Prayer Request

[Kimmifunn]

I know the title of this thread may shock a lot of you, but I have a very close friend who really needs everyone's help.

One of my very best friends from NY, who is from Bham and went to Auburn, emailed me yesterday. Her 24 y/o sister has been diagnosed with cancer. Cancer in the sense that is untreatable and they are researching one treatment that can work for her, but is risky. She and my friend have both had grapefruit sized tumors removed from their bodies between now and the time they were in college.

Megan's family found out about this yesterday and came as a shock to us all as Megan and Brittany could NOT be closer.

I will post her email while I'm at work tomorrow and I have it on hand, but would appreciate those who do pray, to add Brittany Waldrep to their prayer list.

Megan, her sister that I am close to, is working to get Brittany added to all prayer lists that she can. This is what she told me I could do to help, so I wanted to do what I could.

Thank you- and I will post more information about her situation tomorrow.

I don't want to be Debbie downer, but I have to do what I can.

Kimmifun, I understand. One of my realtor's husbands was just diagnosed with small cell lung carcinoma which grows very fast and with treatment, he has about 16-24 months.

Also another of my realtor's live-in boyfriend who is also my ex husband (don't ask) just had a foot amputation.

Everyone, Please keep all of our loved ones in mind that they have the strength to make it through these tough times and that they make every moment their very best. In these days of insurance companies running our healthcare system, so much additional stress is added to the families. Makes you treasure every day and appreciate how lucky we are to not have these challenges right now. So sorry about your friends.

Kimmi,

Never would even consider for one second, that you are a downer to ask for something so heartfelt.

She and her family are definetly going to be in my thoughts and prayers! You're a sweet friend Kimmi.

Done and Done for both of you. Keeping all your loved one's in my thoughts and prayers.

I am sending some good vibes their way. Remember to post the email address later. Cancer sucks!

Oh sweetie, what heartbreaking news. Yes, we will send our prayers her way, of course we will.
