I am ...Monica, <BR/><BR/>Somehow I missed this post earlier. I am so very, very sorry that you and your family are going through this. My heart breaks so deeply for you. I will be praying for your dad and your family that you will experience our Lord's amazing peace and comfort. I will also pray Philippians 2:27 over your dad:<BR/><BR/>"For indeed he was sick to the point of death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only but also on me (you), so that I (you) would not have sorrow upon sorrow."<BR/><BR/>My sweet dad passed away just over a year ago. He had stage 4 brain cancer. However, he lived much longer than his first doctor said he would. He gave him less than 6 months and he lived 4 years, fighting the cancer the entire time (he ended up transfering his treatment to a brain cancer specialist, a neuro-oncologist, up in Denver. Something he wished he had done at the beginning, as he was just treated by a general oncologist here in the Springs). <BR/><BR/>I can imagine that what you are going through is so hard. I'm so glad that you are able to spend a few weeks in Colorado! What a blessing that will be to you and your dad (not to mention your dear mom and your sweet littles!) <BR/><BR/>I would love to help your family (and you) in whatever way I can. Meals, babysitting while you're in town if needed, whatever you all need. We had some wonderful ladies who came up along side our family while my dad was sick and I would love to be able to do that for others as well.<BR/><BR/>Again, you are in my prayers! I'm writing your dad in my prayer journal so that I will be reminded to pray for him every day! May God bless your time in Colorado!<BR/><BR/>Email me if you need anything at all Monica! tara_davis20@hotmail.comTarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17441672685643394580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-29392020379668815332008-12-01T12:43:00.000-05:002008-12-01T12:43:00.000-05:00Monica,I am just an occasional viewer of your site...Monica,<BR/><BR/>I am just an occasional viewer of your site, and I hope that you have time to read this!!!<BR/><BR/>If it hasn't already been suggested to you, CALL THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY!!!

The cancer list is long at our church and we are a very young church of 1 1/2 years and only 35 members. It is a very scary word.

My dad had lung cancer and beat it, although he passed away last year due to his heart giving out (the smoking had damaged it, not the cancer). He did beat the cancer. They have so much better treatment now days.<BR/><BR/>My brother has terminal cancer, and he is very upbeat too, for the most part. He's a fighter I guess. I am sharing this not to depress you but to let you know that there are lots of us who have family members facing this, so you're not alone.<BR/><BR/>It is o.k. to feel shock and overwhelmed at first. It's not something you want to have to deal with. It is especially hard when our parents get sick, because they are who WE depend on (next to God and husbands). They are not supposed to get sick, right? <BR/><BR/>But God is always there to walk with you and give you His strength. I will pray for your dad and for all of you.momsthewordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14519343990735608713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-12168373161959885132008-11-28T08:48:00.000-05:002008-11-28T08:48:00.000-05:00Praying for you guys!!!Praying for you guys!!!Adeliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249175658844761354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-21216720715524631052008-11-28T06:54:00.000-05:002008-11-28T06:54:00.000-05:00I am so sorry I didn't see this before Monica!!!

I will be praying for your dad and your whole family. I pray he can beat this cancer and it ends up making you all stronger! <BR/><BR/>It is so impressive and encouraging to hear your dad has such a positive attitude about it though! Joy and cheerfulness through times of trials are such a wonderful witness to those around him.

I admire you. I am encouraged and inspired each and every time I visit here. Being a mother of 4, ages 11 down to age 2.5, we homeschool and we love the Lord and follow His ways as best we can daily, along with you and others.<BR/><BR/>I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's cancer diagnosis. I don't have much to say except that I will pray for you and your family. You have given me so much by way of your heart here, it's the least I can do for you. May the Giver of All Good Things be with you tonight and tomorrow and each day following until He returns to take us home.<BR/><BR/>Be blessed today.

I am 24 years old and I was diagnosed with Hogkins Stage 3A. Even though my cancer can be cured, it was a scare road. I have had to take Chemo and although I have not lost all of my hair, I have very little. We took our concerns to the Lord and I can now say that I have been healed. I had three locations of cancer, one is gone and the other two are there but they are non-active. Belive that God can heal!!
