A Prayer Thread for LBGA

dansangel

[dansangel]

A wonderfully devoted FReeper, LBGA, is in need of FReeper prayers. I spoke with her sister last evening and with LBGA, herself, this morning, and things are not looking good.

When first diagnosed with cancer last year, LBGA wished to keep her condition a secret. She fought her affliction with admirable strength and candor. She really felt she had it beaten this past March when .45MAN and I had the pleasure of attending two pro-America/Support the Troops rallies with her - one in Milledgeville, GA and the other in Atlanta. She fell ill again shortly after the Atlanta rally and began her uphill battle against this malicious enemy once again.

LBGA has since been told she is "terminal." She has accepted this pronouncement with the grace and dignity that only LBGA could exhibit. Those of you that know her will understand what I am trying to describe. LBGA is a remarkably strong, talented and witty person who is a role model that I lovingly look up to.

LBGA gave me permission to go public with her illness and ask for FReeper prayers to lift her up to God. We know the power of FReeper prayer. It has worked miracles in the past and we now pray for another miracle for our FReeper FRiend, LBGA.

Please keep her son Tyler and daughter Teale in your prayers.

Dear Merciful Father,
We come to You today to ask a favor on behalf of our friend LBGA. We ask You to please allow her complete healing of her cancer so that we, her friends and her family, may have her with us longer. We ask, too, that her son and daughter find strength and comfort in Your loving arms as they carry their trmendous burden. If it be Your Will, Dear Lord, we ask this of You as Your humble and loving servants.

This request comes in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Shalom & Blessings!

Prayers continue for our dear Friend and Sister Lynne and her Family.

Oh, how our Messiah, Lord and King Loves Lynne!

She is Precious in His Sight and His Banner Over her is LOVE!

We ask You our Heavenly Father to hold your daughter Lynne close to your Breast in your Loving arms.

Take away all pain, lead her beside Your still water, restore her soul and bring her Victory into Your Glorious Light.

For it is in The NAME that is Above ALL Names we Pray and Give to You All Glory, Honor and Praise.

Amen ~ and ~ Amen.

It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that after her long fight with cancer, LBGA/Lynne's suffering ended late on Tuesday, October 21, 2003.

I know you all know she will be badly missed here at Free Republic, but it was her time to go home. She rests in the peace of the Lord now.

Her family requests donations be made to Lynne's attending physician who was absolutely wonderful and is starting a women's cancer foundation.

The information is:

Women's Cancer Alliance Foundation
Lynne Bradford Fund
c/o Dr. Allen Lawhead, Jr.
1459 Montreal Road, Suite 408

It pains me to post this because I know you all feel just like I do right this minute but at least we can be here together to share our grief.

Thank you for letting me know. May God grant strength and comfort to Lynne's family and friends.

[pubmom]

Thank you for posting the info Howlin. I don't know what to type right now, this is so sad.

The fact that she is now resting in the Lord does bring a great degree of comfort. I pray that her family is surrounded with God's presence during this difficult time.

Thank You Howlin. Prayers to follow.....

May good memories sustain her family. May she rest in peace.

[Sandylapper]

Thank you, Howlin. I'm so sad to learn this for all of those she left behind. It conjures up personal memories for me as well. I lost my only wonderful sister to this sneaky type of cancer many years ago.

The waving flag came from a Quicktime movie I made of the
flag with my digital camera on the day my son graduated from
Airborne School at Ft. Benning, GA. It was a great day for
the flag and for me.

Thank you, Howlin.

May God welcome Lynne into his lap...and cradle her from all hurt. May her family feel God's love...and know that their loss is Heaven's gain. May God give solace and comfort to Lynn's family.

I am truly saddened by this news.
LBGA was one of my 1st contacts on FR.
I know she is in a better place.
May God Welcome her Home and comfort her family and friends.

To All of you helped her in her final months, Thank You

[CheneyChick]

Thank you Howlin. She fought the good fight and now is in the arms of the Lord. I'm thankful to have known her in the small way that I did and for the value she brought to this forum.

She needs to be added to the FR Memorial wall, if she hasn't been already.

God bless and comfort her family.
