Pray for my brother please
 
I've posted before about my brother being diagnosed with malignant melanoma. After fighting it for a year, it is now been found that half of his liver has cancer in it and it's all in his bones and spine. He's at MD Andersens in Houston. Fixing to start treatment this weekend. H is chances are very slim. He's a wonderful honest guy who worked all his life and did very little but that, so that he could save his money for when he retired. A month after he retired his cancer was discovered. He has been praying to God to please at least give him a few good years to where he could enjoy the fruits of his many years of labor. Please remember him in your prayers..He's a good brother and a good person....sherryg

Dear Sherry,

I am so sorry that your brother is having to go through this and also that you, his wonderful sister, have to watch him go through all this. So hard!

My prayers for him and you also. May our Lord hold you all close to Himself and give you His peace.

Well, slim chances are not, I'm praying that he gets to sit in the sun on the beach, look far and wide from the mountain tops, and praise God for more years to enjoy his retirement. God bless you and your brother! Lots of love and God's peace to you today! ma

Sherry,

I'm so sorry that you have to watch your brother go through this. I also had malignant melanoma about 12 years ago. Fortunatly mine was caught JUST IN TIME and I only needed surgery. This is scary stuff. I haven't kept up with the research on this so I don't what his options are at this point. Hopefully MD Anderson has a plan that will give him many more years of quality life.

My best wishes to you and your brother.

Sherrie:

A slim chance, is still a chance! The liver can recover if a treatment works. When diagnosed stage 4 in Jan 04, my entire liver was covered in tumors, I was jaundiced, my skin was yellow, even the whites of my eyes were yellow.

Herceptin and chemo did it's work and I'm still here bugging the heck out of everybody, ha!

Here's hoping that his treatment works for him!!!

chrisy 10-18-2007 01:29 PM
