Prayer

My mom got online tonight and gave me some really bad news. Just before I had left for Missouri, a really good friend of hers, Linda, had been dianosed with Lung Cancer. I knew that. My mom spoke with her today, and found out that they think she also hase brain cancer, and they will know in the morning. Not good. This is a portion of the conversation we had tonight.

wohtis: i am so jumbled right now
PrincessBeckwith: mom, im sorry
wohtis: i have been praying but it seems the prayers are not being answered in my will
PrincessBeckwith: do you want me to call?
wohtis: no
wohtis: talking is not what i need right now
PrincessBeckwith: okay,,,,,,
wohtis: if i was a drinking person i would go get drunk
PrincessBeckwith: faith is a very hard thing to have in rought times
wohtis: i'm sorry to get you upset, i was checking my e-mail to see if denise had mailed yet
PrincessBeckwith: no mom, it's okay
PrincessBeckwith: really
PrincessBeckwith: and i'm glad you let me know.
wohtis: i saw you on so thought i would ask you to remember her in prayer
wohtis: i'm gonna go for now
PrincessBeckwith: i will send out an email to my praying friends,,,,k?
wohtis: maybe a shower will help
wohtis: k
PrincessBeckwith: okay mom- you take care, and stay faithful in your prayers
PrincessBeckwith: i love you
wohtis: i wish i was not home alone
wohtis: i love you too
wohtis: i guess i should have gone to church
PrincessBeckwith: it's not too late to go

A that moment, I wished that I was in NY. I wishes that I could wake up and be there. To hug my mom. To hold her. Just to be there.

Cancer is never been an easy thing to deal with. My immediate family has been through it enought to last a lifetime....but it never gets easier.

For those of you praying....please....remember Linda and her family....and my mom.

Prayerfully,
a sad Bek
