"PRAYER REQUESTS FOR MY FAMILY"


Dear John & Doves,
 
My husband Lee had his 12th chemo therapy treatment on 10/26 which concludes his 5 month chemo therapy treatment.  In approximately 2 weeks he will be undergoing a body scan and a bone marrow extraction to see if there is any Hodgkins Lymphoma left in his liver, spleen, lymph nodes and bone marrow.  Please pray that he will be found cancer free. About two months ago 95% of the cancer was gone.  Please also pray that the cancer will not return within two years because there is a 50% chance it won't return and a 50% chance that it could return since he was in the 4th stage of Hodgkins Lymphoma when he began treatment back at the end of May of this year which is the final stage of Hodgkins Lymphoma. His doctor told us if the cancer returns it usually comes back within two years.   Lee will also be having major oral surgery to have all his remaining top teeth removed on Thurs. 11/04.  So please pray that there aren't any kind of complications with that surgery as well.
 
Please also please continue to pray for my son Darren Howell who is coming down with bronchitis which he seems to get every year.  He just got over another urinary tract infection a short while ago again but at least he was willing to take antibiotics this time.  Darren is also having a problem where he wakes up and can see things in the room, but he can't move and can't speak so he has to cry out to Jesus in his mind to help him. This has happened 4 times so far and he is supposed to be seeing a doctor about it so please pray that they discover what is causing his problem.
 
Also please pray for my daughter-in-law who is going through the pain and suffering of a marital breakup.  She wanted my step-son to see a marriage counselor with her, but he refused.  Please pray for his salvation.  They have two children who are 8 and almost 3 yrs. old.  Please pray for the children as well.  The 8 yr. old daughter has a learning disability that includes dyslexia and a short term memory problem so she is having difficulty with her schoolwork.
 
Thank you for your prayers.
 
God bless,
Donna
