ozaukeemom asks for prayers about a missing teen: "A young man/teen has been missing since last week. My friend's son spoke with him last Friday and there have been some "sightings". But, this boy, Jeff, is still missing. His mother passed away from cancer years ago and his father left. His grandparents are raising him. They are beside themselves. He was with his brother(18) while they were out of town & spent a night with a friend. That was last Thursday. Friday he spoke with my friend's son. Nothing out of the ordinary. Nothing since except the supposed sightings. We are hoping it is a runaway situation and he is scared cuz of all that has happened. The FBI is or will be involved. I am just asking for prayers for Jeff & his grandparents and all of the people trying to find him.

Prayers for J.D.'s son (a person I know from an email list) : He says: My handicapped son is in the hospital with a massive infection that has temporarily, we hope, caused most of his organs to shut down, or nearly so. His condidtion is now stable, and appears to be slowly improving, but he is still extremely critical. The docs seem to think that the next few days will tell if he will recover or not, so your prayers will be greatly appreciated.
Prayers for Mary Elizabeth, who is a Benedictine Oblate, who is having much physical and spiritual pain and problems.
Prime Choice asks: Please add my sister-in-law Renee to your prayer request thread.

murphyb has this request for a small boy: A 3 yr old nephew of a friend was admitted into the hospital b/c he started having trouble walking. They conducted a CT and found out he has a tumor on or near his brain stem. . Update: There is now some hope for this little guy. The doctors are now saying that he should have a 40-60% chance of survival. That sounds bad but they all thought that it would be much less. They say that if the tumor had been 2 centimeters lower on the brain stem, his chances would have been 0-5%. The doctors are now trying to decide how to proceed with chemo or radiation.
Jaded asks us to remember the following in our prayers:
Fr. Mike, recovering from surgery.
Deb- starting chemo.
Beth, Gabby and Claribeth- moving to Chicago so Gabby and Claribeth will be near their Dr. Both kids have Chiari Malformation
Glenda who has stage 4 brain cancer and breast cancer as well as her kids Debbie and Michael. The kids are grown but they are having a really hard time. Also Charles and Tina who are trying to help her and the kids.
From happymom: A quick request of my own: my daughter Christina is in the hospital. For the past couple weeks she has been saying she couldn't eat or drink anything because she felt like she was choking. Finally this weekend she as admitted because she was so dehydrated she couldn't keep anything down even when she tried. It turns out today that her EEG showed she is having seizures and that could explain the choking feeling. That makes sense to me, since I have two other children with epilepsy. I'm not sure I want to bring her home from the hospital yet, though, if she still can't eat and drink, or we'll just be back in by this weekend. On the other hand, I've only gotten to see the rest of my family for about 5 minutes a day, and I'd like to get home. But whatever will be best for her. I've got to get back to the hospital now so I won't be able to reply till tomorrow at least. Thank you so much.
Please remember Noelle, who is having great difficulty finding a job.
Please remember Flyer in your prayers.
Please continue to remember meanie monster's friend Hexe, who has late stage cancer. She has posted a picture of her friend here:

Prayers for Rte66 and her situation with her neighbors.
Knitting a Conundrum asks: Please pray that everything about our move to Boise in the fall goes smoothly...I'm a bit overwhelmed by what needs to be done, and I have a lot of stuff to do and keep getting asthma attacks (related to stress and just the products I need to use to get the jobs done), and we're having some problems with the house we've been renting out and plan to move into. I'd really appreciate it.
Ciexyz has a friend who needs prayer: "Prayers requested for Dave, a friend of mine who is back in the hospital with Lyme Disease. This has been going on for over a year, he's been in and out of the hospital numerous times, has had bad reactions to the drugs they've used to try and treat this problem. Your prayers are much appreciated."
MissEdie has this update on Clint: " I wanted to update all of you on Clint's condition. His mother and I appreciate all of your prayers, however it is not looking good. His mom just got back from the hospital and the doctors are preparing her for the worst. Clint is not responding to the antibiotic being used to treat his staph infection. On Friday there was a glimmer of hope, his fever had broken. He is on the ventilator and it is doing all of his breathing for him. Freepers please pray hard for him, Clint is only 14 years old, and he has been in the hospital battling pneumonia. Please continue to pray for him and his mother! She is very frightened, and so am I."

Update from Sally's Concerns on her sister Alexis the Bengal Kitty: "She's had the pre-cancerous lump removed from her breast and we should have the pathology report later today (Monday, the 12th), she's had another ultrasound for the tumour on her ovary and it hasn't grown since the last one 2 months ago and finally, she had more blood work done and the blood test which tests for the ovarian cancer marker came back as normal. While it's too early to start celebrating it's not ovarian cancer, I'm still extremely grateful to all of the wonderful FReepers for their prayers for both of us.
Army MP Retired updates us on his wife. "Update on my Anita. Friends, yesterday we received bad news in that the cancer is in fact invasive and it was not contained only to the tumor that was removed last week. She must now have a complete mastectomy. That will happen next Thursday, followed by extensive chemotherapy. Pathology will then determine the likelihood the cancer has spread elsewhere and dictate what further testing is necessary. We continue to be grateful for our many blessings and for your prayers."
Mrs. Liberty is asking: "Would you please add my friend "Mike C" to your list? He is suffering from Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. In 1998, he was given three years to live, but has survived thus far. Unfortunately, he cannot have a heart/lung transplant--does not qualify. His health has been up and down over the years. He felt well enough to visit family and friends in Florida a few weeks back, but has told me that he is recently experiencing breathing problems. He is afraid, and I am, for him. He is a dear, dear friend who gives his big heart to everyone.."

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1643026/posts A friend of mine is dealing with a potentially threatening situation and would like to be lifted up in prayer.
Sally'sConcerns posts: "Update: I'll be having surgery on June 28th on 2 different locations on my digestive tract. I'll be in the hospital for a minimum of 7 days. The additional testing I've undergone shows the initial surgery to correct the perforated ulcer was done incorrectly, part of the initial ulcer is still there and there is extensive scar tissue which shouldn't be there. I have precancerous lesions in my esophagus which will not be cured by surgery so I'll have to be monitored every 3 months by having a camera inserted down my esophagus and stomach. They will remove 60% of my stomach which will leave me open to hypoglycemia. Also, I'll have a feeding tube inserted during surgery which will remain until my physician is satisfied my stomach is capable of handling regular food. The feeding tube is required as I'm already somewhat underweight and they feel I need additional nutrition. The feeding tube will remain in my stomach even after I'm released from the hospital.

Please keep FReeper SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST's wife in your prayers. She has started chemo, and BlackbirdSST tells us: "While the diagnosis on my wife is still pretty grim, she/we are fighting tooth and nail. We are lucky in the sense that we moved to an area (Billings, MT), that has one of the most highly rated Cancer Centers in the Nation. We had no idea. These people are GREAT! She is participating in a treatment clinical trial and study group, and she is recieving the most advanced Chemo treatments known (Avastin)and some others, whose name escapes me at the moment. "
