My dad was treated for lymphoma 7 years ago and has been mostly healthy since. Yesterday, though, at his regular checkup his doc found 3 suspicious nodes. He goes back in 3 weeks to see if they change. Please pray that they shrink or disappear. If they're still there, I pray they will be the type that can be treated with a medicine he can take. This has happened two other times and he's reached his lifetime limit on several medications.

Also, depending on when you're reading this, would say a quick prayer for my dh? His physical is at 9:30am eastern today. I'll update his heart health on his prayer thread when I know something.

Blessings,
Molly

We're praying, Molly. I missed the "9:30" window, but hope that all went well.

Just thinking about your Dad and praying for him. I hope his suspicious lymph nodes have disappeared.

Praying for your husband as well.

We found out yesterday that Dad is having a recurrence. We don't find out the specific strain (?) of lymphoma until next week (which will determine his treatment) and we go the the beach the following week, so he'll start his treatments when we get back. This is his third recurrence, and he and my mom are taking it really hard. Your continued prayers are appreciated. Thank you!

Molly,

Praying hard!!!! I'm sure you're all very upset at this turn of events. May the Holy Spirit send you peace and fortitude.
