Please pray for my brother, his wife and family during this most difficult time. I can't imagine the emotions they're going through right now. All I keep thinking about is our minister in church yesterday telling us that the Bible states 365 times, "Do not fear." So, I'm leaning on God right now, trusting that He will watch closely over my brother, whom I love with all my heart.
I'll keep you updated as I learn more.
Thank you,

PS~It's 4 PM and I just received a Christmas card from a friend of mine in Alabama. In it, she wrote that a lady with whom I got to know in Hannah Circle at our former church, has been diagnosed with breast cancer, for the second time. She had it the first time when we lived in AL. and she underwent chemo. and radiation. She has a daughter Brittany's age and a son a little younger than Abby. She's the sweetest, most uplifting person. Well, she'll be undergoing a double mastectomy around Christmas, followed by chemo. Please say a prayer for her, as well!

Oh April, I will pray right now!
Oh April! I'm so sorry to read this. After reading your post, I immediately prayed so that I wouldn't forget. Thanks for letting us know. Keep us posted friend.
I am almost out of lunch hour time, so I will read your first post later. For some reason, my front page is not updating new posts for you. I thought that it was kind of weird that it stated that your last post was 3 days ago...so I thought I'd better click on your link just to see...sure enough you've posted twice. My stupid page! That will not be good if I can't fix it. Okay...I'm rambling.
Bless you dear friend!
Hi!
It's me again....I just visited Lorrie's blog and apparently the problem is not with my frontpage that is not updating your post. It must be something with your page...as it states on Lorrie's blog too that your last post was 3 days ago. Just thought I'd let you know that probably most of your blogging buddies are seeing the same thing on their bloglist for you. Okay...lunch is almost over. Gotta go!
I don't know what you will have to do in order to fix it. Okay....BYE!
April, I just lifted up your brother and his family in prayer.
Please keep us posted.

I'm sorry to hear this terrible news. Please send me names so I can put them on the prayer list in my Sunday school class. How old they are and any details.
I am stopping to pray right now.
Blessings.
April,
I just said a prayer for your brother, his family and for you. Please keep us posted sweet sister.
((hugs)) to you!
My sweet friend. I got your Christmas card in the mail and what a smile it brought to my face. I am so glad to have met you in blog land.
I am so sorry to hear about these things you have talked about here. I am so afraid I will get a call like this one day myself regarding my dad. He and I both are so fair skinned and red headed. He has already had several melanomas burned off, but thank goodness nothing major...yet. And your friend. I just can't imagine. No words. I will pray.
Love to you.
Promising to pray...please send our thoughts to both your brother and your friend (from "blogland") - be sure to keep us posted. (Saying a prayer for you, as well.)
I will pray. I know that this must be difficult for you and your family as well. Remember that God loves you and your loved ones. I hope for the best and have faith.
Yes, April...I'm praying. {hugs} to you my friend. Ang
