My Grandmother :(
 
I didnt want to start a new thread but I figured if I just added to the last one it would never be viewed.

The tests came back negative on the cancer!!! It was numerous stomach ulcers on and around the lymphglands that mock the appearance of cancer.... however the blood tests that were run during that time came back worse than we had planned.

My grandmother has Cirrhosis of the Liver. There isnt much they will or can do at her age but just let it go pretty much :( It appears it could be pretty far advanced already. They are doing another biopsy next friday. The biggest prayer request out of this whole deal is she is on cumadin (sp) and in order to do this biopsy they have to take her off of it for 10 days prior to the test. This is not good as she has chronic clotting issues and they said she can throw a clot at the drop of a hat. Please please pray!



And honestly pray for me too.. I am tired and ready to literally throw up my hands and quit. I have lost everyone I was close to in the last year and now my grandmother... the dr told me it would probably just be a matter of months. I just dont understand at all anymore! Thanks in advance...

Don't give up! He wouldn't allow all of this if He didn't think you were strong enough. Remember the Master refines by fire. My dad passed almost 2 yrs ago. 60 years young, he also had Cirrhosis. Believe me when I say I understand what you are going thru. And even tho we can't see things the way He does the most important thing is to NEVER give up!

For what it's worth, I know how you feel. I lost my Pastor about 8 years ago, then I lost my dad about 7 years ago, then I lost my grandmother. I already lost my mother when I was 18.
I pray God will bring you through this. Don't give up. We may never truly understand all that happens, but God is still working in your life. I know it can be hard to see it when everything is happening. Brother Barnes went through something similar....Job did too. We don't know all the hows and whys but if we will just hold on God will bring us through.

Tina 08-28-2007 07:59 PM
Praying for you...and your grandmother especially...

AmazingGrace 08-29-2007 07:19 AM
Thank you all for the prayers for Grandma. She is trying to stay in high spirits thru this but its hard for everyone. She is not saved and that makes it harder knowing this... She said... I am southern baptist and thats all I need :(

Thanks for everything yall... On the way to the hospital with daughter she just got bit by a spider too... Its gonna be a wonderful day!!! Love you guys!

Tina 08-29-2007 08:08 AM
I'll be praying for your daughter too. Hope the bite isn't serious. Any idea what kind of spider?

Well they arent sure what kind it was because she also has a burn on that same finger so we couldnt tell... There was one small line coming from it and it originally appeared to be a recluse bite but then the burn got larger and larger (she burnt her finger with a hair straightening iron when she got bit..) yep oh the drama! So they gave her a tetnus shot to make sure but he is pretty sure it was a brown recluse as it reacted the exact same way as when she was bitten by one 4 yrs ago... I think we just caught this one in time whew!!! The burn is the whole length of her finger though so this should be a fun day. He gave her some burn cream and she has to go back in the morning before school to get it rechecked and then she should be fine.

Tina 08-29-2007 10:29 AM
Wow... hope everything turns out okay for your daughter. Sounds like it just wasn't her day. :(

My ship was tossed and driven,
By the wind and the angry sea,
But when left there alone and all hope was gone,
At midnight a Voice called to me.

Cho.
He said things will be better after while,
These clouds will lift and you will smile, you'll smile.
This long night will end and a new day begin,,
Things will be better after while.

When my Lord has tried me and proved me,
I am told I'll come forth as gold,
I'll not question His Plan for my life's in His Hand,
Each promise I'll have and I'll hold.

Things will be better after while.....

Sister, this too shall pass..!!

Praying for you!

Blessings,

Falla39

My fam will be praying for you.

In times of loss or need it helps us to remind each other that God is right there with us and understands.

Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble
