It has now been confirmed that the bone marrow biopsy will be done this afternoon .

Considering that Raymond has never been ill [ other than a dose of shingles about 45 years ago ] in his life, all this has been a really frightening experience.This biopsy this afternoon will be the biggest thing that has ever happened to him , and so much does depend on the results.

We are so grateful for your support.

O Lord Jesus Christ our God, You patiently endured the scourging and wounding of your sacred body, that You may save the souls and bodies of your people. Look now graciously on the suffering body of your servant Raymond, and give him the strength to patiently bear whatever awaits him. Bless the people and all the means which will be used to restore him to health; and grant that he may accept his bodily sufferings as a means of reparation for the salvation of his soul. For You, O Christ our God and Savior, are merciful; and we give glory to You, together with Your eternal Father, and Your all-holy and life-giving Spirit, now and ever, and forever. Amen.

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.

UPDATE

The diagnosis is now confirmed as Acute Myeloid Leukamia and the severity is that without treatment he would survive for about 4-6 weeks !!

Very aggressive treatment will start next week - he is at home till then . He will not be considered for a bone marrow transplant.

Life has suddenly become much harder

My prayers continue for both Raymond and you.
