Prayers for 6yr old twin with cancer
« on: June 01, 2006, 08:55:04 AM »
I've seen so many requests for prayers on here, I was hoping I would never have a need to ask for help but the time has come.... 

My 6yr old niece was diagnosed with a brain tumor 18 months ago.  They caught it early, before it spread, had surgery to remove it and she's had chemo and radiation since then.  She was scheduled to have her very last chemo treatment this coming weekend to be declared in remision and be on the road to recovery.  She's very frail and of course has lost all her hair, we were looking forward to her becoming a normal little girl again.  Well, last week she started getting Vertigo (dizziness) and her eyes were "flipping".  The Dr's thought it was the medicine so they scaled it back, but it didn't go away.  Yesterday they discovered swelling in her meninges (sp? the lining of the brain) and it can be one of two things - possible meningitis which is treatable or (God forbid) a return of her cancer to the meninges of the brain.  They took fluid from her spine yesterday and we are awaiting the results this morning.

Please, please, please pray for this little girl.  Her name is Abigail Futterman, she lives in Maryville, TN.....and she has an identical twin named Kitra.  If anything were to happen to Abi, it would devistate her twin.  My family is just torn to pieces about this because she was so close to being done.  I appreciate all prayers and I will keep you posted when I hear the results.  Thank you all.   <(' ')> <(' ')>
Life is not a journey to the grave w/ the intention of arriving safely in a pretty & well preserved body..but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming --WOW!  WHAT A RIDE!!

Father God your word reminds us that you will never put more before us than we can handle. I come in agreement with your word and ask that you give this family the strength they need. You are stronger than any two edged sword and we know that cancer is not of you. I pray for complete healing in this child today. That cancer does not have to be accepted and can't win. You are the I AM, your word says that you are are our healer and deliverer. For every test result to be positive and beyond what is expected. Thank you in advance for what you are doing and what you are going to do in this situation. For rest and comfort in the child during these treatments. We know that miracles still happen. No doubt, help this family leave this in your hands today and look unto you for the answers they are searching for now. amen

Many prayers to the Family and child.

Let us be reminded of what Captain John Parker told his army at Lexington Green, the place where the War for Independence began in 1775. He said, “Stand your ground. Don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.
