Please pray for my step-father Glenn. He has a tumor that is threatening his aorta. It is impossible to tell if it has invaded the aorta or not. They have to reduce the tumor in size. But if it has invaded the aorta (50% chance) it will leave a hole when it reduces (0 survival) He starts the chemo next week.
Prayer to Saint Peregrine
Dear Apostle of Emilia and member of the Order of Mary, you spread the Good News by your word and by your life witnessed to its truth. In union with Jesus crucified, you endured excruciating sufferings so patiently as to be healed miraculously of cancer in the leg. If it is agreeable to God, obtain relief and cure for GLENN and keep us all from the dread cancer of sin. Amen.

Oh, Jodie, I'm so, so sorry. I will of course beg the intercession of St. Peregrine for your step-father!
Keep us updated throughout chemo.

PRAISE - my parents have been offered a house they can park their RV at and plug in electric and water.. the cheapest they could find was $500 a month.. they normally work at RV parks for their space and hookups fees.. so this is a huge blessing and will ease some of the external worries.
Update - My dad has started the chemo, reacted a bit to it and was in the hospital for a while but has stablized and is feeling much better. They have to get the tumor reduced to the space they are able to use the radiation in (you can't overlap where there's been radiation).. that's when he'll be in immediate danger is when the radiation is started. I'll update again when they're going to start it for renewed prayers during that time.
Thank you all again.

I just said a prayer to St. Peregrine. I will continue to remember Glenn in my offerings.
May you, Glenn and all the family have what they need during this struggle with Cancer.

Continuing to pray for Glenn, your mom and all of you, Jodie! I'm rejoicing that they found an acceptable house for parking the RV! And, I will pray for fortitude for these rough days ahead...and they are rough! Keep the updates coming!
