Prayers

Please keep my Dad in your prayers today.  He is having surgery to remove 2 tumors from his stomach this morning.  It is another cancer they have found in addition to the lymphoma.  My dad has been through so much the past several months and has held up pretty well.  I am very grateful for his progress and the fact that my mom has been able to be there and take excellent care of him.  

I am sure that his progess has alot to do with so many people keeping my family in their prayers, I appreciate it more than I can say.  This picture is from a day he was able to come home last week that I was able to spend with him.  I'll update soon.  Thanks for reading and take good Care!

    Dee, Isaiah 58:8 says "My light shall break forth like the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedly." This i'm believing for your daddy today. God always knows what's best and he will heal your dad in his own time, we only have to believe. May God wrap his arms around you and your entire family today and in the days ahead is my prayer for you.

    P.S. Does he have a church?
    I remember this scripture:
    James 5:14-15
    Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15) And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up.

    Hello gals,
    Thank you for all your prayers and concern for my dear father. He made it safely through the surgery and has been slowly recovering. They were able to remove one of the tumors which was larger than they thought, the other may have to be revisited. It was quite painful for him afterwards which is hard to see since I always envisioned my dad as a rock. He is doing well after a couple of weeks now though so I am so grateful for all of your prayers, kind words and support. He will be starting a stem cell replacement along with another round of chemo very soon. This is a touchy round, because it will be strong and his immune system will be knocked down pretty low but I have faith he will pull through it once again. I have spent my free time with him leaving little time to make another post but I will be back to update shortly, the spring season is around the corner and I cannot wait for a change of scenery. I hope you all are well, I'll try to get on over to see you on your blogs and catch up on your posts as well. Thank you all once again for contintuing to read and to come back. I hope to look back on these posts next year grateful for most of it to be behind us!
    Take good care of yourselves! XO Dee

    Just discovered your lovely blog. I hope your dad is continuing to recover well. I pray that his recovering will be so swift & sure that it astounds the Drs & leaves so doubt of the Lord's work in his life. Amen.
