Prayer Request for a Dear Freeper [prayers needed for kayak - update in #1,145 ]
FRmail | 12-14-06 | Brad's Gramma

Posted on 12/14/2006 7:50:21 PM PST by Brad’s Gramma

I received a FRmail tonight from Freeper kayak regarding a health issue that her doctors have discovered. Some of you, apparently, are already aware of this. I DO have her permission to put this thread up. She will not be on here to respond as she's still working and will be starting treatments.

Anyway, from kayak....Several weeks ago as part of my routine annual physical I had a chest x-ray. When it came back showing some suspicious shadows, the doc ordered a CT scan which also showed the shadows. So last week I had a bronchoscopy and got the results on Monday.

I have lung cancer. The good news is that of the 2 kinds I have the least aggressive kind and it can usually be removed surgically. The bad news is that because of the location of the cancer it can't be gotten to surgically without doing damage to parts I need.

So I'm facing a regimen of chemo and radiation probably. Monday I have an appointment with an oncologist to begin planning how we're going to attack this thing.

Please PLEASE pray for kayak!!!

Dear Lord God, our hearts are heavy tonight with this news from kayak. She is a dear lady who loves you with all of her heart. Thank you for giving her so VERY many prayer warriors, thank you for giving her a WONDERFUL husband who has been nothing but 100% supportive of her.

Lord, I pray for a "Logan Miracle". Lord, please heal her body. Please guide the medical personnel who will be helping her through this. Please give her YOUR peace. Peace that passes all understanding.

In Your Name,
Amen!

Poppy, your Mom and your family will be remembered in my every prayer. I prayed for her this Easter morning in church.

May the strength of the Lord Jesus sustain all of you.

I wish there was a way that we could lift the pain from you. Each of us would willingly bare the burden and it would be much lighter to bare because there are so many of us who love you.

I do know this, God will surround you when you think it is too much and HE will lift it from you.

Be at peace dear kayak, you've done a magnificent job with the life God gave you.

Dearest kayak ... you are such a comfort to others, with your devotion to Our Dear Lord and your prayers for our brave troops. Now, we pray for you and your family, with full knowledge that you are truly a loving child of God.

That you have comfort in your decision is a blessing, and now you know your way is clear.

I'm so glad for your wonderful family and their abiding love and presence right now. They are your proudest joy and proof of your skilled handiwork and loving hand.

I pray God's mercy, releasing you from pain, and filling your days with happiness and that peace that passes all understanding.

God be with you, to comfort and guide you.

Do not be afraid of tomorrow; for God is already there. ~Author Unknown

Thank you for this post. Yours is a sad, yet sweet and loving task to perform. May the Dear Lord wrap his arms around your whole family, and hold you all as tightly as you hold each other. That may not seem like much, but it will be more than enough.

This Easter, we are celebrating that Christ is ALIVE. Your dear Mother may go on before some of us do, but there is no doubt she will be in heaven with HIM.

I know she will be getting the best of all pain management because of her caring family.

God Bless all of you on this Easter Day, but I can't stop the tears after reading your post. The LOVE we leave behind is all that really matters in our Journey. There is treasure trove of LOVE for kayak, and your wonderful family on FR..

Spectre and wife..

What a glorious testimony, ohiowfan ... + To God be the Glory ... GREAT things He has done, and continues to do!


HE LIVES
Words and music: Alfred H. Ackley, 20th cent.

1. I serve a risen Savior, He’s in the world today;
I know that He is living, whatever men may say.
I see his hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer
and, just the time I need Him, He’s always near.

Refrain
He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today!
He walks with me and talks with me along life’s narrow way.
He lives, He lives salvation to impart!
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart.

2. In all the world around me I see His loving care,
And tho’ my heart grows weary, I never will despair.
I know that He is leading thro’ all the stormy blase;
The day of His appearing will come at last.

Refrain

3. Rejoice, rejoice, O Christians, lift up your voice and sing
eternal halelujahs to Jesus Christ the King!
The Hope of all who seek Him, the Help of all who find,
None other is so loving, so good and kind.

Refrain
He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today!
He walks with me and talks with me along life’s narrow way.
He lives, He lives salvation to impart!
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart.
