Our Freeper Friend Jeff Head was diagnosed
with a serious (they all are to me) form of cancer
just before Christmas



Please help me approach the prayer throne for our friend Jeff Head who is in Houston currently from his home in Idaho to have surgery & treatment at MD Anderson for his cancer. He will be able to respond on occasion.

You can follow his story & the particulars of the cancer at his blog/HERE

You might know him for many reasons.. His great mind & posts on this forum .. at which he was Freeper of the year in 2001. He is an Activist, Author, Man of God, Devoted Family Man(father of 6; grandfather of 5) and friend to many.

You can find him on line at places other than here.. at Facebook he is Jeff Head

Jeff's blog on his Cancer

Father we pray for our friend Jeff. May he find your perfect peace as he continues to trust you with his life. Give the surgeons and medical personnel wisdom and perfect skill in treating him. Please keep him close to your heart as his body responds to treatments and to surgery. Help us to love him as our brother and give support and strength to wife Gail and their large and loving family. In the name of our Savior and Creator. Amen.

Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!

I just read your blog. My father had a different type of cancer, but, coincidentally, he thought he was having trouble with a sciatic nerve, too, after talking with someone who had that problem. And the doctors believed the problem was a sciatic nerve, too. Just as in your case, an MRI finally revealed that cancer was the real culprit.

He was not so fortunate, but his cancer already had spread throughout his body by the time it was diagnosed. It sounds like yours has been caught much earlier. There is SO much doctors can do for you these days. Keep fighting the fight, and we’ll all be pulling for you. God bless!

JEFF!!! Home for a bit! Hoooooooooooray! Thanks for the update and glad the spread of that insidious disease has only managed to bite a couple of spots in the bone and not spread further.

We love you and are praying for you and those who surround you.

God Bless!

Father God,

We thank You for every day of our existence, no matter what it may bring. This Sabbath is a day to lift up Jeff Head and his wife for Your special care and mercies, O merciful Father!

Jeff’s ardor and passion for his country, the nation we love and fear for, has been so apparent through his posts here; and now his passion and trust in You has also been revealed at his time of challenge, also inspiring so many others reading his words across the nation.

How You pour out Your children for the building of Your kingdom! You are the Great Author of our fates and Lover of our souls! In Your hands we place our trust in your healing power, Your majestic plan that sweeps centuries like grains of sand. In Your hands we place the health and recovery of Jeff Head, believing in the promises of Your Son, that even against the vastness of eternity in Your Mind, every hair on our heads is counted.

You Who know every fiber of our being, every cell in our bodies and every thought of our hearts, Father Above, lift up your servant Jeff and Mrs. Head into Your ineffable solace and comfort as they walk this test of endurance. May the peace that passes understanding be their constant, unwavering companion, as the Holy Spirit outworks every detail of their situation, their travel, their finances, their medical advice and treatment, their support network, their family interactions, and their saving faith.

In Jesus’ Holy Name,

Amen!!

Beautiful tribute to your wife.

Are you planning on flying back down to Texas in a few weeks? I believe there are some of us on here who perhaps could give you some sky miles, to ease your pain. I would be happy to give up my United miles towards the effort, anyone else?

I would like to send you a book in the email, from Pastor John Hagee’s daughter, “Tish”.

Also want to pass on this website for encouragement, to everyone who is interested:

Thanks for the report on your safe return home, good buddy! You've more than earned it. As I said in my last post, not a day goes by without a special prayer to God Almighty on your behalf. So, indeed, expect miracles to happen and avenues to be opened to you on your journey to full recovery, friend.

God bless you and hang in there! And keep us posted!

All the best,
Enrique
