My closest Aunty, my Mum's best friend, is dying of cancer. She has been affected by Cancer for the last 15years, but its only in the past 2 that she has started to go down hill.
Yesterday Mum got called from the residential home she is living in, she had a urinary infection and wasnt good. Today she has gotten dramatically worse. The Dr came to see her and she now has a very itchy rash developing which the Dr is certain is a type of skin cancer....her body is riddled with it already. She also has a lump developing which the Dr said was a tumour.
The outlook is very grim. He told my Mum to call her daughter and tell her to pack her bags, so now Julie is leaving her family back in Australia to be with her Mum. My Mum has been the strength for my Aunty all through this with Julie living overseas. It will hit her very hard when Aunty Jessie finally does die.
There is a very high likelihood that she will not survive till Christmas day....if she does she wont be coherant. Aunty Jessie is a staunch athiest.....please pray, that somehow, between now and when she goes, that the Lord would get through to her. Please also pray for my Mum, cousin and the rest of our family as we face the possibility that for the first time ever, we wont have our favourite Aunty with us for Christmas. Please also pray for the peace of God to surround my Mum, Dad, sister, brother-n-law, nephew and I....it is so hard right now, I need God's strength!
Thank you and God bless you
