As many of you know, Ruth (Hoot Owl) has had more
than her share of health issues over the past few years.
I just spoke with her a few minutes ago, and she asked me to
share her latest situation with all of you and ask for your prayers.


This is what she shared with me...

"I found a mass in my neck at the beginning of the week, went
to the doctors on Thursday, he sent me right away for a
biopsy on Friday, they tried to biopsy it, but I developed
a hematoma and they had to stop, now I'll need to go for
additional tests. The doctor feels it's a lymph node...he
mentioned Lymphoma.Needless to say, I'm a bit frightened."


Ruth's family has a prayer chain going right now, and she would
very much appreciate the prayers of her Passions family as well.

Please keep Ruth and her family in your thoughts and prayers
during this stressful time, and let's pray for her quick healing.


Prayers sent, Ruth...

Miracles can come in the form of enlarging our needs, and minimizing our fears.  May the Lord minimize the fears within by allowing you to get the best treatment possible, and that all current medical treatments will take care of you rapidly.  Ruth, if you would like, please, please e-mail me.  I may have some information that you could take advantage of, and I would be glad to share that with you.  

You are in my prayers, Ruth.

Everyone...thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I'm scheduled for a CT Scan tomorrow morning at 7:30 AM. The pathologist, although unable to complete the biopsy, felt that aside from the mass there was also a "fullness" to the entire left side of my neck. His suggestion to my doctor, until the hematoma resolves and they can again try to biopsy, was to do a CT Scan as soon as possible. Perhaps I'll know more soon, until then I'm finding out that a little knowledge is not a good thing
Please continue to hold me in your prayers.
Hugs
Ruth

Thanks for the update Ruth.
Of course we will continue to hold you in our prayers...
I can guarantee you countless prayers will be
winging their way skyward at the time of your CT Scan tomorrow.

Ruth has had a long day - She had her tests - but has no discernable results - She'll likely have to wait another week for another round of tests before she knows anything more...

Think positive, Ruth - Love ya...
