Prayer Request…
Posted by Laura on Thursday Dec 10, 2009 Under The Big Picture
Today we got one of those kinds of phone calls. The kind when you know something is terribly wrong, and it’s not a good call.
My sister’s husband has cancer. Lots of testing is still going on, so we don’t know yet if it has spread, or not. All we know is that it is Hodgkin’s Lymphoma – which they say is the best kind to get, if one must. The most treatable, the highest survival rate, if caught early enough. That’s our prayer!
My sister asked us to get as many people praying as we can, just as anyone would. I told her that this blog is our best means to do that, as we know so many of you are the prayer warriors that we are. So she said it was ok to post this here. Her husband’s name is Kenny. They have 3 children. We ask that you please keep him in your prayers, that this disease is in the early stages, and God-willing, will be curable. Please pray for my sister….she is so very scared, not knowing what is going to happen.
We’d be thankful, from the bottom of our hearts.

May Jesus heal Kenny of this cancer, and envelope his wife and children with peace, trust and strength. Amen!
