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!
One more prayer is now added to the huge bouquet of prayers you have received. God Bless you.
Prayers for you and your family.

P.S. I too have Stage IV lung cancer. It is Stage IV because it's the second time, not because it has spread. So far it's still confined to the lung. But I was given less than a year to live in 1998, and I'm still here thanks to God, good doctors and a special diet. FReepmail me if you would like details. God bless.

Dear Kayak,
Praying for you right now, that the Lord will guide the hands of your doctor and the entire medical team, that the Lord will keep you in the Palm of His Hand and in His Peace. Prayers for Mr. Kayak, that the Peace and Strength of the Lord will surround him.
Prayers for a complete healing, in Jesus Name, Amen
The Lord Bless You all,
RM
Prayers Continue for you and your surgeon, Dear FRiend.
I tried to call you last night but I kept getting the busy signal. Then we had unexpected company and when they left at 10:30 I felt like it was too late to call you.
I will try again this morning,
I am so very sorry that you are going through this. Of course, my prayers are with you. I love you so much and I appreciate the love and care that you have extended to me. You know Our Lord and I'm sure that your church is ministering to you. I am praying the Lord will bring back to your mind what you already know and will be almost visible to as you battle this monstrous result of The Fall.
God bless you, Kay.
Prayers up!
You and your family will be in my prayers.
Prayers sent kayak. Praying for God's healing hands and comfort for you and your family. A blessed Christmas to you and yours.
Prayers going out!
Lighting a candle now, and praying that God will guide your surgeon's hand and mind. And settling in to await the good word that healing is the new trend. :-)
Prayers offered.
Your courage is astounding. If I ever have to face such a challenge, I hope I will be as able as you to handle it.
Bless you for this example of courage and grace.
You are certainly in my prayers.
May the peace of our Lord be ever present with you and our family at this time.
Prayers for a speedy recovery and strength to face the days ahead.
Dear Lord, hold our family close and shelter us in this time of trial. Give kayak all our love and strength, that she may continue to live in your light. Let kayak be with us all as we rejoice the birth of Jesus.
In your heavenly name we pray. Amen.
