Believe unflinchingly in your treatment
decisions, in your medicine and caregivers,
And in Gods power to heal you if it is His
will to do so.

Dear Lord, we keep our sisters before you in love and prayer today: Springtime, Genia and Robin. Please guide surgeons' hands and doctors' minds -- give them wisdom to be Your instruments of treatment and healing according to Your will. In the midst of pain, fear and feeling week, please help our sisters to hear Your still small voice of peace, love and comfort. May they gain strength from Your love, Lord, and from ours -- In Your name AMEN.

I have a praise report. My son Joshua finally saw the dr. and the place they are concerned about has shrunk. When I say he finally saw the dr it was a week later than orginally was suppose to be but it was the time God chose for him to be seen. The extra week waiting was more prayers going up for him. They will follow up later but no surgery needed. PRAISE GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I told him you better tell me everything and his response was of course mom. I go tomorrow for chemo and my next pet scan. I appreciate the prayers for me and the ones for Joshua. I guess I am a lil nervous of the scan. I have had lots of em along the way so I tend not to be to confident since if not good knocks you down harder. I know Gods word is true. I still claim healing but I let the human side kick in and that is a bad thing for there comes doubts. Genia I am praying for Robin and please keep us posted.God bless us all.

For Victory Over Fear
Heavenly Father, you are the guard and guide of
all who place their trust in you.Give us believing minds and trusting hearts.
You know the cares that often beset us and torment us.
You see the path that stretches out before us more
clearly than our eyes can discern it.Forgive the anxieties that cloud our minds and consume our energies.
In you and your promised word, may we rest and be strong.
Save us, Father, from undue self concern from dark fears, from distrust in your care.
Into your hand of love, we place our hands, and we face the future unafraid.
So shall your peace, which passes all understanding, be our strength and joy.
Then each passing day will bring new proof of your love and faithfulness.
At this moment, we rise to discover your plan, and this we
pray in the name of him who is the victory,
Jesus Christ our Lord.Amen.

Wow, what a beautiful, strengthening, and inspired prayer! Thank you for offering it up for all that read this thread! I think I will copy and send to many friends who need this.
dear sisters in the Lord, I am having surgery on Thursday morning.... the final phase of reconstruction (switch from temporary expanders for bil. mastectomy, to permanent). I would greatly appreciate your prayers for a smooth and uneventful surgery, that the cosmetic outcome would be great, and that I would have no post-operative complications of infection, etc....
Thank you my dear sisters. I'm sorry I haven't posted here much, but I subscribe to this thread and get strenghtened by reading everyone's prayers. May the Lord touch each one of you with renewed confidence in His unfailing love, and also supernaturally touch and restore our bodies to wholeness!

Let your light shine
If you ever have the opportunity to let your light shine, it is when you have cancer.
If ever you have the opportunity to be a powerful witness for Jesus Christ, it is in the
midst of your stuggle against this disease. Why? Your are far more credible witness to
God's love then someone whose life is disease-free and going well. Who is going to
listen to someone who has never had a problem in life? We speak not only of pain, but
the great resource of our faith in God during this time. Allow God to use you and your
situation to give Him glory. As the apostle Paul taught us: So whether you eat or drink
or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10: 31

We're so thankful that where there are 2 or 3 gathered and praying in Your name MIGHTY things will happen. We're looking forward to seeing the signs, wonders and miracles. In Jesus name!!!!!

Thank You, Lord, for answering our prayers about Robin. We always pray when we need help for ourselves and loved ones, and now we come to You again to say, thank you: for relieving Robin of this frightening burden, for the miracles of modern science that You have provided to relieve our fears, and take us along roads to recovery, in Jesus' name, Amen.

Hi Genia,
Surgery was yesterday and was 5 hours, but I popped right awake after. Was talkative and happy when wheeled back to the room where Richard (dH) was awiting! Walked the halls, drank, ate, peedl pooped, -- all the good stuff!I met with PS's the day prior to surgery, and to leave the MOST options open for later, we decided to *just* do the bilateral mastectomies this time both with immediate implants with AlloDerm. We're saving all my fat and flaps for after radiation. This way, we'll see how my skin/fat does with Rads and also how I like or dislike the prophylactic implant on the right.
anyway, I am FINE!!! Just wanted to thank all you ladies for your thoughts and prayers!
Spring...
PS Joan from Charlotte NC is also here and stopped by my room (she is JBR on the boards). She will be having surgery tomorrow, so please lift her up. We should overlap here at the hospital for a few hours. She'll be at the same hotel as us next week....

Please pray for a friend of mine who has been mentoring me since my dx. She is a member of my church and was dx 10 years ago. She was just dx with mets to the L1 vertebra and sternum. So far, we don't know what the plan is. She goes to the dr. on Tuesday. She takes care of her elderly mother and grandmother. Fortunately she is not in any pain.

Praise report from Granny: Did not have a stroke in the recovery room. The symptoms were the same as when I had light strokes in the past, but neurologist says this is probably from anesthesia and expects it to wear off. He's running other tests and sending me for physcial therapy to help me walk better. Dear Lord, thank you for your help, and now I lift up Jane's friend: Please give her special strength to get through until Tuesday, and raise up help for her, not only with our prayers but people to help with care for her mother and grandmother. Thank You, Lord, that she is not in pain .. With thanksgiving in the name of Jesus ... Amen.

Hi all......
I'm still treading water......lol.
I seriously made the statement.....this round of chemo isn't so bad! NEVER will I make a statement like that again!!! It may not have hit me in the usual way or followed the same pattern......but it sure didn't miss it's turn!!! It just waited longer.....was more sneaky this time. Plus the fact I ate some fish from Long John Silvers that gave me food poisoning.....I know this because my husband got sick too!!! We were down for the count for about 3 days. Add that to chemo......and you have quite a MESS!!!
I've done a lot of laying in bed......and sleeping......because frankly that's all I have had the energy to do!
Just TWO more rounds and I will be finished. You will all probably hear me shouting where you live.......cause I'm just so tired of feeling bad.
Thanks for your prayers.......they mean the WORLD to me........and your friendship as well!!! I am truly blessed to have found you all. Well I didn't find you.....God sent me here!
Jane....so sorry about your friend sweetie! I will be praying......hugs sweet lady
Love and hugssss and have a blessed wonderful day!

Oh Genia! Bless your heart! Food poisoning AND chemo...........that's a horrible combination. So glad there's only two more to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeehaaaaaa..........count down is on, huh? I pray that you gain strength and feel better today. I pray for all the ladies on this board to feel a special presence of God and His angels. Lord, we're so thankful for being with Springtime during her surgery. Continue to strengthen her body for a quick healing! Please bless Granny today and help her through physical therapy in the weeks to come. Bless Jane's friend.......give peace and comfort during this difficult time. Dear Lord, please bless Sue to have a quick recovery from surgery, with no complications, plenty of strength and courage. Also, bless EWB and Footprintsangel today. Keep them under your tender hand, continuing to lead, guide and encourage. We thank you for another day and for the many blessings You give us daily. Please help us to never take anything for granted........family, friends, home, health, strength....Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!

Dear Genia and Friends, May you find peace as you work threw your battles. God is alway there to carry us when we get weak, I know that we are winners and can stay strong together. I was feeling weak and high blood pressure threw my breathing class and they took me to ER. I am weak but doing better. Someone took my out late to a church party and said they would mow for me. Guess what never showed up cause the wife said it wasnt long enough. So I mowed with a mask and wraps on (and Gods Help) Going to eat and rest alittle, God bless you all, Debbie
