For some reason, my posts have not been showing up the past few days. Never the less, I have been praying and continue to pray to St. Peregrine for our special requests, Heidi-Ho, Stephanie, and all who are suffering from breast cancer.

Lord, if it is your will save Heidi... Help us to understand if you take her home. Amen.
Thanks for posting Nancy, I knew you were still here...:)

For all mothers....in love and prayer. We all are needy, we all have so much to share. It is a beautiful thing. I am starting through RCIA with my 17 year old daughter, (she missed out on confirmation, but wants to receive the sacrament before she leaves home next year) and I am so behind on my reading. You all have motivated me to get off the web, and open my Bible. I need to be a good mama.
Thank you,
Susan

I sure will...I am sorry...
I remember a time in my life.. not too long ago, that I had so much trouble praying. I felt like it did no good... just the way you are feeling now. God will wait for you. Bless you sweet lady..
How are you doing with the Thyroid Cancer? Did they get you cleared of it?
Praying for your faith and belief in God will return...

hopefor30, I feel that God isn't up there, smiting us with our cancers. That's too petty. There are things in our environment that set the cancers off...things that the industrial age has put there, not God. The free will of man created the mess we live in.
Remember, too, that for all the forces of good that are at work, there are opposite forces...evil, or the devil, if you will. God isn't running around putting out all the fires that the devil sets, although sometimes, He sets some things right...miracles, the things we pray for.

Good morning dear friends: Hopefor30, I understand your feelings. First of all your cancer prognisis seems to be quite good. Thryoid cancer has become so prevalant, in fact 2 very young ladies, just in the small office i work in were diagnosed just last year, just months between each diagnosis. Depending on what type of thryoid cancer you have even a stage 3 would be considered not life threatening. I'm sure your doctor gave you some idea, but of course the word cancer sends us all into terror. I myself am a 2x survivor of cancer. None of us know when we will be called home and I feel I have been given an oportunity to ready myself. Would of hated to be the one who stepped off a curb 22 years ago and got hit by a bus, wasn't ready at all back then. The one guarantee we have in this world is that we are all going to die. I can't tell you how many people 22 years ago looked at me with such pity and have since past and here I am.
God does not want us to dwell on bad things, HE first wants us to trust in HIM, to lean not on your own understanding, keep your mind on positive things. Remember stress can give you all kinds of pain. In places you can't even imagine, and you would swear that the pain can't possibly be related to nerves, and guess what, it is. That is why you need to sit and if you can't pray, just grab a Bible or a crucifix and just hold on to them and cover yourself with HIS PRESENSE. Just have a simple conversation, tell HIM just like you told us your feelings. Don't look to man LOOK TO HIM. My dear girl I will pray for you. Remember we have all been there. Faith and Trust is the hardest thing in our walk of Faith.
Continuing to pray IN THE NAME OF JESUS, for all those who suffer, in body and mind that they find PEACE. Asking for the Intersession of all the SAINTS. GOD HAVE MERCY.....

Dear Hope I can feel the pain in your post, I really understand and empathize. I lost my Mom when I was 5 and prayed my whole life that my kids would not be put through what I went through, I also prayed that my kids would be healthy as I just could not take another trauma like the first. Well I was dxed in april 2008, then my 8 year old was dxed in June 2008 with Juvenile Diabetes. BAM BAM, then my Husband lost is job 3 months later. I really thought how could God put me through all of this. HOW HOW HOW?? It was horrible and I havnt even mentioned some of the really bad emotional stuff. BUT.....I tried to contiue to have faith. It has been very difficult and many days I just want to keep the covers over my head, But when I finally feel "THE Peace" it is so right. AND I will tell you by coming to this thread and talking about how I feel and these ladies are so very supportive.
I will pray for you today!

Good afternoon ladies-
Thanks to all of you joining the prayers I feel it, it is like a wonderful buzz. I wanted to share with you ladies that I had a chance to attend mass this am with my kids for their weekly mass and it was 600 students praying ,singing, and clapping and just so reverent. They know more about the Catholic religion that I ever have. It was pure joy ,I thought to myself if all of us could start our days with this type of reverence, and pure Joy the world would be a better place. I just wanted to leave there and shine.
Your prayers and support have given me strength and hope for the beautiful life I ALREADY have.
Day 3 to Our Lady of Guadalupe. I am naming all of you ladies by name in this intention and Some friends on the other threads as well so I hope you are feeling these prayers.
Much Peace to all of you Michelle

Ladies, I'm here tonight to ask you to keep my father in your prayers. He's 90 and has been failing these last six months but now he's really close to passing. He's unresponsive and his lungs are filling with fluid. Until last month, he lived with me, but when he needed fulltime care, my sister stepped up and offered to take him to her home. She and her husband are retired and have the time to be his fulltime caregivers.
He's only been there three weeks, but this past week he really sank physically. I'm feeling that his time to pass is very close.
He has been an active Catholic his entire life...Catholics schools from elementary through college. He has sung in church choirs for over 75 years...his last performance was last February before he took sick.
In all ways, he has been a loving and supportive Dad. Maybe he wanted things done his way more than I liked, but they were never too hard to do.
I can't bring myself to pray that he lives longer because he doesn't have any sense of the world around him. He's not "with" us anymore. I do pray that he finds peace.

Nancy... omgosh..
I know death is the new life...
But when I read what you wrote.. I know the "missing" of what we remember...
I still have my father and mother...
I know know how I remember them.. active in my life.. active in my children's lives... in the Church.. camping.. girl scouts.. etc.. just ...LIFE... the thought of them passing.. is so hard for me.. as I love them so and have such memories.. as you do. ...I will miss them.. miss our.. "family"... oh boy...
I PRAY hard for your father to join our Father.. and to reap the JOY we were promised someday.... I pray your father dances with Jesus...and sings in heaven...
If I may.. I also pray that you and your siblings... have a gentle mourning time....
GOD BLESS you!
