If I may, I’d like to request prayer for our family.
My sister-in-law, C, will be having a double mastectomy week after next. Prognosis is excellent. I may have mentioned this earlier. The tumor is small, but this is a re-occurrence of the cancer she dealt with 17 years ago, and she wants to be completely done, so she is opting for this route.
My dad, who cares for his wife suffering from Alzheimer’s, had cancer surgery on his face a few weeks back. He had had salivary gland cancer about 4 years ago, with proton radiation. This new area they thing may be a result of the proton therapy, as it is a type of blood vessel cancer, very rare, angio? sarcoma. They feel that they got all of it but the margin on one side was close, and want him to have another second surgery to get a bigger margin. Scan shows no other involvement anywhere else.
In the meantime, one of my dad’s wife’s caregivers has tested positive for Covid. Her fever began Monday evening. Her name is Roberta. Sweet lady, please pray for her to be okay. Now my step-mom has a fever. Two of the other ladies won’t come back to help for two weeks because they are concerned about the exposure my dad and his wife have had to the covid. He has one helper left when he normaly has four. His wife is wheelchair bound and non communicative. He has one new helper coming in the a.m. who has had the virus. Please pray my dad doesn’t catch it. He is 89 will be 90 in January.
But wait - there’s more!! Our youngest daughter, Hannah, who is 28, and expecting her second child, in January, has been asked by her husband for a divorce. We have hired a good attorney for her, but they will have to sell their house and she will move in with us for a bit. With the 3 y.o. and new baby.
Sorry to unload all of this on you guys. But would appreciate it if when you read this, you would say a prayer for Roberta, (the caregiver with covid) my step mom, my dad, and my daughter Hannah. And me and my husband.
Wow, your family is really going through the wringer right now. I’m so sorry to hear of your difficulties. My daughter left her husband last weekend in the most unkind way, and the poor man was devastated. Divorce is hard on everyone unfortunately, and I definitely feel your pain. I will pray for your family and the strength to deal with everything you’re going through.
