I just received word from QE's wife that his Father has been diagnosed with two brain tumors and a lung tumor. I ask your prayers for him and for his family in their time of trial, please.
 
My sincerest apologies to everyone here for my delay in thanking you all for your thoughts and prayers.

And a special thanks to my very dear friend Hugh for his prayer call.



My father has returned home from the hospital after receiving eight doses of radiation to shrink the tumors in his head. Thanks to God and to some terrific care providers from the VA hospital in Charleston, my father’s mental faculties have returned to normal as, initially, he was disoriented, confused, and could not walk, speak, hear, or see, properly. He has since begun chemo treatments to stop the growth and/or spread of the tumor in his lung. So far, other than some relatively minor side-effects from the various meds he is taking, he has had very few ill effects from the chemotherapy. Emotionally, too, he is doing extremely well. My father is not a religious man and does not believe in an afterlife and, therefore, has no great fear of death. He has expressed a reasonable fear of pain and also a rather selfless concern for the people he has spent his life caring for and whom he will soon leave behind.

Thanks to your prayers, God has given my father, myself and my family a few more precious days to enjoy the lives we share with one another. I am eternally grateful to you all and I pray that my blessings become your own.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My mom was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year and she has finished her chemo sessions (now doing radiotherapy). I know what you are going through. The best thing to do is be supportive and don't let your dad give up. By the way you are describing him, i doubt he's that sort of person. Whatever it is spend as much time with him as possible (unless he gets fed up with you):) .

Positive thoughts sent your way.
 
Consider it done!!! My heart goes out to QE, his Dad, and the rest of his family.
 
As I said before, I and the rest of the Langley Hill Monthly Meeting continue to hold QE and his family in the Light.

Hugh
