Prayers for Rte66 and her situation with her neighbors.
Knitting a Conundrum says: "Ack! My brain is fried - my follow up appointment to the dr. wasn't until the 26th. But please do keep me in your prayers. Lots of problems with my asthma...I haven't quite learned how to manage it, and I am having more problems with it. I suspect the chronic sinus, tummy problems and asthma are all interacting. I am most asking that the Lord lead me in ways that I learn how to handle this so I can still get through and do the things he is leading me to do."
CaPagrl has this request: "I just found out a few minutes ago that there is a bed available for me in the Labor & Delivery unit and I will (God-willing) be delivering my new son today. However, this pregnancy has been filled with complications and I've had to switch doctors late in the game (literally yesterday) in addition to switching hospitals - instead of our local hospital, we'll be traveling an hour away to a major medical center.
My son is measuring rather large and my local OB refused to let me attempt a natural childbirth because of that fear. Two weeks ago, an ultrasound showed Logan (the baby) measuring 9 lbs., 1 oz. - and I was only 36.4 weeks along! Last Monday, the same technician meausured Logan at 10 lbs. 5 oz. (gulp!). ... Anyway, we went to the medical center yesterday and met with a new OB who ordered an ultrasound - this time, Logan measured at 9 lbs., 10 oz. meaning they would let me try a natural birth!! So, I am thrilled and also terrified - my original OB has told me so many horror stories in his attempt to justify a c-section as the only option that I've been having nightmares all week.

Update from Hi Heels on ZacsMom:
I got a call from ZacsMom's husband Tom this evening. ZM is going into surgery tomorrow to remove stage 3 cancerous growths from her lungs and lymph nodes. Her previous surgery removed a 6cm growth and a portion of one of her lungs. If she is stable after the surgery, they will proceed with chemo and radiation. The growths that tested negative for cancer previously were next to the growths that now test positive at stage 3. She has a great deal of trouble breathing and tires very easily. Tom is also kept busy with his elderly father who took a fall last week and was hospitalized for breaking a bone under his eye. So, Tom is caring for him as well. Please keep this family and ZM especially in your prayers over the next several days. If ZM gave you her mailing address, please be sure to send her a card. If not, FReepmail me and I will have Tom contact you. Thank you for all your prayers for this wonderful lady.

Knitting a Conundrum asks: Please pray that everything about our move to Boise in the fall goes smoothly...I'm a bit overwhelmed by what needs to be done, and I have a lot of stuff to do and keep getting asthma attacks (related to stress and just the products I need to use to get the jobs done), and we're having some problems with the house we've been renting out and plan to move into. Hubby is out of town and probably will be out of town a good bit this summer on wildland fire assignments. I'd really appreciate it.
Ciexyz has a friend who needs prayer: "Prayers requested for Dave, a friend of mine who is back in the hospital with Lyme Disease. This has been going on for over a year, he's been in and out of the hospital numerous times, has had bad reactions to the drugs they've used to try and treat this problem. Your prayers are much appreciated."
Tertiary01 requests: "My step daughter who spent her military duty down in Panama, recently had her half brother murdered by jerks trying to steal his car. She is still inconsolable and could stand your prayers."
MissEdie has this update on Clint: " I wanted to update all of you on Clint's condition. His mother and I appreciate all of your prayers, however it is not looking good. His mom just got back from the hospital and the doctors are preparing her for the worst. Clint is not responding to the antibiotic being used to treat his staph infection. On Friday there was a glimmer of hope, his fever had broken. He is on the ventilator and it is doing all of his breathing for him. Freepers please pray hard for him, Clint is only 14 years old, and he has been in the hospital battling pneumonia. Please continue to pray for him and his mother! She is very frightened, and so am I."

