Prayer Needed

Hi everyone.  Since I have got engaged so many horrible things have happened to members of my family.  I am trying to enjoy planning my wedding, but I am finding it difficult.

My father had to go in for another biopsy a few weeks ago.  He got his results this past Wednesday and was told that he has prostate cancer (very early stages).  My father was caught by surprise because his last biospy results were clean.  The doctors told him that they were not going to treat him yet as they want him to undergo and MRI to see if the cancer is coming from somewhere else.  My mother is very troubled about my father not being treated.

We were scheduled to go tux shopping today and then out for lunch, but my father told me he was exhausted and did not want to offend my FI by skipping lunch since he extended the invitation.  Of course the FI understood.

My father told me he has slept the past few days away because he is still in shock over his test results.  I am worried about him.  He is physically and emotionally spent.

Would you all please pray for my father and my family?  We are anxious to see what the MRI results reveal and are worried.

I know that our God is an Awesome God, our Healer, Refuge and Comforter.  I know that His hand is upon my father.  Please pray that the MRI results do not detect cancer in any other part of his body.

Thank you all in advance for your prayers,
Carrie

    prayers sent.

    I know it is scary but keep faith.  Caught early prostate cancer has I think the best recovery rate of any cancers. (like in the 90% range) So his prognosis should be really good.   I know that logic and emotions are 2 very different things, but I find fact to be comforting sometimes. 
    Image and video hosting by TinyPic Love is like infinity: You can't have more or less infinity, and you can't compare two things to see if they're "equally infinite." Infinity just is, and that's the way I think love is, too.

    Thank you for your encouraging words.  I have heard that prostate cancer has the best recovery rate in the last few days. 

    Even though we have to wait until after Wednesday for his MRI results, the doctors did catch it in its early stages. Thank God for that.

    Ladies - thank you all for your prayers.  It means the word to me.
