Prayer Request For My Wife

My wife is very ill and in need of prayer. She was diagnosed with blood clots in her legs several weeks ago and was put on Cumadin and sent home. The Cumadin didn't work, she developed additional clots and several migrated to her lungs. She was sent to the ER and then admitted to the hospital and a CT scan was ordered. The scan showed several clots in her lungs and it also showed a mass on her liver. The oncologist first diagnosed liver cancer and since the mass was relatively small we were hopeful that surgery and a round of chemo would take care of it. Yesterday the oncologist informed my wife that her situation was 'much worse than I originally thought' and told her that the tumor on her liver was a met, not a primary tumor. However, they haven't yet found out what her primary cancer is...they told her she metatastic disease but can't tell her what cancer.
We're both in a fog and feeling lost. I feel like I've been through hell these last three days, I can't imagine what my dear wife must think! She's putting on a brave face and trying to stay positive but this week has been brutal.
Please pray for her. Pray for healing and for her comfort. She is my wife of thirty years, my best friend and soul mate. I will be absolutely lost without her...

Thank you for your continued prayers. Janet's home from the hospital and has completed her first round of chemo. So far she hasn't suffered any serious nausea, just a little queasiness. Her major complaint is weakness and fatigue. Her treatment was on Thursday and by Saturday she could barely keep her eyes open. She slept more than 20 hours Saturday, but seems almost normal today.
I think we've both started to come to grips with what she's facing and have put our trust in the Lord. It's in His hands anyway and we're accepting of His will. That doesn't mean we're giving up. I want very much for her to beat this and be with me for the next 30 years! She has made the last 30 years the happiest of my life.

Thanks for letting us know. Answers to prayer can be Yes, No and wait. And really Waiting upon the Lord is a special place. One further prayer lifted up.

Continued prayers for ongoing strength, understanding, perseverance, peace, comfort and total healing. May your plea to our Lord for another 30 years of wedded bliss be graced unto you both.
The Healing That We Need
Why, O Lord, does it always seem
That we often get no reply?
When we are so very desperate
For all the answers why
When we need a special touch
To heal all of our sickness,
A miracle that only you can do,
Restoring strength to our weakness
We do not know the reasons 'why'
You don't answer straight away,
We only need to have faith in you
And be persistent when we pray
You may choose to heal much more
Than our needs of the physical
So much more is the spirit inside
That may be in need of a miracle
For you care so much for us
And want to see us healed,
Not only in this body of ours
But in our souls as well
For healing is for every part,
Our body, spirit and soul
And God just wants to touch each part
And make us truly whole
We needn't feel so downcast
As we wait upon the Lord,
For the answer will come in His time
Then we shall be restored.
