the everlasting Glory and Honor of Your Name.

Hear our prayer, O Lord ...
Hear our prayer, O Lord ...
Incline thine ear to us
And grant us thy peace. Amen ...

"The Doctors have all said they are astonished with her recovery/progress. They are now referring to her as their September miracle."

Even though the update is not very good news, we will pray now for an October miracle. God bless and continue to keep Zac's Mom comfortable in her fight against this disease. May she rest peacefully without pain.

Holy Father,

We praise You for who You are---our God of grace and mercy. We acknowledge that You are sovereign and we bow before Your Holy Throne. Father, we come to request a miracle for Joan, asking for the power of Your restoration and healing to flow through her. Lord, nothing is too difficult for You! We exalt You and glorify Your Name, for You are the answer to every need. Make haste to help Joan, O Lord, that she may again praise You with her life. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
