[__ Prayer __] mama's getting a biopsy

[Christ_empowered]

ugh. life just...keeps happening, doesn't it?

OK. So, my (beloved, long suffering, kind, loving, generous) mama is getting a biopsy. I'm...not in the best mood about it, neither is she. My dad's surprisingly calm. It just seems so unfair. She worked forever in a high pressure job, managed to retire not very long ago, and now...biopsy! Such is life, I suppose.

But please do pray for her, and my dad, too. Nobody wants to deal with cancer, even if it is a more treatable form. I know the best thing is to pray for God's perfect will, but...I don't know...I like to at least share -my- preferences, you know?

Thanks.

Praying for your mother, dad, and you. From what I understand , and that because of your age and her retiring, she must be in her sixties . She still is very young and I believe you're going to amazed at her strength as she suffers through this. Our prayers are going to bring her through these times as God heals her. Become a special comfort to her in Jesus' name.

hey Eugene.

Thanks, as always. I looked up the stats on breast cancer, and...its looks promising. I mean, that's lots of people, grouped together, but...yeah. 5 year survivial rates now are double what they were in the 70s. There are better, safer treatments now, plus a growing interest in complementary medicine.

The big thing is that I want my mama to live a good, long time in retirement, and that looks -very- possible, Praise God.

Thanks again.

me, again.

mama seems to be in good spirits. she cooked up a storm today! I hope and pray it isn't cancer. I read this book way back when and adopted an approach to crises from it: hope for the best, prepare for the worst, and be ready for anything in between. OK. So, I"ve looked up treatment stats, survival stats, etc. I've even looked into "alternative" and "complementary" therapies. things look good!

mama's not big on hippy stuff, but now there's some solid data on using massive injections and infusions of vitamin c alongside conventional cancer treatment. often improves results, improves quality of life, reduces need for heavy pain killers. --if-- it comes back as cancer, there's all kindsa hope.

i wouldn't wish cancer on anyone, -but- im glad its 2018, they have good insurance, and...yeah. its not all doom and gloom, basically.

please keep praying for her. i mean that. its...not right. i get it; "life isn't fair sometimes," but...ugh. mama's really the one who got me a lawyer ((long story)), so...even tho i was a brat from the pits of hell, she shelled out $$$, I got saved, 5 years later....I've been transformed, inside and out.

there's hope, especially for breast cancer. from the looks of things, God might even find a way to make this some kind of growing/maturation thing for us. At the end of the day...and I hate to admit that I feel down saying this, it seems to final, somehow....I pray for God's perfect will in my mama's life.

let's keep these prayers coming!

no word yet on the upcoming appointment. mama's taking it in stride, i must say. she's keeping busy...lately, she's been cooking up a storm, doing the domestic goddess routine. I'm thankful that she's been able to retire, by God's grace. that job of her's...whoa. all consuming, straight up madness towards the end.

God is good! Time to get my eyes fixed on Christ, and Him crucified. Thanks for the prayers (and please keep them coming, of course).
