PRAY- the best way to HELP LISA FIGHT is PRAY

Psalm 30:2

O LORD my God, I called to you for help and you healed me.



We are asking you to pray for Lisa, lift her up to our GOD so that He will hear His people ask for her healing. God's will is divine and we pray for His peace over Lisa and her family.

Please Keep Praying For Me

I took Lisa to Springfield last Thursday for new chemo treatment. She had been very sick for a couple of days after having her stomach tapped on the previous Monday. They took off little more than 2 liters of fluid. When we arrived at clinic, had to get a wheelchair to get her in because she was so weak. They called doctor in to look at her, and she immediately admitted us to the Mercy Hospital in Springfield. Very hard for her to be back there, as it had been 18 months since we were there. They started fluids and tried to manage her pain, so lots of meds. She was some better Friday morning, so they ordered chemo treatment with a new drug that had been added by her Mayo doctor. We finally left the hospital Friday late afternoon and brought her back home. She was still pretty sick Saturday, and then Sunday night, really hit a low. Sunday was a very hard day for her. She ran fever of 101 and went a couple of days without sleep, no matter how many drugs she took. She hasn't eaten much for a week or so. I tried to care for her all day Sunday, and finally called my friend who is a nurse, and she came over and helped me care for her. She said she wanted her dad to make posters again with the healing scriptures on them, so he made a late run to get the posters and made them for her. She is to have the chemo each week, and I am waiting on a call at the present from her doctor to see if they think she should go ahead and take the shot for the white blood cells or not. Doctor told us to do two shots this time before chemo Thursday, but I am not sure her body can do it. I just ask all of you that have been such faithful prayer warriors to please continue to hold her up in prayer. Also please pray for wisdom for the doctor to know how to treat her. She has fluid again and they wanted to drain it again when we were in the hospital, but she couldn't do it. She has a new 3.8 cm tumor on lining of tummy and CA-19 was back up to 4221.
