Over the years, I've seen many posts asking for prayers and I always appreciate seeing the board coming together. I never thought I would be the one asking for good wishes from my fellow PSU posters.
Our second daughter of three has lymphoma. She's a junior at the University of New Mexico. I know everyone says their daughter is special or bright and pretty and in some cases there is probably a bias but in our case she got Mom's genes and is a wonderful, very likeable/personable and pretty young lady who has never given her mom and I any angst. I stood in awe of her decision to go to school 1700 miles away, not knowing a soul. Here I thought going to PSU with a bunch of my hs buddies was big step. She has a wonderful set of friends, a 3.5 GPA and was planning to go to grad school and then possibly on to a PH.D. in the emerging field of forensic psychology. A smart, beautiful young lady with a plan (again Mom's genes no doubt).
Today, she finishes her first round of chemo in New Mexico. If everything checks out in the next few days, her and my wife can begin a drive back home. I ask that you send a prayer up to the big guy/gal for some treatment success. We've been told its treatable but I'd like her to get well and have no complications so they can be home for Christmas. She'll receive treatment at Duke for 6-9 months but we have to get thru this first round. I believe in the power of good thoughts, not sure why but its a karma thing and who am I to question the power of prayer?
keeping your daughter in the light of healing
