I'm asking for your prayers again. There's so much going on in my life right now. My grandmother was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer a week after I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I had a radioactive iodine ablation done in November, and my oncologist said I should be fine. But, my mind keeps telling me that they're going to find some cancer somewhere else... I'm just still scared. And, my grandmother isn't doing very well.

Also, my sister is causing a lot of problems for me and my family and problems between me and my parents. She's addicted to cocaine and hydrocodone. I'm worried about her, too.... and worried about the trouble she is causing... but, more worried about her addiction.

I feel so small and weak and scared. I'm trying to be strong... trying really hard. It seems like the minute I get past one hard thing another hard thing slaps me in the face.

Could any of you please say a prayer for me and my family? I need them right now, and I'd appreciate them so much. Thanks.

Jenn

Part of our winning over disease (read DIS-ease) is having faith that God allows all things to work for His big purpose. You know (I know you do) that fearing cancer feeds it. Begin to work on "faithing" -believing that God has healed your body of this thyroid cancer...and at the very least believing in the doctors who generally won't give a good prognosis if it's not viable.

Try not to take on the worries of the family members. Keep a good boundary between what their trials are and what your healthy choices are. It's understandable and quite human to be concerned, but worrying to the point of making yourself ill won't do anyone any good. Find a good line and draw it for your own best interest.

Thanking God for His healing daily is a good way to find the faith you need at this time.

((Jenn)))) its so hard for you now and you are digging in, finding strength, reaching out.. i know you know where strength comes from, from inside, from high above, from those around you in your trials times they are here, they are where you are, in your mind, in your memories, in places where you remember they were in the past... they have not left you all alone because memory will not let the truth leave you.. God is good and Great and strong and gentle.. all at once, and never leaves your side...
Thanks for this!

You have been through so much and life continues to throw curveballs at you. So often is the case in our lives.....it's hard I know.

I know for myself, when I look back on the times when I'm feeling small and weak, I've found that those are the times when I'm actually resting....rebuilding some strength to continue the battle. Sometimes we need these times for introspection.....and sometimes just to rest.

I'm sorry for all that is going on.....remember you are still healing from your physical ordeal....it will take time sweety, but you will get there hon....you will get there.

today is a day of sorrow and pain
still you never struggle in vain
the brighter day will arrive to shine its light on you
so believe in the future to see you through
in the meantime... lean on us dear one
holding hands during this long distance run
to lift each other up whenever we fall
feel the greatness in being small
we don't have money and we don't have fame
but we have ALL just the same
love will carry us on its soft steady wings
take us to the unknown... tomorrow brings
Thanks for this!
