prayers

for Sharon

 

one of my close girl friends confirmed that she has a rare kind of bone cancer. She's been asking for help since February but no one listened until about four weeks ago, and then only because they thought it was lung cancer. It's not. It's in her hip and they suspect in her knees also. She has had test upon test and is now waiting for a specialist operation to do bone biopsies to determine more about the disease.

 

I don't know what to do, what is there I can do? Nothing. I am the conduit between her and our circle of friends who are spread across the country. She gets me to tell the other girls because I am the cancer t-shirt wearing girl amongst us. It's tough. I am going through a bunch of tests myself and haven't told my friends because how can I when they're already falling apart over our lovely friend with this rubbish partial diagnosis. So I'm telling you, and that's probably not fair of me, either.

 

But I do ask for your prayers for my lovely friend, that she gets a complete diagnosis and a treatment plan to help her. It doesn't matter what religion you are. It doesn't matter if you're agnositic or atheist. I just would ask that if you look at this shot and read these words, please say a prayer or send some love towards my friend because she needs all the help she can get at the moment.
