Lucas had brain surgery today, came thru it really good, but they say the type of brain cancer he has will just keep growing back and they are starting him on chemo.  They said they have never had any success with this type of cancer on a baby....  2 tumors grew within one week of taking out the first one, they say it will continue to do that and destroy his brain, he is not strong enough for radiation. They are trying to raise enough money to send him to children's hospital in South Carolina, they are having "suppers. car washes, anything to make the money to get him to hospital and pay the astronomical hospital bills they already have...  doctors don't have much hope. Please continue to pray for him..

Heavenly Father I lift up Buck Coomes to you in prayer. He needs a heart transplant and has to wait for at least a six months before he will be placed on the list. During the waiting period an effort will be made to raise $20,000 for medical expenses. They have to have enough money to pay the difference of the eighty percent covered by Medicare and the total cost of the surgery, plus two years of medication. Buck is fifty-three years old and has a medical history of Ischemic Cardiomyopathy and Hyperlipidemia. He has also undergone Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting twice, the first time in 1992 and again in 1996. He has had a total of ten heart attacks since he was thirty years old. He had stints inserted three times for a total of six, and the last time he had two heart attacks while he was in the hospital. The muscle in his heart is nearly destroyed, robbing him of energy. He is also in a large amount of pain. He has been disabled from his job as a mechanic for many years. He is on the Status Two list, which is one step away from Status One, whose members are usually hospitalized due to their condition. However, he had been on Status Three until just recently, when physicians told him to prepare for a heart transplant.  He meets the criteria for listing on the national waiting list, however, he must have at least $15,000 in a trust fund before he can receive a heart and is expected to need an additional $5,000 for medication expenses. He was placed on the waiting list for a heart under the United Network of Organ Sharing on May 21 as a Status Two urgency. He has been provided with a pager from Cellular One so he can be notified immediately when a heart becomes available. Buck says that the reason he is going through with the surgery is because he wants to see his two and a half year old grandson grow up. Lord I ask that you wrap Buck in your arms of love. I ask that you draw him close to you. I ask that you cover him with your healing power from above. I ask that you remove any pain and discomfort that he may be having. I ask that you provide for his financial needs to cover medical expenses and medication that he will be needing. I ask that you provide a heart so this grandfather can live to see his grandson grow into a man. I ask that you strengthen his weakened body and prepare him for the transplant. When the time comes for surgery, I ask that you guide the surgeons hands and bring him safely through, free from complications, completely healed. I ask that this new heart provide a long life for Buck as he has been through so much. I ask that he be a testimony to the doctors, medical staff, family, friends and strangers of your healing power and of the power of prayer.  I ask that you comfort him and his family as they wait to be called. If Buck has not accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior I ask that you send Christians in his path to share the GOOD NEWS OF CHRIST with him. I ask that you open his ears to hear, his eyes to see and his heart to feel your wonderful love. I pray for salvation. I ask that you comfort the donors loved ones in knowing that through this wonderful gift that a life has been saved. I ask that you keep forever fresh the memory of their loved one fresh within their hearts. I ask that the transplant be a complete success. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

The doctors have said that the brain tumor is inoperable, therefore I come before your Heavenly Throne on his behalf, believing that through you all things are possible and I ask for miraculous healing. I know that you can remove that tumor just as you gave sight to the blind, movement to the lame, hearing to the deaf, speech to the mute, delivered the demon possessed, raised the dead, healed the woman who bled for twelve years, healed leprosy and so many other miracles Lord done by your healing power, I ask that you bring this young man through, completely healed.

Update 6/22/02
I received this from Jennifer's dad about the possible cancer in her throat. Barb Hi Barb, Just wanted to let you know that Jen for the most part is doing okay right now. She is home from the hospital and sleeping. She went into the hospital at 8:00 A.M. this morning, and they didn't get her into surgery until about 9:20 A.M. They said she would be there for thirty or forty minutes, but she ended up being there about two hours longer. I think she got out at 11:30. The reason why it took so long is because her doctor saw a lot more that he didn't see from all of her tests. All her lymph nodes grew together, so it was very hard to get the right one out. He had to cut through some nerve endings, so the left side of her face will be numb for a while, but she should get all of the feeling back soon. There are still more in there, they will see her in again in few weeks. The doctor will call tomorrow to let us know if it is cancerous or not. They only gave her enough anesthetic for forty-five minutes, so she said she was awake and she can remember most of her surgery. She didn't feel anything because her nerves were cut. She only had seven stitches and a very small incision, therefore she shouldn't have to bad of a scar. She has to get a lot of sleep and she can't eat any solid foods until tomorrow. She can only drink juice. She is resting now, and has plans on attending my grandparents anniversary dinner tomorrow night, if her incision continues to bleed she won't be able to go. I'll let you know the results of the biopsy when we find out. Please thank everyone for praying for Jennifer, she really appreciates it. John Bibb and family.
Update 6/27/02
I just heard that Jennifer does not have cancer in her throat. Praise the Lord for answered prayers. The doctor did ask her Dad if she had ever been in an accident. John said yes years ago. The doctor started screaming at him that he should have told them this. That operating on her could have killed her. Why I have no idea, but I will find out. John said he had forgotten about the accident to even tell him that it was so long ago. Jennifer does have to see another doctor about the remaining lumps that stemmed from the one they took out. Thanks and much love Barb

