update on my wife and still need prayers


a few weeks ago I asked for prayers for my wife who has central nervous system lymphoma (brain cancer). At the time she was in a skilled nursing facility to get physical and occupational therapy. She was there for about a week and then went back to the hospital for treatment( focused radiation and chemo). Two good things about being in the hospital are:
1. I get to see her every day for about 8 hours. I couldn't visit her at the skilled nursing facility.
2. The treatment seems to be working. She is regaining some motion and strength on her left side.
Only bad thing about the hospital is the 45 minute drive each way and she is not getting as much therapy as at the snf. The nurses, doctors, aides are great. She will finish the radiation treatments on Tuesday and then be discharged to a skilled nursing facility for therapy. I won't be able to visit her there but now that she is stronger I'm hoping the therapy will work. She has been away from home for over 5 weeks now. I am hoping she will be home for Christmas
so continued prayers are needed that the cancer has been knocked out and for her physicsl recovery. The prayers have been working thus far.
Thank you.
Phil

Sending prayers for you and your family. We are in the process of determinng what type of cancer my wife has. She went in for same day surgery to have her gall stones removed on 10-30-2020. Lost appetite, abnormal blood work indicated probably gall stones. Stones found via ultrasound. Recommended laparoscopic, found many adhesions & suspect cells that are definitely cancer. Inoperable & treatable but not curable. Undergoing more tests to determine best method of treatment, so I fully understand what you are going through and what you have gone through. We'll keep you in our prayers.
 
I'm praying for both of your wives. You know.... If yours are like mine.....id do anything for them. I picked a great wife too.
 
Prayers for the wives. Health problems are so terribly difficult. My child bride of 65 years has had Rhumatoid Arthritis for many, many years. Now is to the point where I have to help her get up, get into a wheel chair, get dressed, do anything and everything. I feel I may not be able to do all this for too much longer. I will do it as long as I possibly can.

She often asks if it too much for me, my answer, would you do it for me if it was reversed and she says of course. So that is my answer.

Kids are miles away and due to virus and other problems with health etc, see very little of them. Daughter says she is coming for Christmas regardless. Getting old is tough but when it hits the younger that is even worse.
 
The cancer battle is so very tough not only for the victim but also for the family. I pray she can be home for Christmas and can be completely cured for the future.
