Laura (Normal, IL) UPDATE: Laura made it through surgery and the tumor was found to be benign. She is still in treatment for the leukemia; however she is doing much better. Praise God!
Linda (Elmhurst, IL) UPDATE: Please continue to keep Linda in your prayers. Her trip to Boston was not a successful one, and she is not able to have surgery. Pray for her as she continues with her chemo treatments.
Salem Lutheran Church Confirmation Class (Sycamore, IL) For the Confirmation Class of Salem Lutheran Church to gather Care Package items to donate to the organization that are exactly what is needed for the requests received here for the Nov 8th pick up. That the group and those involved will be blessed as they gather materials to provide for the needy as our Savior commands.
Dave & Peg (Roselle, IL) Continue to keep Dave and Peg in your prayers as she faces new challenges at work, and he continues with his fight. There are several small tumors in his lungs, new large tumors on his liver, new large tumor in the colon area, a large tumor in the muscle wall of his back on the right side and a new tumor on his kidney. This was not good news as you can guess, especially since the last scan after starting Chemo was so positive with everything significantly shrinking. On the positive side, the brain looks stable with no new growth and some shrinkage of the larger tumor.
Laura (Normal, IL) Please keep her in your prayers as she faces surgery on Tues Aug. 4th. Her cancer returned last year after 20 yrs in remission from leukemia, and they have found a tumor in her brain recently. She has 2 children, Buddy is going into 8th grade, and Belle is going into 3rd grade.
