Prayers Please, One More Time

[PM Thor]

I cannot believe I am yet again asking for prayers.

My Mother started recieving radiation treatment today for a very agressive lung cancer. She is having treatments every day for the foreseeable future and has been checked into the hospital quite unexpectedly. The prognosis is not good, considering that the cancer has virtually doubled in size in 3 weeks and has spread beyond just one lung.

So I ask please, if you can, say a prayer for an absolute saint, a woman who raised 6 boys and was once named Ohio Teacher of the Year. She, and my entire family would appreciate it. Thanks for your time and attention. (it has been a roller coaster ride for the past year, to put it mildly)

[Xpectations]

Of course, PMT! Sounds like an awesome lady!

[boozehound]

Prayers for you and your Mother.

[Muskie73]

As a husband of a former teacher I know how special these people are. Prayers are on the way. God keep you all in his grace.

[blobfan]

My prayers for your mother, to you, to your friends and family and everyone who's life she has touched. Sounds like that's a lot of prayers going out.

[xeus]

Prayers Thor. Never mind the 6 boys, she's a saint just for raising you.

[XU 87]

Done

From one who's Mom, also a teacher, died from complications due to breast cancer almost 30 years ago. My mom has been looking out for me ever since, perhaps she can do that same for you mom.
Prayers for your mom Thor. Hold her tight

[D-West & PO-Z]

Done Thor.

PM,
Angel Abigail on the way. Prayers from me and my family. Mom died of breast and uterine cancer in '78, wife had double mastectomy and is five years clean. I just observed three years clean. Angel Sydney will also be detached. We'll double team that zxx@#$%^&"C". BTW, don't ever hesitate to ask. I'll be doing so in special post later tonight.

Prayers offered Thor.

[X-band '01]

God bless all people who are in the teaching profession, especially your mother Thor.

[MADXSTER]

Praying for the best. God Speed!

[nuts4xu]

Hang in there Thor. Prayers are on their way.

In my mind and intentions, Thor.

Ive got a sister who has come out the other end from colon cancer surgery, radiation and chemo; and a friend who lost a quarter of her lung to cancer. Cancer is a tough tough row to hoe, but family and friends will get her through.

[PM Thor]

I want to genuinely thank everyone for the kind words and prayers.

Unfortunately my Ma passed away Monday morning after a very short, but fierce, fight with lung cancer. So if you could, please just say a quick prayer for Irenes soul. She was a damn good woman. Oh and Hospice of Cincinnati East really do Gods work. They are angels on Earth.

Pete, Xavier Nation mourns your loss as if it were ours.

You will be in our prayers.

[xudash]

I heard the news last night in Dana's.

God's speed to your mother. I have already said a prayer for Irene.

Losing a parent is tough. At least you come to think back on all the good times as time moves forward, and you do that knowing she is in a very good place.

[rhyno2110]

I just had a mini roller coaster ride, nothing comparable to your situation.

It felt like opening day for the Baltimore Orioles with their new manager Buck Showalter. Tons of energy, and the O's won. I hadn't felt better all year after watching the O's play.

And then I see this news. I am awfully sorry about the passing of your mother. I hope you and your family the best as you endure this. You are in my prayers.

[GuyFawkes38]

thoughts and prayers are with you.

[wkrq59]

Pete,
No matter the age, losing a parent sucks. May God grant your mom, Irene, His smile and blessings eternally. And may you and yours, all of you, be comforted in the knowledge that we'll continue to remember you in our prayers. After all, you are all part of Xavier.:(

PM

Thoughts and prayers to you and all of your mom's loved ones. My mom passed last year and I find solace in remembering all of the wonderful memories I have of her. In time I hope you can do the same.

[Xpectations]

Very sad to hear of your mom's passing, PMThor. Prayers for all of you too who loved and were touched by her.

[Muskie1000]

yes losing a mom sucks - the pain does get easier, however, and at least for me, not many days will go by that you won't think of her, so try and remember all the good things.

[bourbonman]

Thoughts and prayers. Peace to all.

[Snipe]

My prayers and my heart go out to you and your family.

[xnatic03]

PM, very sorry to hear about your loss. I cannot imagine what it feels like to lose a parent, and my prayers are with you and your family.
This past month seems to have royally sucked with all kinds of death. A good friend of mine (and '95 X alum and big X fan) and his wife lost their 10 month old daughter while she waited for a liver to come in for a transplant. My cousin gave birth early to twins and the boy only made it 24 hours. I had a former co-worker commit suicide. To top it off, the woman who died in the jetski accident oh the Ohio River a few weeks ago was an ex of mine (from high school).

[UCGRAD4X]

prayers are on the way

lung cancer took my mom 20+ years ago - devastating

condolences

[JimmyTwoTimes37]

Very sorry for your loss PM. Your mom will always be with you. The pain will fade with time, and the happy memories will become stronger.
