Prayer Request

I visited my ailing aunt this weekend for her 79th birthday and she is not doing
well. As she finishes up her radiation today she is scheduling biopsies on the multiple
exterior tumors she has, there are at least 12 and some are weeping wounds. Most the size of golf
balls but some as big as tennis balls. God only knows how many internal tumors she has.

Because the tumors are on her back she is in constant pain, and she is weak and
frail, all of which is hard to see. She doesn't want to eat and many foods cause pain and
discomfort.

I pray that she is comfortable, that her pain should be gone, whether that means
joining her parents in heaven or finding the right combination of treatments so that she can
live longer. Please join me in praying for my aunt.
Thank you,
Katie
