Prayer For My Mother, Carol

Mom's Oral Chemo - 66 months remaining

Update: 6/19/13: Visit to the oncologist went well today.  He reiterated that she is at high risk to get cancer again.  Mom will have an MRI on her cysts on her pancreas and kidneys in October.  Will keep updates on any changes.  Thank you for your continued prayers for mom and family.
 
Background: My mother, Carol, has battled cancer most of her adult life. She has had a complete hysterectomy, her entire colon removed, and now has had a double, radical mastectomy.  Most recently, mom has also been diagnosed with Stage 3 kidney failure.  Mom is currently on an oral chemo and 30 other prescriptions.  We humbly thank you for your prayers for mom, our family, and the Lord's provision.

Hebrews 13:14 ~ For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 ~ For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

Colossians 3:1-3 ~ If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

2 Corinthians 12:10 ~ For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
