GLORY TO JESUS CHRIST!

In your charity, please remember one of my co-workers, Michelle Arnold, in your prayers.

She was diagnosed with cancer in her ovaries, rectum and a growth on her liver.

She is only 38 and has 3 boys ages 12, 9 & 7.

She had a polyp removed on 10/27 and there was nothing there and these masses have appeared since then.

Michelle starts her chemo & radiation today.

She is the 2nd person from her unit to find out she has cancer. The other person has terminal pancreatic cancer and is not expected to see the New Year.

Blessings to you all!

Prayers for Michelle, that the therapy may be efficacious for her, that the side effects be minimal, and that God grant her many years in the loving arms of her family. Prayers also for her family as they support her during these times.

Prayers also for Mark's other co-worker, that he or she is comforted by belief in God during the trials and physical discomfort by which he or she is being assailed.

May the power of the Ressurected Lord fall upon her and heal her. May she stand strait and proclaim his healing to the world. For her family that they may be strengtened and guided by God's holy angels.

For the people in that work unit Lord, grant to them the grace of prayer and perseverence. That they may see your miracles standing before them because of their prayers. May they be at peace.

In your charity, please keep my friend Michelle and her family in your prayers.

We found out on Friday that they can no longer give her any more chemo or radiation and the cancer is still moving throughout her system.

She started to hemorrage on Friday morning.

The doctors suggest just making her comfortable.

She is refusing to go into the hospital saying she wants to die at home.

We don't know how this is going to affect her children....

Thanks for your prayers....

wish you all a blessed and easy Great Fast...

mark

ps
I'm remembering all of you as I write pysanky this season....

Renewed prayers for Michelle, that when the time comes, she reposes in peace and that, in the meanwhile, she be without pain or suffering.

Prayers also for her family that the Holy Theotokos offer her mantle of love and protection to Michelle's children especially and help them to understand and deal with the pain that is happening to them.
