DEAR LUCY,
MAY THE LOVE OF GOD STRENGHTHEN YOU AT THIS TIME OF NEED. HE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU AND I KNOW THAT HE LISTENS TO AND ANSWERS THE PRAYERS OF THE FAITHFUL.
THERE ARE SO MANY OF US ON HERE WHO ARE PRAYING FOR YOU AND HUBBY. DON'T DWELL ON WHAT HAS NOT HAPPENED AS YET, BELIEVE THAT THIS IS JUST A TRIAL TEST AND THAT HE WILL COME THROUGH THIS WITH FLYING COLOURS. THERE IS NO GOOD IN DWELLING ON THE UNKOWN ADN DON'T GET DEPRESSED. MEG'S RIGHT WHEN YOU DO THAT THE DEVIL SLIDES IN AND FILLS YOUR HEAD WITH HIS "STUFF".
I PRAY THAT YOU WILL HAVE RESTFUL, PEACEFUL, REFRESHING SLEEP - PRAY FOR HIM EVERYTIME YOU PUT YOUR HEAD ON YOUR PILLOW BEFORE YOU GO TO SLEEP - I DO MOST OF MY HARDEST PRAYING AT THAT TIME. I KNOW YOU ARE SCARED, I TOO WENT FROM MY PARENTS HOME STRAIGHT TO THE MARRIED HOME AND HAVE ALWAYS RELIED ON TREVOR FOR EVERYTHING.
I PRAY THAT YOU WILL FIND THE STRENGTH TO BE A "ROCK OF SALVATION" FOR HIM, JUST LET GO AND HAND OVER ALL YOUR WORRIES AND FEARS AND LAY IT AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS.
LOVE AND BLESSINGS TO YOU DEAR LUCY LOVE CHRIS
My heart is with you. Don't be too discouraged, there can be life after the "C" word. My husband was diagnosed in Sept. And, life is good again. I appreciate life so much more now. You have received some excellent words of counsel and comfort from CE friends. Draw close to your savior, and read and reread the words from CE, they will give you comfort.
Lucy, everyone else has said how I feel, but before you panic, wait to get the results of the tests. Some forms of lymphoma respond favorably to treatment. Get the facts and then start your fight. May God be with you.
Trust in God he knows what he is doing pray and trust .he will supply all your needs ask and belive and ye shall recive
I will be praying for you.

We will be praying for you both and your family. Believe that it will get better, put positive thoughts in your mind and chase the bad thoughts away so you don't have so much negative energy.
My brother had a horrible head injury, it took ten years to heal, very long time to suffer, but god brought him through it with faith and perseverance and prayers. You can do it!

PLEASE TRY AND BE STRONG FOR YOUR HUBBAND HE IS GOING TO NEED YOU MORE THEN EVERY NOW LOVE TO YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND AND YOU BOTH WILL BE IN MY PRAYS
Dear Lucy,
it's not the same to talk about something like this hard times you have now and to be in the midths of it.
Try to chnage you view from: the glass is half empty to the glass is stil half full! Believe me it's a big secret. In romans the bible says that everything - means everything!- is for the good if the children of God. Say this sometimes to yourself and o your husband. My favourite saying to myself is:
God comes latest at the right time.
I need this verse as my husband had heavy haert attack and was completly out of order for six monthes after the operation. But now I can say - it worked! Don't carry your beloved on your shoulders, carry him with your heart. If Jesus is in your heart - so he will carry him. Believe only with your mind firt by decision, you will see - it will go down to your heart which mean feelings. It's o.k. to be weak for a while and complain an feel fear and ask why - Jesus did the same before he went to the cross. But after a while - take a breath, do something what yo really like, may be embroidery?? may be sewing, phoning somone, going swimming whatever.
Be there for your husband but don't point your view too much on the desease - put it on the hope and view after a succesful treatment.
Anyway there is beeing a solution for you prepared in heaven right now.
I will pray for you both to stand on the rock of the hope and eternal love. As i read many of cuties do this - so the bible says if one or two agree to ask for something it will happen. Believe in that! Speak to God what he promised you.
I pray for a bi portion of strenght and courage.

