Arrow ~MichelleH~Update From 5/2/08

Please keep those prayers coming for MichelleH, I spoke with her husband last night and she is very ill. I would not be shocked if she is now in the hospital. She had only one treatment of chemo before getting even sicker than she was. Her bilirubin has skyrocketed out of control and keeps rising. Of course this means no more chemo, atleast for now, with the hopes of her liver healing. I will not get into too many more details right now, no need to, it is what it is and it's not too good.

Her liver is so sick friends and although we all love her, my heart is extremely sickened from this news. I cannot stop praying nor crying for this very special friend and her family....her two very young children....all of us whom love her.

We have our gardens growing with special flowers and plants sprouting all over the world with gracious thoughts of her. We have her in our thoughts and prayers. We all are concerned for her well-being, yet we are helpless. I try not to waste alot of time 'hating this disease' or anything in life, it is a word I try not to validate. BUT I DO...I HATE IT! There, I said it!

I am prepared to get on a plane to vistit her if I get the word. Praying for her is a given for me. My prayers for myself (usually do not pray for me) is that I do not have to get on a plane to see her under these conditions. My prayers for me are to surprise her on our birthday. If there is room in your busy lives, please pray that I get to meet this Angel on the day we were both born and that I have the strength to be the friend Michelle needs. I am sorry if this may sound selfish, this is not about me and the last thing I am is selfish. I just love her so much and I do not know how I will muster the strength to hold back these tears in front of her.

Sending Prayers, Love and Healing Thoughts To You All>>Believe51

Dear Lord,

I ask boldly that you would grant a healing to our sweet Michelle. Please hold her and her family close to you. Please give them the comfort and peace that only you can bring. Through you all things are possible.

In your holy name I pray.

Thanks Marie.
Sometimes the news about our sweet sisters is too much to bear. Michelle and the others who are in peril today have stolen my heart and mind and have my prayers. I feel so helpless today. A most grateful thank you to those of you who reach across so many miles to check on them and bring us the news to allow us to know and pray and believe for them. God, we need lots of miracles today! Please send your angels to dwell where they are needed most. ma

Much sadness in our "family" lately. All of us will continue to stand together and pray and support one another through this "journey."

Thank God for all of our her2 family who loves and cares for each other so deeply. It is a blessing.

My prayers for Michelle to make her strong and give her strength to fight
this. Also prayers to comfort her and this is so sad. This indeed is a bad
week.
