This week has been so trying. I found out Thursday that my grandmother is dying. She's 86 and lived like the poster child for Prevention magazine. As long as I can remember, she lived to tell others about vitamins, all natural foods, using natural products - including toothpaste and soap! She's got cancer in her uterus, lymph nodes, adrenal glands, kidneys and liver. How can this be?
The same night, I found out my aunt on the other side of the family has been diagnosed with cancer this year and is on chemo shots for it. No one told me in all these months. I understand she wants to keep it a secret, but I want to know! I want time to pray for her. Time to talk with her, or write to her. Maybe even time to see her. I want time to ask God to heal her. Please, don't take that away by keeping it a secret if that happens to you.
I also heard 2 other relatives either have cancer, or are under a physician's care for pre-cancerous cells to be treated. This is crazy!
I lost an Uncle and an Aunt to cancer already, and they were both so young! Early 50s! That's only 10 years from now for me! What chance do I have? What's my mother got that I don't know about? What about my kids? So many questions...so many worries...and I'm 3000 miles away from them.
Please pray.
