Prayers for friend

[goofywife]

All, we really need everyones prayers. I have mentioned before about one of my dear friends breast cancer coming back. It is a real struggle for her everyday. They had her on a type of chemo for a month, then checked to see if they were getting anywhere.

It did not work, infact her results came in 4 times worse. So, they changed her chemo meds. This medicine causes her skin to turn really dark, hair fall out, she gets sores in her mouth, and her hands and feet are very raw.

They ran a test after the first month on the meds, since she is having such a hard time with it. They are working. Her numbers went down. Not a lot, but they went down instead of up. So she is going to stay on them.

Her husband has been great by her side all this time. He had not been feeling well and they thought he had bronchitis and got run down. It turns out that he has cancer too! He has peritoneal mesothelioma . They see some spots on his lungs and are going to do a pet scan to see if its cancer too. If it is not then they will do surgery and try to remove as much of the cancer as possible (they will have to fo to MD Anderson in Houston). If it is then they will not do the surgery.

They are going to schedule the PET scan for this week. Please keep these dear friends of mine in your prayers.
