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!
Praying really hard over here.
Prayers going out for you and your family; praying that the surgery goes well and your family is together for Christmas.
Kayak ... do you see how you have made roads to miralcles in more people than you will ever know?! Indeed so ... you kept me walking when I thought I wanted to stop ... now it is time for you to keep walking ...

Don't worry about getting back to us soon. Kay is your priority as well as ours. I'll keep this special FReeper in my prayers. Bless you both!
Kay, my prayers are now doubled for you, as I'm sure they wlll be by many people.
I spoke with Kay.. she sounded positive & upbeat. Glad that things are at least "happening"..not just waiting. She covets our prayers & of course she has them!
Prayers for you and yours...
Kay, may you be blessed with God's healing angels tending your every need, giving you strength, comfort and peace for all that is ahead of you.
May God guide your surgeon's hands and your other doctors as well as they work to not only give you a good outcome, but to bring you into complete remission.
You are in my thoughts and prayers, as are Mr. Kayak, your children and grandbabies.