P.S.: In that hard times I had, I started more to embroider. I pleased some friends with towels, pillows and so on. They started to ask me for buying that and give away for their friends - so I have a small income now - think about your skills! You have! All of us have skills. Also worth to pray for it.
Lucy, You have a large family here praying for you for strength and peace during this troubling time. Others have said very eloquently what I believe and know. Christ will sustain you (Philippians 4:13). Take heart dear one.
LUCY, MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU BOTH.
KEEP STRONG AND BELEIVE.
MEGANNE IS RIGHT IN EACH WORDS.
PRINT THE PHOTO OF THE ANGEL SHE GAVE YOU AND KEEP IT WITH YOU OR FIX IT SOMEWHERE YOU CAN SEE IT ALL THE TIME AND WHEN YOU FEEL DOWN, LOOK AT IT AND REMEMBER WHAT SHE SAID AND YOU WILL BE STRONG FOR YOUR HUSBAND.
WE ARE HERE FOR YOU,
LOVE
CATHIE

HUGS CLAUDE
YOU ARE NOT ALONE LUCY, YOU HAVE THE LORD AND ALL HIS ANGELS WATCHING OVER YOU, YOU HAVE EVERYONE HERE AT CUTE PRAYING MIGHTY PRAYERS FOR YOU.
GOD'S WILL, IS GOD'S WILL AND HE IS ASKING YOU TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND SHOW YOUR FAITH.
HE IS ASKING YOU TO SHOW THE INNER STRENGTH THAT IS IN ALL OF US.
YOU MUST NOT DWELL IN SELF PITY, FOR IF YOU DO, YOU ARE SURELY LETTING THE DEVIL DO HIS WORK THROUGH YOU AND YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS.
THROW A TANTRUM IF YOU MUST, BUT THEN GET OVER IT AND STAND UP AND FIGHT LIKE THE CHILD OF GOD THAT YOU ARE, FOR IF YOU COWER LIKE AN ANIMAL YOU WILL SURELY BE KICKED WHILE YOU ARE DOWN AND THE DEVIL WILL WIN.
I AM SENDING A SPECIAL ANGEL TO HELP YOU THROUGH THIS TIME, SHE WAS SENT TO ME MANY, MANY, YEARS AGO AS A SPECIAL GUARDIAN ANGEL, AND ALTHOUGH SOME PEOPLE USE HER UNWISELY, I HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED SHE IS VERY SPECIAL AND HAS ALWAYS TAKEN MY MESSAGES TO GOD THROUGH THE INNOCENCE OF A CHILD.
I WILL PRAY FOR YOUR HUSBAND, YOUR LIFE PARTNER, TO RECEIVE HEALING ENERGY AND TO STAY WITH YOU.
BUT YOU MUST ALSO "BELIEVE" AND BE STRONG BECAUSE YOU ARE "NOT" ALONE!
DEATH OF OUR LOVED ONES IS SOMETHING "NONE" OF US IS SPARED, IT IS PART OF LIFE AND WE MUST ACCEPT GOD'S WILL THAT HE HAS A PLACE FOR US IN HEAVEN.
A FAR BETTER PLACE, FREE OF PAIN AND SUFFERING, FREE OF HUNGER AND COLD, FREE OF BITTERNESS, CRUELTY AND WARS, FREE OF FEAR AND SORROW, GREED AND JEALOUSY, FREE OF ALL THE AFFLICTIONS THAT BEFALL US MERE MORTALS HERE ON EARTH.
I TRULY BELIEVE MY SOUL LIVES ON AND I AM NO LONGER AFRAID OF DYING, I AM NO LONGER AFRAID OF ANYTHING THAT WILL HAPPEN TO ME HERE ON EARTH BECAUSE I ACCEPT THAT GOD'S PLAN FOR ME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING I PLAN FOR MYSELF.
IT TOOK MY BATTLE WITH BREAST CANCER TO TEACH ME TO ACCEPT GOD'S WILL AND IT GAVE ME AN INNER PEACE I HAD NEVER KNOWN.
NOW I AM HERE TO HELP YOU BE STRONG AND REMEMBER, YOU TOO ARE A CHILD OF GOD, YOU MUST HAVE FAITH AS THIS IS HIS TEST OF YOUR FAITH.
DO NOT GIVE IN NOW LUCY, YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT!!
HUGS AND LOVE, MEGANNE
LOVE AND PRAYERS FOR YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND LUCY. WHEN YOU PRAY YOU CAN ASK GOD TO TAKE THE BURDEN OF WORRY FROM YOU, AND HANDLE IT ALL, HIMSELF.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both Lucy. Keep strong and Believe.
Lucy, I'll keep you and DH in prayers. There are a lot of wonderful Christian women on here who lifted me up in prayer recently, so I know they will do the same for you. Just know that no matter what happens, it is in God's hands. Draw strength from Him. Keep the faith and be faithful to Him. Blessings to you and your family. Terre
LUCY, YOU AND DH ARE BOTH IN MY PRAYERS. I PRAY FOR PEACE FOR BOTH OF YOU AND COMFORT AND HEALING, ALL FROM GOD. KEEP LOOKING UP AND GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH. HUGS, JUDY

