Dawn, I am praying for Terry that things go well and it has not spread. For you for the strength you need. For the doctors that God guides them through the care of Terry.

Jan I am praying for you today also that your procedure goes well and you recover quickly.

I also have a request for everyone to pray for my cousin who was diagnosed with stage 2 ovarian cancer on Friday.

Thanks to all,

Dawn I am so sorry to hear about the problems that Terry is having what a very stresfull time for you both .
I will be thinking of you both, its amazing what modern medicine can do so lets hope for a good outcome,
keep posative and keep fighting it . Sue x

I just wanted to thank you all for your thoughts, prayers, phone numbers, cards, poems (Thanks Rita!) and sisterly love! I will be away from my computer most of tomorrow and Tuesday, and didn't want to let another day pass without saying "Thank you!" Terry has three separate appointments at the hospital tomorrow. One for an MRI at 7 AM, one for a dye injection at 11 AM, and one at 1:30 for a bone scan. So, he will be busy! Somewhere between 9 and 10:30, I need to turn in all of my items at the fair. I will take a book and a quilt that has a few dozen knots to tie and bury, for my down time. Again, thank you all! You mean ever so much to me!

Dawn, I am so sorry and I will most definitely continue to pray for both of you!

Rita, thanks for sharing that wonderful prayer!

You are most welcome!

Rita.

Rita, that is a beautiful prayer--thank you for sharing it.

Hi Dawn, So sorry to hear your news. I am not a religious person at all but there is a Prayer for Protection called "The Deer's Cry" (St. Patrick's Breastplate) from which you might find some solace. And I hope you don't mind if I post it here.

I arise today through the strength of heaven. Light of sun radiance of moon, splendor of fire, speed of lightening, swiftness of wind, depth of the sea, stability of earth, firmness of rock. I arise today through God's strength to pilot me. God's eye to look before me, God's wisdom to guide me, God's way to lie before me, God's shield to protect me from all who shall wish me ill afar and a-near, alone and in a multitude. Against every cruel merciless power that may oppose my body and soul. Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ to shield me, Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, I arise today.

Best wishes all the way from misty Co Kerry, Ireland to you and your family at this difficult time,
Rita -

Dawn your family will be in my thoughts and I hope that the results are as you wish

Oh Dawn, I'm so sorry to hear that the news was what you feared. I'm doubling my prayers that the cancer hasn't spread! I'm hearing a lot of good things about how treatment for prostate cancer has improved, so I hope that's all you and Terry have to deal with. I'll send you my phone number in an email, and please call if you ever need someone to vent to! Many hugs, Robin

Dawn, you and Terry are actively included in my prayers. I pray that you receive the guidance and support you need through this most difficult journey.

Dawn - I'm not a religious person, but please know that my thoughts are with you and Terry in this difficult time. May you be a source of strength and comfort to each other as you face the future together. Mary

Praying for God's hand of mercy on you both.

Dawn, so sorry to hear the news. Praying the cancer is contained and that the doctors will know and do what is best for him. You will be on the top of my list. God Bless and hugs. Jan
