I've known Sarabeth for over ten years now and she is always super-positive. Not now. She's been diagnosed with cancer and is so upset that she had a friend email her long-time online friends with the news. It's definitely serious, but I don't know any more than that. Sarabeth doesn't have any loved ones near her to help out, as far as I know, and so she is facing this awful diagnosis alone.

Please pray for her. She'll need every ounce of strength she has. (And pray for our group of online friends, that we may find ways to help from a distance. Please PM me if you have suggestions.)

Many thanks.

Dear Nancy,
I will keep Sarabeth close in prayer what a sad situation. This is when we all really need family, friends and close support - she has mine.
God Bless

P.S You could do a search on the Dove clinic which is where my niece who had cancer a couple of years ago got some of her treatment. It is in England but I do know there is another clinic somewhere in America or Mexico under a different name. Phillip Day also has written books on dealing with Cancer so maybe researching his offerings may be of some help.