Update from Sally's Concerns on her sister Alexis the Bengal Kitty: "She's had the pre-cancerous lump removed from her breast and we should have the pathology report later today (Monday, the 12th), she's had another ultrasound for the tumour on her ovary and it hasn't grown since the last one 2 months ago and finally, she had more blood work done and the blood test which tests for the ovarian cancer marker came back as normal. While it's too early to start celebrating it's not ovarian cancer, I'm still extremely grateful to all of the wonderful FReepers for their prayers for both of us.
Army MP Retired updates us on his wife.
" Update on my Anita. Friends, yesterday we received bad news in that the cancer is in fact invasive and it was not contained only to the tumor that was removed last week. She must now have a complete mastectomy. That will happen next Thursday, followed by extensive chemotherapy. Pathology will then determine the likelihood the cancer has spread elsewhere and dictate what further testing is necessary. We continue to be grateful for our many blessings and for your prayers."

Mrs. Liberty is asking: "Would you please add my friend "Mike C" to your list? He is suffering from Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. In 1998, he was given three years to live, but has survived thus far. Unfortunately, he cannot have a heart/lung transplant--does not qualify. His health has been up and down over the years. He felt well enough to visit family and friends in Florida a few weeks back, but has told me that he is recently experiencing breathing problems. He is afraid, and I am, for him. He is a dear, dear friend who gives his big heart to everyone.."

Sally'sConcerns posts: "Update: I'll be having surgery on June 28th on 2 different locations on my digestive tract. I'll be in the hospital for a minimum of 7 days. The additional testing I've undergone shows the initial surgery to correct the perforated ulcer was done incorrectly, part of the initial ulcer is still there and there is extensive scar tissue which shouldn't be there. I have precancerous lesions in my esophagus which will not be cured by surgery so I'll have to be monitored every 3 months by having a camera inserted down my esophagus and stomach. They will remove 60% of my stomach which will leave me open to hypoglycemia. Also, I'll have a feeding tube inserted during surgery which will remain until my physician is satisfied my stomach is capable of handling regular food. The feeding tube is required as I'm already somewhat underweight and they feel I need additional nutrition. The feeding tube will remain in my stomach even after I'm released from the hospital.

Please keep FReeper SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST's wife in your prayers. She has started chemo, and BlackbirdSST tells us: "While the diagnosis on my wife is still pretty grim, she/we are fighting tooth and nail. We are lucky in the sense that we moved to an area (Billings, MT), that has one of the most highly rated Cancer Centers in the Nation. We had no idea. These people are GREAT! She is participating in a treatment clinical trial and study group, and she is recieving the most advanced Chemo treatments known (Avastin)and some others, whose name escapes me at the moment. "

That is good!
I join in prayer for Noelle!
Joining in prayer for all of these requests. A quick request of my own: my daughter Christina is in the hospital. For the past couple weeks she has been saying she couldn't eat or drink anything because she felt like she was choking. Finally this weekend she as admitted because she was so dehydrated she couldn't keep anything down even when she tried. It turns out today that her EEG showed she is having seizures and that could explain the choking feeling. That makes sense to me, since I have two other children with epilepsy. I'm not sure I want to bring her home from the hospital yet, though, if she still can't eat and drink, or we'll just be back in by this weekend. On the other hand, I've only gotten to see the rest of my family for about 5 minutes a day, and I'd like to get home. But whatever will be best for her. I've got to get back to the hospital now so I won't be able to reply till tomorrow at least. Thank you so much.
My friend Rick passed away over the weekend and was buried today. Thank you for all the prayers.
Prayers for all who knew him and care.
Prayers for the requests listed, and for Noelle that she may find a job.
Prayers for your daughter.
Prayers up for Christina and your other children! (and for strength for Mom!)
Prayers up for your family, and for you, Happymom.
Thanks thanks.
Thank you Knitting A Conundrum.Prayers for all.
Thank you for your prayers. We got home last night, but she still sn't eating or drinking. The neurologist put her on Trileptil for the seizures, but said it may take a few days to kick in. We see the pediatrician again tomorrow so I hope he will have some ideas.