Heavenly Father I lift up The Children of Samuel and Shirley Mitchem to you in prayer. On May 2, 2002, these children lost their parents in a stormy landslide, the landslide carried a large tree into the family's Blazer, crushing the top of the vehicle. The accident killed Shirley instantly, Samuel died from injuries a few days later at Charleston Area Medical Center. Bryan, Ashley and their twelve-year-old brother Eric Lee were in the vehicle with their parents when the real-life nightmare took place. The family was taking photos of the flooding devastation while delivering water to neighbors who received flood damage when their lives changed forever. It is said that the Mitchem family was inseparable, "If you saw one, you saw them all," their Aunt Betty said. They loved to pitch a tent, camp and fish together.

Heavenly Father I lift up Margaret to you in prayer. She is so distraught that she wishes to die. She says that she is all alone, losing her home and she has no relatives or friends to help out. She spoke with her Pastor and he told her she wouldn't be depressed if she had enough faith to trust in you, that you would take care of her. He told her that she shouldn't take communion at the church because of  her lack of faith and then he forgot about her. She has broken relationships with her children, parents and sister due to her mental illness, which she has tried to mend.

I pray for spiritual and physical healing. I ask that you comfort her husband and give him patience to deal with her problems in a loving manner. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Praise Report ... Update ... "Margaret Norman" ... Thank you "all" for the prayers that were said on Margaret's behalf ... and for the many prayers and encouraging letters that I know you personally sent to her... God Bless You, and please continue to remember her in prayer for God's strength and continued reassurance. Dear Rev. and Mrs. Hatmaker:  I want to thank you for all your caring and prayers. The sheriff you sent to help me had an ambulance bring me to the nearest hospital. He also called the firemen to come and start pumping water out of the house. Since I was admitted as suicidal, he probably wasn't able to tell you that. I have been in the hospital all week and was able to return home with the promise I would attend classes there from nine until two everyday until the doctor is convinced the depression medicine is working. I am also on antibiotics for respiratory and ear infections. I had all the pills here to kill myself Monday night when messages started coming from all over the world. I would be reading one and it would pop up that I had ten  new messages. Right now there are over 1000 e-mails on my computer which stopped receiving them Sunday because of an overload! I had no idea God had so many hi-tech angels to care for me. Even though I had a tape going through my mind that I had to kill myself, all the messages were keeping me alive by telling me not to do it. I received such awesome prayers! I don't know how to say thank you for sending help when you did. The electricity and phone were both out when the call came from the sheriff's office and from you that there was help coming. I was in shock in knowing how the phone could be repaired when the water was coming faster and faster. I hope I can talk to you again. I want to be able to have faith and pray like that! I don't know how to thank you for saving my life. I will be grateful to you forever.  Love, Margaret Norman

Heavenly Father I lift up Pastor Robert Wagner to you in prayer. He had a major heart attack this past Saturday and his condition is listed as serious. I do not know him personally, but it has been said that he is a very loving, caring, considerate, sensitive, wise and humble man, yet strong and devoted to you.

Update 6/17/02
We appreciate all the prayers for Pastor Bob.  Today there were some improvements, to the degree that they were able to take him off a couple of medications, and disconnect a temporary pace maker. They still have a heart pump connected and he's on a respirator, so they keep him heavily sedated.  His fever, which kept them from operating before now is continuing to come down slowly, and they are trying to decide about the procedures they will take.  One artery is totally blocked and calcified so the angioplasty was unsuccessful. Surgery on that particular artery and location is highly risky in and of itself, and requires that he be more stable before it is undertaken, and that is what they are waiting on. Lucy his wife, is holding up well, and Deedee (their daughter who also is a doctor) has been with her since Saturday morning.  Amy (the older daughter) has also spent several hours yesterday and today with them for the first time in years.  God is using this situation to bring some healing of relationships with Amy. Love, Jane
Update 6/21/02
GOD BLESS YOU! DEAR SAINTS!  I hope you are well. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERY PRAYER! You are being Answered, I think we've had miracles BUT PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THIS SWEET WONDERFUL ANOINTED PROPHETIC MAN OF GOD!!! Until he's out of the woods.  GOD SHOWER HIS LOVE AND BLESSINGS ON YOU AS NEVER BEFORE!!! I believe he will! In JESUS name and agape love always, your friend, David Beals
Today Bob is much more awake and answering questions by moving his head to indicate "yes" and "no."  The pacemaker was removed on Wednesday and hopefully the respirator will get to come off tomorrow. He is still on it because he was put back on heparin Wednesday to try to dissolve the thrombosis in a ventricle in the heart.
He continues to look so much better. Let's agree that God will dissolve that clot and l repair the muscles in his heart supernaturally, restoring his strength rapidly. They are not willing to move him until that clot is dealt with. Love, Jane
Update 6/21/02
Last Saturday morning Bob was taken to the hospital.  He suffered a massive heart attack two days before, but thought he was overheated from working out of doors, and had a secondary attack Saturday. He remains in the Intensive Care Unit where they are working to try to dissolve the clot in a ventricle, and to get his oxygen up to a normal level so they can remove the respirator, there is still too much fluid in his lungs, and they are also trying to identify an infection in his blood.  One smaller artery is totally blocked and calcified.  The tissues around it are dead.  The heart muscle itself received major damage.  In spite of all that, he daily shows improvements.  Although he didn't acknowledge or didn't recognize that he was having heart problems, there is evidence that he had problems at least six months ago. Lucy was able to explain what had happened to him yesterday, and assured him that the Lord has everything under control, and is looking after the both of them, and will take care of everything. It is quite evident the Lord has kept him alive through this, and we rejoice in that and the good things he will do through this and the testimonies to come. Jane

