Kind of Shook Up...Need Prayers

[rmpackers]

" Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."

Lamentations 3:22-23 (NIV)

[MEDISIN]

Will keep her in our prayers. Keep the faith brother.

[firstmate]

My thoughts are with her, and all of your family, and I pray for the best possible outcome from this point.

Tanner,

If the bladder has been compromised they will be able to take it out, based on her age and other factors this is a real surgery that can be overcome. My Aunt had hers removed and OLD age killed her, 25 years with hers removed. My Mother had the same things but cancer was in more places, but they were able toscrape the bladder and slow things way down, because of her age 72 removal was not an option and since she already had a colostomy bag she didn't want another. Be strong my Brother, this can be overcome.

Wow, that's tough and I will keep you in my prayers. Stay strong in faith...God bless.

I have lost an Aunt, Uncle and Mother in the last three years to Cancer and bladder problems. This is really hitting me hard. Thanks in advance for any prayers.

Just read this thread. I feel terrible for your wife and you. You will be added to our prayers as well.

My daughter, Rebecca, and I pray together at night. She is deeply saddened when I add names to our list. She is very compasionate and really cares about people. Much like her old man. Best wishes for you guys and good luck to her. Please let us know how it turns out.

Tanner,
You and your wife will be added to our prayers. Please put out her name so we ask God specifically for her healing and for the doctors to get all the cancer.

I hate the word "cancer" Its probably the worst word ever!! I lost 3 close family members in the last 2 years to the "C" word. My prayers will be with you and Scott today!!

Thanks for all the prayers. She had her first treatment yesterday and she is doing fine. Now we look forward riding around in the Camaro and listening to the music we listened to in my old 68 Camaro when we were dating 27 years ago. Our Camaro should be here any day. They say it's down at the train yard and they don't control when it gets brought to the dealership. Once again, thanks for all the prayers.

Hi Tanner - I'm sorry I missed your original post, but I'm spending some time making up prayers for you and your wife. Hang in there.

[Michael_Js]

Thanks be to God...Keep in good health! And enjoy the Camaros!

Tanner,
We wil continue to keep you and Amy in our nightly prayers. Much love sent your way.

I'm sorry, Ive been forgetting to put my wifes name in here for the prayer lists. Her name is Amy Olson. Thanks again everyone for the prayers. Her second chemotherapy treatment is tomorrow.

I am sending love and prayers to you and your wife...you need the prayers as well, because believe me, it is very hard and takes an extreme emotional toll on the cancer patient and the family members that watch helplessly while their loved one suffers...I watched my mother and other relatives and friends suffer with cancer and I suffered right along with them...too many times, people forget about the caretaker and just focus on the patient, which is as it should be, however the caretaker needs our prayers to be strong for their loved one with cancer..............
So, that being said, I am praying for you and Amy...hang in there...there are a lot of people that care and prayer works in amazing ways...
