I received a FRmail tonight from Freeper kayak regarding a health issue that her doctors have discovered. Some of you, apparently, are already aware of this. I DO have her permission to put this thread up. She will not be on here to respond as she's still working and will be starting treatments.
Anyway, from kayak....Several weeks ago as part of my routine annual physical I had a chest x-ray. When it came back showing some suspicious shadows, the doc ordered a CT scan which also showed the shadows. So last week I had a bronchoscopy and got the results on Monday.
I have lung cancer. The good news is that of the 2 kinds I have the least aggressive kind and it can usually be removed surgically. The bad news is that because of the location of the cancer it can't be gotten to surgically without doing damage to parts I need.
So I'm facing a regimen of chemo and radiation probably. Monday I have an appointment with an oncologist to begin planning how we're going to attack this thing.
Please PLEASE pray for kayak!!!
Dear Lord God, our hearts are heavy tonight with this news from kayak. She is a dear lady who loves you with all of her heart. Thank you for giving her so VERY many prayer warriors, thank you for giving her a WONDERFUL husband who has been nothing but 100% supportive of her.
Lord, I pray for a "Logan Miracle". Lord, please heal her body. Please guide the medical personnel who will be helping her through this. Please give her YOUR peace. Peace that passes all understanding.
In Your Name,
Amen!
Praying.

Thinking of you and sending a (((HUG)))
Stiff upper lip. You are so brave. I believe in the glass half full rather than half empty philosophy. Therefore I have full faith you will slowly but surely get better. Keep up the fight!
Just sent a prayer for you and all involved.
It is an honor to pray for fellow FReepers!
God bless and keep you all through this difficult time, and grant strength, healing and comfort to all, most especially kayak.
I'm thinking of you and sending up prayers on your behalf --
In His Name,
Daughter of Eve

Early morning prayers going up for you.
You're in my prayers.
We're keeping you in our prayers, kayak.