Heavenly Father I lift up Vicki's Mom to you in prayer. Vicki has just spent the past twenty-one hours at the hospital with her, due to a bad fall that she had at the nursing home she is in. This is a total of six falls she has had, two of them very serious. She has a lot of bruising in the facial area, one eye was swollen shut, the other she could only open half way, she has cuts and her cheek bones are swollen real bad.  By the morning hours she could open both eyes about half way and the bruises are a little lighter in color, they were almost completely black.

Thank you so very much Charlotte for your prayers for mom and also for my son Jake.  Mom is healing up well and she'll go back to the home tomorrow.  We've been taking eight hour shifts sitting with her so she won't have to be restrained and hurt herself and will continue when she goes back to the home.  I'm just plain wore out already but I guess God will give us all strength.  We gets Jake's tests results Tuesday and I will let you know what the doctor says.( prayer for Jake was placed on 4/11/02 ) God bless, Vicki

Update 11/9/02
Mom has taken a turn for the worse.  She has pneumonia now, a fever, very labored breathing and at times a pause in her breathing, and bed sores.  Hospice was called in two days ago to manage the pain.  She still hurts even if you barely touch her.  I wish for my mother to finally have peace and no pain. I am spending as much time with her as I can so I've not been online.  Please keep her in your prayers.  Thanks you so much.  Love, Vicki
Update 12/27/02
Hi Charlotte.  Hope you and yours had a very merry Christmas. Thought I would give you an update on my Mom.  She continues to deteriorate.  Hospice is managing the pain pretty well unless she has to be moved at all then she cries out and at times in her sleep too.  The bedsore on her bottom will never heal and neither will her broken shoulder bones.  Her frail little body just doesn't have the ability to heal.  Still, she lingers on.  I see her nearly every morning.   I put lotion on her, moisturizer on her face, foot cream on her feet and read the Bible and other books to her.  It's so hard to see her suffer this way needlessly.   I appreciate your prayers and support so very much.  We may never meet here on earth but we are still friends and can pray and uplift others.  God bless, Love, Vicki
Update 4/12/03
Hi everyone.  Most of you know that my Mom has been critically ill with severe Alzheimer's for over a year now.  Tonight the nurses talked to me about her.  Mom has signs of the end of life.  She has given up the fight.  They feel she can go any minute now.  It is in the Lord's hands.  I would ask you to keep Mom in your prayers that she go peacefully with no pain.
Thank you and God bless, Vicki
Update 5/25/2003
Good morning Charlotte.  I appreciate your continued prayers for Mom and I.  Mom has pneumonia again and was on oxygen for eight days. They took her off the oxygen and placed a feeding tube. She is still holding on. I see her nearly every day.  Please keep her in your prayers for peace.  God bless, Vick
 

Heavenly Father I lift up Reverend Steve to you in prayer. He has been having a lot of pain in his knees which led to him having to go to the Emergency Room.

Heavenly Father I lift up Don Patrick Pool to you in prayer. He was in the hospital and released last Friday. He was doing real good but had to be placed on a kidney machine. He had a set back and is now back in the hospital in serious condition, his heart is really bad, had to be shocked thirty-three times to bring him back.

Update 6/7/02
Sent to Dave Howe Dear Dave, I just want to thank you for your prayers and support, during the last few weeks, for Bob.  His illness was particularly nasty, developing finally into Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia.  The last few days were quite harrowing, probably worse for the family in a way, than for him.  As we all felt helpless in the natural, feeling that we could do nothing to ease his discomfort, but on Wednesday, June 5, the Lord took him to be with Him.  I am so glad that he gave his heart to The Lord, and I know that now that he is pain free, liberated and yes, probably dancing.  I feel quite envious in a way. Please show this letter to all the people who prayed for him, and tell them that their prayers were not in vain. HE IS HEALED NOW!  Thank them very much for me please. Bobby
Update 6/6/02
Bob Stone died last night - Bobey Stone thanks everybody who prayed for him - Bob has got his healing in heaven now she said. Thanks all. Dave Howe. Living waters fellowship Margate. Wellspring prophetic min England
