My father's brother, my Uncle Joe, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I know little details about what stage or prognosis at this point.
Say a prayer for me as well. I am kind of cantankerous at the moment. This is all too much, like my whole family is disappearing very quickly. I feel guilty because I am not the sick one, I'm not going to deal with chemo. But I don't know how I can watch so many people I love go through this.
I also don't want this to be about me...
St. Peregrine, pray for us!
Update: I apologise, I got it wrong. My uncle's doctor said it looks like cancer, but the biopsy results are not back yet. In the game of telephone, I missed that. In the past few years, when a doctor has said to a family member something "looks like cancer", it usually has been, so maybe I am a bit jaded. Either way, the prayers, I am sure, will be put to good use, and it would be awesome if I am worrying for nothing.
