Title: Pneumonia and Cancer
Post by: Speramus on August 30, 2012, 10:07:18 PM
Please say a prayer for a good friend who is in the hospital with pneumonia and a high fever.  She was already weak from a year and a half of battling cancer.  Her fever is back up to where it was yesterday when she entered the hospital.  On the phone a few minutes ago she sounded worn out and in distress.

Remember, O most loving Virgin Mary,
that never was it known,
that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help, or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence,
though burdened by my sins,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To you I come, before you I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not our petitions, but in your mercy,
hear and answer us.
Amen.

Mother Mary, I commend Speramus' friend to you.  Please ask our Lord to give her strength and healing in accordance with His holy Will.  May she persevere in faith, and offer up her suffering.  Please ease her suffering when it becomes to much for her to bear.  Amen.

Thanks be to God, and to all who have prayed or cared for my dearest friend.  After difficult days, her fever has broken and she seems to be starting to recover.

Give praise to Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. [Psalm 117:1]

Thank you for your continued prayers.  On Monday, I was hopeful that my friend might be able to leave the hospital in a day or two, but her doctor has never been able to bring her fever down for more than a few hours at a time.  Now they are talking about medevacing her to the Mayo clinic.  They will get test results back tomorrow which may finally tell them what is causing her pneumonia.  After shrinking a little, the infection in her lungs has started to expand again.

Please pray that the test results will be helpful, the care-givers skillful, and that my friend may be cured.

Lord help her, please!

The doctors now have a diagnosis (Legionnaires' disease), and a new treatment plan.  Fluid that had been accumulating outside my friend's lungs has been reabsorbed by her body and her fever is down.  God willing, it will stay down this time.

Thank you for your prayers.  At two weeks post-discharge from the hospital, my friend appears to be safely past her crisis.  Recovery will take months -- she sleeps a lot these days -- but her high temperature is gone, she is eating again, and she even taught a little last week.

It's good to hear she's doing better! Prayers for her continued recovery and thanks be to God!

My friend did much better in the year and a half that followed her discharge from the hospital, but now she is unmistakably living her last days.  Please pray that she will endure in the Faith until the end, and not suffer greatly, and die peacefully, and rise joyfully. :crucifix:  Prayers for the daughter who is caring for her and all of her family would be appreciated, too.
