Quick Update & Prayer Request - June 2, 2012

I just spoke with my dad and again this morning, we solicit prayer as the pain is still present and often a '10' on a 1-10 'pain scale'. The pain kept my mom in bed all day yesterday and is keeping her from eating. They have decided to head to the hospital to try to receive some relief and hopefully revise the 'plan of attack' pain management-wise.
My dad didn't ask for this...but I want to ask for prayer for his heart as well as his voice sounded weary this morning. The weekend isn't shaping into the weekend that any of us had hoped or planned...but in our heart of hearts we know that God is holding this weekend, my mom and this journey in the palms of His hands. Thank you for your continued prayers and support.
Today's Praises...
-For another day...one that is beautiful and sunny
-For my Dad's ability to be at my mom's side
-For faithful prayer partners lifting our family up...specifically and consistently
-For so many of your emails, phone calls and hugs which provide such encouragement and remind us that we aren't traveling this journey alone

Today's Prayers...
-For relief from the pain...and for consistent and through pain management
-For hearts not to be discouraged...that God would bind Satan out!
-That the pain wouldn't provide any setbacks in her treatment
-For a MIRACLE!!! That the chemo drugs would be going to work to kill every cancerous cell in her body and that the cancer would not spread
-That we might be able to 'escape' to the lake...even if it is just for a day
-That hearts might be filled with both hope and peace
-That God would continue to receive the glory
Thank you for continuing to rally...may each of your hearts and your weekends be blessed. We promise to send another update as we learn of answered prayer or more specific requests.
May your weekends be blessed...we promise to continue with the updates.
