Sorry. I just got home from the hospital. He did well during the surgery, but he is in a frightful amount of pain. And the incision reaches from one side of his body all the way to the other and then down the side a little. It's over a foot long. The surgeon is 99% sure it is cancer. He also wants to remove the tumor on the other kidney within months. The tumor they removed was as large as a football or small melon (17x14x15 cm approximately). The other tumor is 4x5x4 cm which is large enough that when found at that size, it is removed. I feel so helpless. If everyone could please pray for his pain relief. It's all so overwhelming at present. Thank you.
Sorry that he is going through such a tough times with all that pain. Will offer prayers this evening.
Prayer for graces through St Charbel Intercession. O God who are glorified in your saints, and who inspired the monk and hermit Charbel to follow Jesus heroically in poverty, chastity, and obedience; we beg you the grace to love and serve you as he did. And as you have already shown the power of intercession by many miracles and favors, graciously grant us the favor that we ask, if it be your will. Amen.
Thank you Byron for posting the prayer. I will be praying at Adoration tomorrow am. Just saw this. So sorry for you Sterph.
I am so sorry to hear all this; most especially at Christmas time. Offering up more prayers and Mass this morning.
Will pray hard for your hubby's pain relief and for you as well, Sterph. Reciting the Precious Blood novena for these intentions. If you're feeling helpless now, it might mean that God wants you to rest. Please rest, Sterph. All the praying hearts on the forum will help carry you.
Yes. The oil just came in the mail. I will take it and the prayer to him this evening after work. Thank you.
