Our Freeper Friend Jeff Head was diagnosed
with a serious (they all are to me) form of cancer
just before Christmas

Please help me approach the prayer throne for our friend Jeff Head who is in Houston currently from his home in Idaho to have surgery & treatment at MD Anderson for his cancer. He will be able to respond on occasion.

You can follow his story & the particulars of the cancer at his blog/HERE

You might know him for many reasons.. His great mind & posts on this forum .. at which he was Freeper of the year in 2001. He is an Activist, Author, Man of God, Devoted Family Man(father of 6; grandfather of 5) and friend to many.

You can find him on line at places other than here.. at Facebook he is Jeff Head

Father we pray for our friend Jeff. May he find your perfect peace as he continues to trust you with his life. Give the surgeons and medical personnel wisdom and perfect skill in treating him. Please keep him close to your heart as his body responds to treatments and to surgery. Help us to love him as our brother and give support and strength to wife Gail and their large and loving family. In the name of our Savior and Creator. Amen.

Praying for you, Jeff.

Jeff, you are my hero. I have been keeping up with your updates, but the situation makes anything I might say seem so insignificant and small, so I seldom post.

Suffice it to say, Laz (?!) has put it best, we love you, and are all rooting for you. I am sure there are many more Freepers who just don't know what to say, and I am just as sure that they have you in their prayers.

Get well friend.

Many prayers for you and yours, Jeff Head!!!

Laz, you are going to make me cry.

Jeff, praying hard.

[NormsRevenge]

God Bless, Jeff.

Prayers of healing and strength and comfort for what lies ahead to you and family.

[AFreeBird]

Prayers to you and your family Jeff.

Good luck with the CIR approach.

[Albion Wilde]

All is well with those who love the Lord; you are well.

In Jesus’ Name, I claim your Divine Healing.

Amen!

[SuperSonic]

Jeff, I am praying for you and your family.

[Irish Eyes]

My prayers are with you daily. Thank you for the update

[prairiebreeze]

And now, that door, which I had thought was closed, is open again for us to consider.

Continuing to lift you up in prayer Jeff. My home bible group is now lifting you up as well.

God bless you and your family.

[McGavin999]

Thank you God.

[Jeff Head]

Thanks Laz...I love you too bro, and all of my dear friends...patriots all...here on FR. The prayers and faith being exerted on my behlaf humble me.

See my latest update at 1081. The Lord is answering prayers and opening doors.

His will be done...His name, and that of His Son, our Savior, be glorified by whatever transpires. It is to Him and His Son I attribute all that I am and every blessing I enjoy in life. Sarting with my acceptance and testimony of Jesus Chroist as my personal Savior, and then most particularly for the great, unbelievable blessing of my wife, that of my five kids, my grandkids, and my parents, family and friends.

A true witness of Jesus Christ and Him crucified is, IMHO, a true witness of liberty, because His Gospel of love and free will choice, unlocks the chains of bondage to hell, damnation, and any other form of tyranny. THAT, is the pricniple reason America has worked all of these years, and will, in the end, be the telling differentiator as to whether our liberty will be maintained for the future.

Thank you for keeping us updated, Jeff. We are thinking of you every day and holding you and your family in our hearts.

[amom]

That, Laz, is why I love you.

My dear Jeff, thank you for sharing with us both your physical challenges and your spiritual experiences along the way. You know I pray for you and I know miracles do happen...daily and in their own way.

I am the mother of a recipient of numerous miracles and now know I could never have predicted the path or the outcome. I do know the paths were unusual and challenging with many benefits if traveled with a sincere heart. I know your heart. You have faith and I have faith in you.

I continue to pray for you and Gail and the path that is ahead. We will see His will done.

And to repeat Laz’s simple statement. I love you Jeff.

[FOXFANVOX]

Jeff, it is good to see you again have the prospect of hope. Often, because some “cures” are rare, people lose hope, and that is sad. Hope itself has curative powers and should be nourished.

The laying on of hands also has great curative [and calming] powers and I am glad you were able to experience that.

Your decision is difficult and you will have to rely on prayer to guide you.

All of your friends at Free Republic will be praying with you, and for you.

Hi Jeff. You must feel like you're caught in a whipsaw right about now. Doesn't seem there are any "right" answers doest it? JMHO and FWIW, IF the tumor has already spread, I gather there's really nothing that can be done at this point; even radical surgery would not be a permanent solution. If it hasn't spread and you receive radiation, what are the odds it could grow in that enviornment? Seems less likely but I know nothing about these things.

In any case, the radiation seems the more viable of the two most probable approaches. Nothing wrong with buying some time and you just never know when or how God may move. May He abide in you and yours and may He share his awesome blessings.

[Grammy]

Still praying and believing for you Jeff. Jesus is able.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

OH Pegita - that is the Word of the Lord to Jeff and to all who are in need of God’s miraculous healing!

Let’s agree in prayer over that scripture specifically for Jeff - ok?

[Pegita]

Agreeing with you, dear Freedom, in the Promise of God’s Word for our beloved FRiend, Jeff ~

Psalm 107:20

“He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.”

Amen and Amen, dear Lord ... Amen and Amen
