I have just returned from the hospital where he has been admitted this evening.

The preliminary diagnosis is Leukemia - all the blood tests indicate this.

He will be seen by the consultant tomorrow morning and further investigations started to confirm the diagnosis, and type of leukemia and plan treatment.

This has been a bombshell tonight

Please would you keep him in your prayers.

Prayers for Raymond and his health, and prayers for you that you can endure this trial.

Heavenly Father, physician of our souls and bodies, Who have sent Your only-begotten Son and our Lord Jesus Christ to heal every sickness and infirmity, visit and heal also Your servant Raymond from all physical and spiritual ailments through the grace of Your Christ. Grant him patience in this sickness, strength of body and spirit, and recovery of health. Lord, You have taught us through Your word to pray for each other that we may be healed. I pray, heal Your servant Raymond and grant to him the gift of complete health. For You are the source of healing and to You I give glory, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

And for Anhelyna
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Anhelyna,

You and your husband are in my prayers.

O Lord Jesus Christ, through the prayers of St. Nectarios, St. John of San Francisco, and the Most Pure Mother of God, have mercy on Raymond, and grant him health and salvation.

Update

I am bringing Raymond home this afternoon for about 3 hours and then taking him to the Haematology Unit in another Hospital after that.

He has had a blood transfusion overnight , which should help a bit.

The Investigations, probably starting with bone marrow biopsy, start tomorrow.

Thank you all so much for the prayers.

Prayers for the health and well-being of Raymond and for my dear sister, Anhelynha, to be comforted and strengthened as they deal with this crisis.
