My mom gave me an update on my cousin, Katie, with the brain tumor, and things are looking up a bit. They did an MRI and found that she has what they are calling a "dangling tumor." As I understand it, that means that it is not attached to the brain, but sort of floating adjacent to it. The very good news is that the cancer prognosis has flip-flopped. Whereas before she was told that she had an 80% chance that the tumor is malignant, now, since it is a dangling tumor, she has an 85% chance that it is benign. Praise God for that! The doctors are still very concerned about how to attack it. She may get radiation to make it smaller before they go in for surgery. Please continue your prayers . . . they are working!

I will certainly pray. My cousin,Katie,was diagnosed with lung cancer when her youngest of three was only 4 days old! She is in remission and doing great.
I know miracles can happen...they did for our Katie.

Praying!

I'm bumping this up because I just learned that Katie is scheduled for surgery next Wed. May 23.

She sent me a long email today and mentioned that a beloved uncle on the other side of the family died this week after a long bout with cancer and that another relative lost a battle to cancer recently too. Please pray for the souls of her relatives, but also for encouragement for Katie, who must find it difficult to face a possible diagnosis of cancer after these losses.

Please storm heaven for a complete healing for her.
Thank you!

Still praying for all of your intentions, Irene. We will especially remember Katie this Wednesday. May the Holy Spirit guide the surgeon and heal Katie.
