Hello po18guy

I’m glad to hear the second treatment went alright. Thanks be to God. I’m continuing to prayer for you and your family to help you all through this.
 
Brothers and sisters in Christ,

I must declare that I absolutely do not feel like a cancer patient! I can only credit your on-going and fervent prayers for calling God’s graces down upon my family and I. As I go to work, I pray that the Lord will send me someone to minister to, even though it be only a smile. I try to give constant thanks to the Father, both for His Graces and for your continued kindness in prayer.

I suppose it would be correct to say that I’ve had a weak and vain moment or two as I watch my physical appearance begin to change, but it is all vanity. The Lord has given me a purpose and I must strive to fulfill it.

The utterly amazing amount of love and support that we have received from all of you just firms up my knowledge that I am unworthy, but persist only by the Grace of God. I can only pray that leading one hapless soul to Him, or back to Him might somehow secure some small mercy on my behalf. Since only He knows the day of His call, I must persevere with fear and trembling, as our beloved Saint Paul admonished.

I have been a procrastinator all of my life, and this is a huge lesson to me! Without His mercy, we would have no hope!

Praying for all of you.
 
As my parish priest says, we’ll continue “stormin’ the gates of Heaven for you!”

Continued prayers promised, my friend.

May the Lord ever increase your righteousness and draw you and your family near to Him in these difficult times.

May Blessed Mary continue her lovingly devoted prayers for you and for us all. Through her intercession, may we all be strengthened and may our prayers for you, Po, be heard.

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!

God bless you, Po.
 
Ahhh, po18:

That was a very heartfelt post. I’m so happy to hear that you are taking up your cross. It’s hard, but you’re doing it! I will keep praying that your treatments go well and that ultimately you are healed! Praise God!

much love,

***Your testimony of faith as you embrace this cross ***
is ‘ministry’ and ‘prayer’; very inspiring!
Continuing in prayer for you…
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us, and increase Your mercy in us, so that in difficult moments we might not despair, nor become despondent, but with great confidence, submit ourselves to Your Holy Will, which is Love and Mercy itself. Amen
 
I am very happy that your treatments are going well! When I first joined the Forum I have to admit that I was a little aprehensive, but something told me that I should. I am forever grateful that I did and am always encouraged by reading different posts and the words and prayers that everyone from all over give. I am deeply touched by your words of faith and encouragement, they mean so much to so many here. May God continue to bless you and your family, we will all continue to pray for you!

You are, surely, ministering to us!!! I sure need it.

Do not be too hard on yourself, from a “once upon a time” a girl, I argue with the mirror constantly, as it insists on telling me, that that was a Long, Long time ago 🤷 😃 Just kick vanity in the face, tell her that, your soul is beautiful and ageless:thumbsup:

I’m seeking the Lord’s help with perfecting the state of my heart, as our resurrected bodies will be far superior to those we are now stewards of. However, if I’m hard on myself, I just may save the Lord from the task!

A friend asked me yesterday how I was doing. I advised her that my answer may disappoint her and requested that she seek the answer form the Lord, because He knows and I truly do not. Talk with me is cheap, but conversation with God is priceless.

Thanks to all who pray, including you cassie89, He blesses us constantly, as is proper to his inexhaustible supply of love. How could He possibly ignore the storming of His Kingdom with prayer? God bless you!

This all has come somewhat late in life for me, but once you know God’s purpose for you, it is liberating!

Christ’s peace be with you.
 
We are so blessed to have you on this site praying with us and for us each and everyday! How wonderful it is just to know you!
I pray that you are surrounded by angels. That God will grant you strength beyond that of regular humans. May he continue to bless you and heal you so that your prayers can help all of us to feel blessed and receive a healing.

We love you so very much!!!

So good to see you back, Pam. Thank you for your encouraging words, which were needed today, and may the Lord smile upon your new capacity.

Christ’s peace.
 
Po18guy,

I hope that you get a little giggle from this…

Today at our Healing Mass, the priest said “Let us name before God those for whom we offer our prayers” Then the people audibly name those for whom they are interceding for. I went through my list…Judy, Donna, Dawn and Po18guy(I couldn’t recall your real name…)…😉

God Bless!

Thank you and may the Lord bless you! What a difference two days can make! Had a bit of a rough day yesterday. The aggressive treatment is the hard way to go, but is essentially the only way if you want to beat this. It takes more of a toll than the illness itself. As I worked last evening (for some odd reason), I kept asking the Lord to strengthen me. And, He has. I am continuously thankful for your prayer support.

(Jim)
 
Po18! I just found this thread. Hadn’t known… may my prayers now be both retroactive and for the future.

Dearest Blessed Mother, wrap your loving mantle around Jim and present him to your Divine Son. Please obtain from Him for Jim a complete healing that Jim’s health will be a testimony to the power and mercy of your loving Son, our Lord Jesus. May God’s holy will be done! 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 death. Amen.

Thank you and God bless you! I will give a kind of general reply here, if you don’t mind. I was kind of cocky the first two weeks of chemo, since it hadn’t “hit”. Well, it hit. I am now much more fond of naps, even though I wiil have to continue working for a few more weeks or so. My hair is mostly a memory and I’ve dropped 8 pounds or so. I have the stamina of a Mayfly.

If not for the generous prayer support, I would be flat on my back. The tears still come when I read the posts.

Christ’s peace be with all of you.
 
I marvel at your strength, and steadfast faith. :o It is in times like these, that our faith is tested…and you seem to be passing with flying colors. I have been praying for you in my Rosary, po18guy…know that you are thought of often, and that I pray for you to be healed soon. You’re an inspiration–know that somewhere in all of this, by God’s infinite graces, that you have become an inspiration to me, and I’m sure so many on here.

PS–Did you look into that herbal supp that is supposed to help increase one’s immune system, during chemo treatments? (blue green algae…I could resend you the link if you like) 🙂
 
Hi guys,

Kind of been busy with kids going back to school among other things. But wanted all to know I do remember all intentions and those who ask for prayers even if you don’t see me posting every day.

Glad to see our friend (po18guy) is inspiring us and witnessing his faith as he does so well. Bless you…

God Bless all and still praying…

Simon
