Late last week it was reported in the local news that a young man had been struck by a freight train, and was killed. It appeared he had intentionally stepped in front of the train. I found out today it was a young man who had gone to the same high school as my youngest niece - he was one year ahead of her. Talented family involved in music and theater, as was my niece - so I recognized the name. Sad that someone so young chose the option he did. Maybe he felt like he had no other choices or that his life would not get any better
So if you could say a prayer for Jacob's family, please.


Thank you,
Elyse

I got an e-mail about Mary today. She had a seizure and her doctor ordered a new MRI of her brain. The tumor looks different on this MRI and Mary's doctors are not yet sure if the tumor has grown or if there is still swelling related to her radiation. Her husband has been out of town for work, but he's coming home. Could you please keep Mary and her family in your prayers again.

Thank you,
Elyse

My friend Mary had brain surgery today to address this new tumor. I have not heard yet how it went.

Asking for prayers for my grand daughter, Lauren. She is in the hospital - mom and dad (Amy (Cincy's Mom) & Ralph (Sadie's Dad) are with her and will be spending the night with her. She has had some kind of virus or something - has had it for over a week now. For several days she wouldn't eat anything but drank quite a bit. Has been running low grade fever. Main symptoms is not urinating for long spans of time - 7-10 hrs and uncomfortableness/irritability. In hospital mostly for testing. She is 20 months old now, can't really tell us what is wrong. Please pray for my baby girl!

Prayers on the way for Lauren, and the staff treating her that they find a reason and can help!

^^This was in early April. To make a very long story short - the tumor had grown again. Mary went through another surgical procedure, and the repeat MRI showed that it only helped for a few weeks. The tumor has already started to recur again. I got an e-mail today that there are no further treatment options available to Mary, so she will be transitioning to hospice care. This is very sad news. Just from early April to now.

glad to hear that Lauren is better & back home with Amy & Ralh & the pups. Scary when little ones get sick!

prayers for your friend Mary, Elyse, that is devastating news. Praying she & her family find some peace & comfort together during some very difficult times.

Prayers for Mary and all who care for her.

My friend Mary, who's a couple of years younger than me and has three children, has been on chemotherapy for recurrence of a brain tumor for over a year. The tumor has stopped responding to the chemotherapy and she will be starting on a new medication probably next week. Please pray that the new medication will work.

I got another E-mail about an hour ago. Mary passed away this morning at the hospice center. Thank you, everyone for your thoughts and prayers.

Take solace knowing that she is now at peace and suffering no more. I worked with 3 women - all in their 40's and 50's - that passed away far too young from brain tumors. It just didn't seem fair for them to be taken in the prime of their lives.

Our prayers for Mary's family and love ones. Rest in peace, dear lady.
