Sorry this is late coming things have been crazy. Mom got her biopsy results a week ago friday and there is no cancer Praise God! The Dr. is still concerned with the abnormal cells they found and the pain and other symptoms she has been having though so he is still recommending a hysterectomy. They also did some other tests and found out she has a dropped bladder so when they do they hysterectomy they are also going to fix that.
As you can imagine Mom is very nervous about the thought of surgery and them taking “her parts” so please continue to pray for comfort and peace for her. Please pray also for financial support as she will be out of work for at least 6 weeks without pay. Dad has been picking up some more hours at work to try and cover this but he will not be able to make it all up.
Her surgery is scheduled for Jan 9th and she will have to go in for pre OP stuff on the 7th. She will be in the hospital for 2-3 days, then on strict restrictions for at least 2 weeks and not expected to be fully recovered for at least 6 weeks. Dad and I are both going to take a week off of work so one of us will always be with her during those first 2 weeks, and I will be taking on all the household chores like cooking and cleaning and laundry for at least 6 weeks. Please pray for me as I will be stressed and trying to do all this stuff myself while taking care of her and working full time.
We all greatly appreciate the prays and support we have already received and ask for continued support and prayer.

Hi,
I am so sorry to see a person go through any medical problems. I say this as I have had a long history of medical problems since the age of 17, and now looking for a kidney donor for my wife. Take a look at the full story if you have the time http://www.givinglifeisprecious.com
We will keep you Mother in our prayers each and every day.
May the good Lord look over you and your family forever,
Michael

Tasha, I know your mom will pull through this just fine. She is such a strong woman!
We’ll continue to pray. Please let me know if and how I can be a support to your family during those days that your mom is recovering.
