Diane, I almost do not want to come here because I know how much you have been thru, all I can do is pray, Lord heal Joe and this family and provide for them,amen
Praying for you and yours, Diane…I have been away from the Forum for a few months. My husband has pancreatic cancer (diagnosed in April, 2008) and it has been the most awful experience one can imagine. I mentioned before about his “chemobrain” and things getting done (decisions being made) irrationally and on the spur of the moment. For one …now we are in Pennsylvania from Florida. He wanted to be near his “family”. My 84 year old mother lives with us. I was fired (again) from a job–this has happened before. I miss too much work and take responsibility for being agitated because of all that has happened over the year. Now we have lost our home to bankruptcy, filed bankruptcy, are up in Philly and I cannot find work. We’re renting an apartment and Joe is experiencing ups and downs with moods. He is depressed mostly and has many headaches from his chemo. The dr. here is good and treats him with compassion far greater than the one in Florida. I am asking everyone who reads there to please pray for Joe. He went through Cyberknife (instead of surgery–he would have died from the surgery) and the dr. here says the solid mass is not so solid anymore and the dr keeps telling us things are going well. Joe just sits from the chair to the bed. My mom sits in her room and cries. I am so depressed (and this is hard to admit) I took a handful of pills thinking I didn’t want to wake up…but I did…I’m so very angry with everything. …It is so cold up here and the only reason I agreed to “come” with Joe was because he said he wanted a trial separation if I didn’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ve prayed to God, Our Mother, St. Perigonne, St. Jude…and anyone else who will listen…I Need prayers but for Joe’s recovery and for my mom. It hurts me so bad to see them suffer. PLEASE SAY A PRAYER FOR HIM. Over the last month I’ve felt my faith slipping away and I know it is wrong…PLEASE saya prayer for us. Diane

O Lord, please hear the persistent prayers of your people for Diane and her family. Bless them, comfort them, and grant them peace in you O Lord.Blessed Lord Jesus, we seek Your intercession with the Heavenly Father on behalf of this struggling family. Grant that healing graces flow from Heaven upon them. Grant Joe’s body the strength to fight the disease which threatens him; grant Diane’s mother a restoration of her health and spirit, and bless Diane with healing of mind, of body and of spirit in this time of severe trial. Graciously hear the endless stream of prayers on their behalf and implore the Father to take mercy upon them. In this mercy, may the events of their lives be ordered so that Your Divine Will be done. We ask this in Your Heavenly, Holy and Eternal Name, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Amen! Alleluia!
Continued prayers for you, your husband and your mother. I ask that the Lord send ministering angels upon you all. May our dear Blessed Mother intercede on your behalf. Amen
