Urgent Prayer Request: FReeper MamaB's husband diagnosed with terminal cancer

None/vanity | 5/5/06

[Wolfstar]

Fellow FReepers, your prayers are urgently needed for MamaB and her husband and family. I received the following email from her this morning:

We got more bad news yesterday at the Kirklin Clinic. There is no treatment available right now unless the dr. down there can find a clinical study at a cancer research center like in San Antonio. He has 6-9 months to live without any treatment. We are all heartbroken and disgusted with the oncologist here who shoul have found this months if not years ago. Could you tell the people on the Dose tonight? Thanks.

I have already notified the "Day in the life..." (Dose) thread custodians, and thought this prayer request might bring the family some measure of comfort.

Thank you in advance for all who take a few moments out of your busy day to post your thoughts and prayers here.

I dont know what it is, but it seems like more people have cancer these days. I meet new people with it EVERY day.

I noticed this a few years ago. I think because cancers in different parts of the body are tracked separately, the scope of what I believe is a cancer epidemic is not widely known.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, MamaB

Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the sick, we turn to you in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in your hands. We place our sick under your care and humbly ask that you restore your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge your will and know that whatever you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.

Thank you for the ping to this special thread,B.G.

We're keeping MamaB, her husband, and their family in our prayers. May God grant them strength, comfort, and guidance for most beneficial treatment, surround them in His love, and bless them with the tender mercies needed for the best outcome in this situation.

Thank you for this special thread for prayers and updates, Wolfstar.

That's Okay and thank you for your efforts, but I don't want to be a bother. She needs your prayers too much to much for me to distract from the purpose of the thread.

May God grant your husband healing, strength and peace, as He works His Will in your lives. In Jesus' Holy Name, Amen.

[Grandma Pam]

We will be praying for God's presence to comfort you and for His healing hands to touch your husband.
