Prayers needed for my grand-daughter...

[Harold Burrell]

We just got word yesterday that my 10 yr. old grand-daughter (Catriona) has a problem...

She has been having some pretty bad headaches lately. The thought was that they were migraines. The doctor, however, wanted to do an MRI "just to be sure". Good thing. What they found was a cyst on her pineal gland in her brain. The doctor told my daughter that they do not worry about pineal cysts when they are .5 cm or less. This one, however, is about 2 cm. The other concern is that cysts are usually filled with fluid. The core of this one is, apparently, solid. They are calling it a mass.

They are talking surgery of some kind. As of now, we have no idea as to what kind or when.

Anyway...I am asking for prayers. Please pray for my Catriona Rose...

Harold, our prayers go out to Catriona Rose, to you and the rest of her family.

When my son was eight he was having night sweats and other symptoms. We has it checked out and he ended up in Detroit's Children Hospital with stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma. After one round of chemo all signs of the cancer had disappeared. Today he is a strapping 41 year old ironworker. Thank God for modern medicine.

Consider the prayers outbound Harold. Children are our future.

Best wishes for your granddaughter, you and other family members.

When my oldest son was 15 (1994), he began passing out the weekend befor Christmas. Many neurologic exams, and a MRI later, he was scheduled for brain surgery - the MRI revealed an encapsulated cyst on the left side of his brain. He was outfitted with a collar, and scheduled for surgery the week after New Years.

Today is his birthday - he is 35 y.o.

Prayers said for all.

Thanks all. I really do appreciate it. I don't know the details yet as to how this will all play out, but what I DO know is that she is in the Lord's hands.

Not such a bad place to be, really...

Harold,

Thanks for sharing. We will uphold Catriaona, family, and her medical team in prayer. I can identify with these challenges as I had a brain tumor, originally diagnosed as terminal, turned out to be benign.
