Do any of you have prayer requests??

Grandpa is doing worse than ever. He's bleeding internally and they're doing a blood transfusion. He's on a feeding tube.

My mom said by the sounds of it, he won't be here much longer. I think this would be for the better, but I'm not sure how well I can deal with this.

We're going to visit him in the hospital right now and I don't know if I can do this. Please give me strength.

Kay, HUGS to you and prayers for your Grandpa.

If Grandpa passes, that will be two dearly beloved people you have lost in a very short time. Please find a way to take care of yourself, even if it is grief counselling (I used that for a few months and it was worth it - and free through the hospital).

Positive thoughts and hugs to everyone who needs them.

Robin has been having a lot of pain in her ribs, and her shoulder. They did a bone scan, and an xray on Monday to see if her cancer had spread.. They called her today with the results, and said she had a tumor on her shoulder.. She also has 2-3 tumors on her breast bone. She had cancer there in 2005.
She also has a cracked rib.. But they said there isn't anything they can do for that.

She was in stage 4 of Metastatic Breast Cancer.. But they have upgraded it to stage 5. Which is the last stage that you can go to... They are doing a cat scan on Monday to see if it has spread to any of her major organs.. The doctor doesn't know for sure, but he said he thinks that it has.

She told me today not to even think of Christmas this year, because she won't be here for Christmas.

Prayers and good thoughts are definitely needed for our family... We thought she was getting better, and she had started gaining weight back, and then we find this out..

[Catty1]

oh molucass!

What a shock for both of you...I hope the scan shows little or no growth, and that there is still something they can do to fight this illness.

Please give Robin gentle {{{hugs}}} from me. I pray for a miracle for her and you; this ain't over yet.

Maybe have an early Christmas - and if she survives, well, you'll just have to do it all over again.

Sending thoughts for everyone.


A little news on my grandpa...
They found a grapefruit size tumor in his colon not too long ago. He was finally stable enough that they doctors felt it was okay to do surgery. They started at 10:30 this morning and I called a few moments ago and they said they were just stitching up. They said he had a 50/50 chance of making it through and so far, he's made it.


I really appreciate everyone who's kept our family in your thoughts.

I have a big one, but I've seen PT prayers work miracles. My father and my brother had a construction business that has just closed. They owe staggering amounts of money to their creditors, which they definitely do not have. The calls and letters have escalated. The business owns a building which, if it would sell, would provide the funds to settle many of the debts. The real estate market stinks to say the least. So, everyone, could you pray that someone would want to buy the building.

I have GOOD NEWS- a potential buyer came to look at the building yesterday and came back today - so we are hoping. Please pray that either this might be "the one" or the financial situation might ease up somehow.

Well, there's an offer. It's not the offer we wanted, but it's an offer. The bad news is all the fees and taxes that will be owed. Grrrrrr!

Update to the update. Because of zoning issues, the transaction needs to past first the Planning and Zoning Commission and then the full city council. It's in a residential neighborhood but the business was there before the zoning ordinance took effect. Please keep praying.

The P&Z commissioner came in and took a look around. There's nothing that isn't fixable. The buyer is still interested. Thank you for your prayers about that.

On another note ... On Monday night I slipped on a wet wooden porch step and gave myself a right distal tibia fracture. (That round bump you have on the inside of your ankle, that's where it's broken.) So I have a short leg cast and crutches for a minimum of three weeks. Grrrrrrr! Just call me Cassie's gimpy mom. Crutches are *no fun*!

So sorry to hear of all your troubles. Life sure can test us, sometimes. Keep your chin up and your eyes on the road

Mine is a request to make the pain go away.

Sending prayers for the sale to conclude & for your poor ankle, ouch! Jack & Star send you their best sibe vibes & husky kisses.

Kay, we're still praying for your grandpa & you & family.
