Prayer Request for Austin - age 15 (sad update at #3290)

[PhatHead]

More than two years ago, I asked for your prayers for my son, who was undergoing treatment for a malignant brain tumor. His treatment at the time, though physically brutal, was successful. However, Austin's cancer has returned, and he will be going back into radiation and chemo soon - he had surgery last week.

This is so hard - he pretty much missed Middle School with this, and now here goes High School. Pray for him to enjoy college...

We will very much appreciate all of your prayers. Thanks you.

Pax Christi.

Oh, Your Majesty, our Hearts are Filled with Thy Praise! Thou hast Been So Good, So Merciful to Thy Dear Lamb! Continue Thy Work, O Great King of Saints; Overflow Austin with Healing, with Restoring Grace. Our Glorious Christ, our God 'Who is Gracious; it is He Who Makes Things Right, our Most Compassionate God,' (Ps.116:5) we Love and Adore You. Impart to Austin Such Blessing, that he will be Unable to Take it All in! You are our King, O Living God, and to You we Look for Great, for Mighty Gifts.

Be with Austin Every Moment, Granting him Your Sweet, Heavenly Peace. Heal, Restore, and Refresh Your Child, Lord Jesus, as we Pray in Thy Holy Name, amen.

It is truly overwhelming, and we are very grateful. I only wish there were more updates to post, but the truth is, most days, most weeks, it is just drudgery and perseverance.

Hooray Austin! Drudge on and persevere. It's a beautiful thaaang!

God hears our prayers. I can testify to that. My 70 year old mother has been battling cancer since summer of '05. It was quite a sudden scare. Surgery in just a few days after diagnosis. It may encourage you that the chemo was rough but she made it through and is doing very well. We prayed so hard.

I will pray for you and your son, asking God if will make a difference and that the Great Physician will grant healing and send his Holy Spirit to bring peace to you all.

I don't want to write a book, but we got into herbal stuff somewhat and I feel like it helped her. She pushed herself physically a little bit (when possible) during chemo, and I think that helped her get back on her feet faster. A relative who is an RN with a Masters degree tried to tell me she would 'never' regain her strength.... but she did because God blessed and because she persisted.

I just pray all goes well for you all. Keep fighting. You might tell your son as I told my mom, "All those people like Lance Armstrong who beat cancer had one thing in common." She said "What" I replied "They wanted to." Keep fighting the good fight.

May God Bless
