Prayer request for Daddy of 5

[TruthSetsUFree]

I'd like to ask for prayer for my brother-in-law (Dennis, age 36) who was just this week diagnosed with leukemia. This has come as quite a shock to all of us. He had been feeling tired lately (for 3 weeks or so) and went to the doctor on Tuesday, but none of us suspected this.

He has five children - ages 12, 10, 8, 6 and 15 mos. He's married to my younger sister.

The type of leukemia he has is called acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a very aggressive form but it also responds very well to treatment. Please pray that the cancer will not grow rapidly nor spread to other parts of his body, and that treatment will go well and be successful, if that's the Lord's will for him.

Thanks so much for lifting him, my sister, their children, and the rest of our family up in prayer. My sister feels like she needs to be two people right now in two different places (in the hospital with her husband and at home for her children). Right now we're doing our best to care for her children so she can concentrate on Dennis and his recovery.

Thanks so much for your prayers!

That's very sad but it sounds like they think he has a good chance.

Heavenly Father, we return to thank You for the prayers of Your children ... that we can knit our hearts as one on behalf of Dennis. May Your healing hand rest mightily upon him, Merciful Father, as he begins his treatments for leukemia. Send these medicines on their course of destruction, O God, that not one diseased cell would remain. Strengthen each healthy cell, that Dennis might be strengthen ... nourish each healthy cell, that Dennis might be nourished. Grant unto him the desire of the hearts of his loved ones ... that he be given the fullness of years unto his children's children, and their children. Encourage each one in these coming days, O God, that their faith and trust would be witness to the Love of the Great Physician in the lives of His children. In the Name of Jesus, we pray, Amen ...
