My Grandmother in law has cancer, prayers needed please

Posted on 11/05/2003 12:47:26 PM PST by RiflemanSharpe

My grandmother in law has been diagnosied with lung cancer. The tumor is the size of a golf ball. She is 80 and they do not think that there is any viable course of treatment. The doctors say she my only have a few months. Any prayers for her and our family would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God Bless.

You are all in my prayers. Spend as much time as you can together. Seven years ago my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer (she was 77 at the time)and passed away shortly after that. If your grandmother-in-law only has a few months, make the most of them. Embrace this time you have.

Will pray for your dear grandmother but in the meantime, my sister sent me a little pamphlet that Hospice gave to her when her husband was dying of Cancer. He was terminal and chose not to undergo the chemo.

This book "Gone from My Sight" was a great help to her as her husband withdrew further and further into himself. I passed it along to a friend whose mother-in-law was also dying of cancer and she thanked me and said it was also a great help for her husband to understand his mother's last weeks and days.

I hope you can obtain a copy of this marvelous little but such a giant of a book. God bless your grandmother and all the family. Thoughts and prayers go with you.

I've seen both sides. Both my inlaws died from lung cancer in consecutive years. It was very hard on the survivors. And it was not pretty either I am sorry to say.

On the other side, my son's father-in-law had colon cancer so bad that it had spread to his lungs and liver, a virtual death sentence. He too was given six months to live yet after chemo, his cancer has receded dramatically, so dramatically they are talking about reconnecting his colon.
To look at him now, you can't even tell he was sick. This one truly goes down with miracles........and maybe much better treatment along with a lot of luck. It happens however, you just never know. I'll say a prayer for her.

Lord God, we do pray for this grandmother as she struggles in her later years in what appears will be her final battle. But Your ways are not our ways, so we, instead, place her in Your Divine hands and trust You to make any decisions about her life. We pray, Lord, that she would give herself fully to You, body, mind and spirit, and that her family would be inspired by her faith in the One who conquered death and makes possible eternity with our Lord and our loved ones.

We pray in the name of Jesus; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
