Please continue to pray for my cousin Jeremy and his family. The surgery on Wednesday was semi successful. They took out part of the largest tumor to relieve the pressure in his brain so he wouldn't have terrible headaches. However, the doctors also said that the cancer is throughout his brain. They have recommended some chemotherapy and radiation treatments for a few weeks and they hope that after a few months he might even be able to go back to work. But basically, they don't seem to be extending a lot of hope for him to beat this.
Pray for Jeremy as he sorts through this all, he's been on drugs all week because of pain, so I am sure he is having a hard time grasping and sorting through all of this. His wife, Beth, as she reels from the shock of it all that God would give her wisdom and comfort and hope and peace. My uncle and aunt as they themselves try to take in all this information and help Beth and help make the necessary decisions. And, of course, all my cousins and my grandparents. This has just been a huge shock to us all. Even I have found myself feeling drained and exhausted and I am not closely tied into the situation either physically or emotionally (comparatively speaking).
Pray especially for Andrea, she's the youngest of the five in that family (Jeremy is the oldest). Her husband is in the military and has been assigned to Korea for two years. She is supposed to be joining him in March. The other siblings have all been able to go to Jeremy and Beth, but she has not, so pray for her as it must be especially difficult not to be with the family right now and to think about having to leave so soon for Korea.
Thanks for all your prayers.
