My brother is very ill again. Last November he was diagnosed with a cancerous lymphoma beside his esophagus. Thank you to all the dear friends who prayed for him last year.<BR>The chemotherapy took care of that tumor.<BR>Now he has a spot on his kidney, one on his stomach, and the cancer is in his bone marrow. <BR>He is only 35 years old. He has two sons, 3 and 5 years old. They need their daddy. He is such a wonderful daddy. <BR>Please help me pray for him. He needs all the prayers we have.<BR>He will be taking intensive chemotherapy for the next two weeks, then they are moving him away from his family to another city for bone marrow treatment. If that doesn't work there is a slight possibility that I may be able to be a marrow donor.<BR>The prayers of this forum are so powerful.<P>

Your brother and his family are in my thoughts and prayers.<P>The time away from his family while he is waiting for a bone marrow will be difficult for all. I am so sorry that they have to face this all again. <P>

Add my prayers to the ones already going up. I hope that your brother is healed. I know it's hard, but you're a strong person...have to be, with what all you've already been through. You have us to lean on.

Lori, Robert and Kathi<BR>Thank you! <BR>What a powerful place this is. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>No real news yet. I guess there won't really be any for a couple of weeks. If the chemo doesn't shrink the tumors the doctors say that is all they can do.