I really don't know what to say other than beleive in God & what he wants for you. I have a cousin who has Lymphoma & has had it for about 10yrs. She does have to go for chemo at times but she is doing great and has the greatest attitude about it all. Please just beleive what is happening will all turn out the way God wants & for your best. You will be in my prayers Arlene
LUCY SO SORRY TO READ THIS. WILL ADD YOU BOTH TO MY PRAYER LIST. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF NOW, YOU NEED TO BE STRONG. HUGS YVONNE
Lucy, you and your sweet husband are in my prayers. My husband went through 3 years of tests before he was finally diagnosed with two rare, progressively debilitating diseases. I was scared, too, that I would lose him, and I, like you, went from my parents' home to my new married life home. With my DH's illness, we just have slowed our life way down, and we are learning to live in a different, less stressful pace. Remember, you may not know where all this is headed, but you can go there with God.
Keep us all posted as to your daily needs and what you find out. I just really feel that this will not be nearly as bad as you are feeling right now. Stay strong in your faith, dear one.
In Him,
Diane
Try to be strong, Lucy we are all thinking of you at this time.

It is so hard to face mortality, but remember you are not alone. You have so many of us praying for you and your husband. I am praying especially for strength and comfort for you. I wish I were there to give you a hug, but I can send you a BIG electonic HUG just for you.
Lucy dear - when things like this happen - they are generally for a reason - to make you stronger and for you to work on doing the things that you need to do - to be there for your dear husband and for yourself - as well - we will be praying for you - I know that you may not believe how much the power of prayer works - but believe me - it does - be strong and rest in the knowledge that God hears our prayers and he has something that he wants for you - at this time - trust in his will for you. I sure do.
LUCY I WRACK MY BRAIN FOR WORDS TO COMFORT & LIFT YOU UP. FIRST LET ME TELL YOU I HAVE A FRIEND WHO WAS DIAGNOSED WITH LYMPHOMA 25 YRS AGO. HE WAS MY PASTOR IN OKLAHOMA. HE HAS PROBLEMS FROM TIME TO TIME BUT GOES IN REMISSION & CONTINUES TO FUNCTION. I KNOW THIS IS VERY RARE BUT IT HAPPENS & I BELIEVE IT'S BECAUSE OF PRAYER. GOD IS STILL IN THE MIRACLE PERFORMING BUSINESS BUT YOU MUST TRUST & BELIEVE HE CAN DO IT. I KNOW THERE WILL BE MANY MANY PRAYERS GOING UP FOR YOU & YOUR BROTHER ASKING GOD'S WILL FOR YOUR LIVES. TELL HIM YOUR HEART'S DESIRES & LEAN ON HIM. GOD BLESS & KEEP YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND./LILLIAN
You and your husband will be in my thoughts and prayers
LUCY, SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY OTHER THAN I WILL PRAY FOR YOU AND HIM. WILL PRAY YOU CAN GET SOME PEACE DURING THIS TIME OF WAITING FOR RESULTS. IN CHRIST, JUDY *4U
