UPDATE: We received this from her son early this morning.

I just wanted to let you, and all the wonderful people on this forum that my mother considered her friends, Kattracks, passed away yesterday afternoon. She died peacfully, with her family at her bedside. If you knew my mother, you knew how concerned she was with the welfare of others. At one point in the afternoon, we were all gathered at her bed, reminiscing about her,the good times, and all the good things she had done for others. It was as if she had waited for this moment, when she knew that her loved ones were going to be alright, that she was able to let go, and pass into the care of God. To all that knew her, be rest assured that she is waching over you from Heaven. That is just the way my mother was. She always put the welfare of others ahead of her own.

Everytime my brother, father, or I would leave the house, my mother’s last words to us was “Be Careful”. I asked her one day why she always said this to us. She explained to me that in that one phrase was wrapped up all the prayers, concerns, and love that she had for us, but to explain it all to us as we walked out the door would take too long, so she would just say “Be careful”. I’m glad I asked her what she meant, because from that day on, and everytime she said it since then, I understood who, and what, my mother was.

Thank you all for your prayers and support for her.

Frankie

Original thread:

Kattracks has asked me to begin a prayer thread for her, the hardest thing I have ever been asked to do.

She has had a very frightening finding on a medical exam that is not confirmed and may be a false alarm, but which requires all of us to uplift her to Almighty God asking for His mercy to spare her life or to give her and us the strength and faith to walk the path He has chosen for her.

More information than that I am not at liberty to disclose.

Please ping everyone you know who can pray for kattracks, who was long a moderator on FR and now is the Fairy Godmother of the Merry Band of Patriots.

Dear FRiends,
Just a short update. I saw a specialist on Wednesday and she has suggested I have another test, which will probably be scheduled for next week sometime. I will let you all know the results when we get them.
I want to thank you all once again for your continued prayers and words of encouragement.
Your FRiend,
kat

Based on everything I've read thus far, the news is very encouraging. There are a class of neuroendocrine tumors that are simply hormone-secreting non-cancerous lesions that can be tolerated without complication.

What's also promising is that there are no hallmarks for malignancy. As my doctors told me when I was diagnosed, if the indicators say "no" or "maybe," then the likelihood of the tumor being malignant is negligible to nonexistent.

Hang in there, kiddo! If a grumpy ol' fart like me can kick this, I know you'll do great.

Have been Thinking about you and Keeping you in my Regular Prayers.

Because the Lord God Helps me, I will not be Dismayed; therefore, I have Set my Face Like Flint to Do His Will. (Is.50:7)

Make Everyone Rejoice who Puts his Trust in You. Keep them Shouting for Joy, because You are Defending them. Fill All who Love You with Your Happiness. For You Bless the Godly man, O Lord; You Protect him with Your Shield of Love. (Ps.5:11,12)
