Need more prayers please.. really serious :(

No, it's not for Bassett.. she's fine! :)

It's my uncle (my dad's sister's hubby). He was having stomach pains, and was scheduled for a galbladder surgery. Well, it isn't his galbladder at all - he has inoperable stomach cancer. There is a huge tumour, and it has spread into his liver. They are starting chemo and radiation right away, but it's mostly to try and stop the growth and shrink the tumour to make him more comfortable, not because it would be a "cure".. this is a very serious case and his doctor told him "you have to pray because this calls for a miracle" :(

I know your prayers worked miracles on Bassett.. do you think you could also include my Uncle Eddie in there too? He is still young, and has a 16yr old son who looks like he will have a promising chance at baseball scholarships and stuff.. it's too sad to think about it :(

Please pray for Uncle Ed.

Oh Nom! Prayers on the way!!:(

What a shock. Prayers on the way for your Uncle Eddie.

What awful news. Positive thoughts are on the way to your uncle and his family.

I am very sorry to hear about you Uncle.
I am sending prayers and good thoughts yours
and your families way.

Prayers on the way for your Uncle ED.

I'll be including your uncle Ed in my prayers.

OMG ... I'm so sorry to hear this .. I went through the same thing a while back and unfortunately my uncle didn't make it - now I will pray that yours does. Lets hope that miracle does happen. :)

Oh my what a shock to think it would be something routine like a gall bladder surgery and then get this news! :( I know so many people who are suffering with cancer these days. I surely do wish a cure could be found soon! Prayers are certainly on the way for Uncle Ed and his entire family (you included). :(

Oh, Naomi:( I'm so sorry:( I'll be keeping your uncle and your entire family in my thoughts and prayers. {{{hugs}}} Sandra

Naomi,

I am so sorry to hear about your uncle Eddie. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers and also light a candle.

Nomilynn, that same One who heard the pleas for Bassett will also hear the pleas for your Uncle Ed!

Why do doctors always have this gloom and doom attitude? Anyway we'll keep everything crossed and hope for the best-or better than best!!Ed's guardian angel needs a kick in the pants!

Good vibes his way and your way too.

Cancer is a big problem for Moldova too :(

Prayers are on the way for your uncle. Your uncle and your family will be in my thoughts.

Nom,

I'm going to talk to my mom today about what services Hospice offers the family in times like this...maybe they have something/someone your aunt can talk to, I know lots of clergypeople volunteer for Hospice. Maybe that could help her?

I PM'd you with some books I found online last night. Maybe one of them can help as well.

I'll be praying for Eddie and your family. I believe in miracles...

Love,
Kelly

Thank you everyone :)

Kelly, at this point I'm not going to send my aunt books or advice or anything.. I know her too well, and it's too soon and it's just not the right time. But I'll bookmark any links you send me :)

I will keep you updated on this as I know more

prayers on the way!

Our thoughts and prayers will be with you, your Uncle Ed and his family.

Naomi, I'm so sorry to hear this tragic news. :( Prayers and positive thoughts are on the way for your Uncle Ed and his family. Please take care.

Is there any more news on Uncle Eddie?? How is he doing??

Sorry I didn't see this sooner...

He was feeling well enough to go see his son play baseball in Oregon, so I think that's a good sign :) As far as I know, he starts treatments this week. He's also been able to gain a bit of weight with protein drinks and heavy soups (the tumour prevents him from swallowing solid foods, as it's butting against the esophagus). So, things are going well for now :) Thanks for asking :)
