Thread: My Wife Has Leukemia

  1. #1

    My Wife Has Leukemia

    We just found out today (December 23) that my wife has been diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). She's been struggling with back pain and anemia for a long time now, but nothing ever showed up on any bloodwork. Her platelets were dangerously low (at an 8...anything below 10 is critical and risks spontaneous internal bleeding).

    We don't know much else right now other than life sucks. I have to tell our two kids that mommy won't be here for Christmas and I don't know what to say. Some of you have seen our little family on my wife's youtube channel that I posted here... I don't know what to do. I can't lose my wife. Some Christmas, huh. I am told she will be starting radiation and chemo immediately.

    She is 37, and she already beat late stage papillary thyroid cancer 11 years ago right when I got back from my second tour in Iraq... she went literally through hell, massive neck surgeries and radiation, to beat that and we thought we were done with this crap... to get this news now, two days before Christmas, is too much for us.

    Send us whatever prayers you have. We need everything.

    Wish I would have bought a few hundred Bitcoins in 2011 so I wouldn't have to worry about paying the massive bills that are about to drop in my lap...

    Sorry I just needed to vent and you all listen when I need it.

    Keep us in your thoughts. I will update when I can.

    Prayers to you and your wife. My wife is an internal medicine doctor and I'll tell you that they can obtain good results using chemo and radiation. Find a good oncologist and just trust them. I know many give modern medicine a bad rap but really, there's nothing "alternative" that does better and in many cases you waste precious time trying them.

    Prayers for you all.

    Psalms 55:22
    Cast your burden on the LORD, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.

    Psalms 9:9
    The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

    Psalms 27:4-5 One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple. For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will lift me high upon a rock.

    Psalms 46:1
    God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

    1 Peter 5:6-7
    Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
    Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

    Indeed. The population here is thin in recent times but we'll help how we can.
    There are no crimes against people.
    There are only crimes against the state.
    And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.

    Prayers said,, and will be.

    and get second opinions. My first prayer is that they are wrong. and they often are.
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    Will be included in my prayers. Keep those of us here in the loop. If money is extremely tight, please take a look into clinical trials. Do a search of worldwide trials on clinicaltrials.gov . Give your kids lots of hugs.

    Praying for you and your wife.

    Two years ago today was the last time I saw not.your.average.joe before he was diagnosed with stage 4 leukemia.
    God has carried me through my trials and my prayer is that He carries you and yours through your current trials and whatever trials may arise.

    Don’t worry
    Matthew 6:25-27 “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?
    Luke 12:24 Look at the ravens. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds!
    If you find this to be a worthwhile message, spread it throughout the land.
    Ron Paul
