JoeMo Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Please pray for my mom, Mary. She has had bladder cancer for some time now. Her bladder just ruptured; and she is in surgery. She's almost 87 years old; and is scared to death of being put in a nursing home or becoming dependent on others; so I don't even know what to pray for. I guess just acknowledging that God knows what is best for her; and that he would do whatever is best for her. Thanks ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members phkrause Posted May 2, 2013 Members Share Posted May 2, 2013 Will be praying JoeMo. I know how you feel, my Mom also being 87 and will be 88 this August, doesn't want to be in a nursing home, or not being independent, etc. Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness.

JoeMo Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Thank you for your prayers! As usual, God came through! My mom is already out of surgery! They managed to repair the bladder without having to remove it or the affected kidney. They put in a permanent shunt from kidney to urethra to take strain off bladder. No organ removal; no serious blood loss, no apperent complications! Doc said if all goes well, she'll be home by mid-week next week! praise God for His goodness, mercy, and healing grace; and may He bless all of you for your prayers and support! You are my church!

JoeMo Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 I sort of "jumped the gun" on the shunt deal yesterday. They have my mom back in surgery this morning to put in the shunt; so she's not out of the woods yet... I truly appreciate your prayers and emotional support. You are my church family!

JoeMo Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Update: They were able to repair my mom'r bladder and successfully insert the shunt. Biopsies came back eith no signs of tumors. Dr was clear that does not mean cancer cured; it simply means none was evident in the biopsies. Regardless, I do not view this as a spontaneous healing or defensive medicine. My mom could have (maybe even should have) died during this event. Your prayers (and those of others) intiated a miracle by God to heal my mom for the time being.

Thank you all for being channels for God's healing! Agree and Hallelujah on everything but the "maybe even should have". Prayer does not order God around, God did it and was glad to, I say. He has a well-ordered reason for this saving business--He LOVES your Mom to pieces! (Or more accurately, loves every little piece of her,lol.) And Happy Mom's Day to you and her!

JoeMo Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 God is truly amazing! After several "complications" over the past week, my mom got som great news - all of her biopsies from the past couple weeks have come back with no signs of malignancies! Her doctors said that her chemo therapy was intended to at best slow the growth of her tumors. She's not out of the woods yest cuz of her age and complications with her surgery from a couple weeks ago - but cancer-free??!! GOD IS SOOO GOOD!! Whatisthis - you are absolutely correct; God is in the saving business cuz He loves every piece of us! To all of you who prayed - I consider this a miracle - and you all were God's channel for performing this miracle. Thank you all for praying and believing! And thanks be to God for his answer to prayer and His love and honor in answering your prayers. You can all now claim to have taken part in a miracle healing (if that's not too charismatic of a stance)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm glad your mom is doing as well as she is. I know I miss my mom terribly. Now my dad is getting ready to die any day now, I think. But in his case, it will be a blessing. I can't stand seeing him the way he is. Nobody knows how much he is suffering, because he has been a vegetable for the last several years, and can't talk. The final stages of alzheimers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
