Another update on K:
She continues to improve, albeit somewhat slowly, but there is nevertheless continued improvement. She was having coughing spells which helped her expel fluid lingering from the pneumonia, especially when she would talk for a prolonged time on the phone with her husband to be.
She’s got a lot going on; adjusting to a new kidney, recovering from surgery, recovering from pneumonia, and cancer. She says she feels like she’s been in a boxing ring and every time she gets up she gets knocked back down again. Still, even with all of that, she seems to be getting better.
Her coughing is now less than it was and she is more vigorous, which includes sounding better and talking on the phone for extended periods of time. Tonight she is going to attempt once more to go through the night without the aid of a ventilator.
She is scheduled for her first localized chemo on Tuesday. If the first treatment works, she won’t need more, but if it doesn’t, then of course the treatments will need to be repeated.
Let us pray then that the first treatment is successful.
I and K’s family thank you for all of your prayers. I will continue to remember you in my prayers, although unfortunately I was distracted and forgot to do that during Christmas Mass (I was too taken up with seating arrangements, click on Re: A very odd Christmas Mass Experience post #26 for a further explanation.)
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us
not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed
is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us
sinners now and at the hour of our deaths, amen.

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell,
and lead all souls to heaven, especially those most in need of your mercy.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end, amen.
Dear Lord, if it be Thy will, let K’s cancer be cured on the first go-round of the
localized treatments and let her escape further rounds of chemo, amen.
