We need to lift one of our "sisters" up to the Lord!
I "met" Angie in the blog world months ago and our spirits knit together very quickly. I know you have all experienced this and it is part of the reason we are all still involved in this madness of blogging.
Just like you I never dreamed I would "meet" others that I would care and think about often during the day much less pray for....fervently!
Angie is a young mother of 3 and is going through cancer for the 3rd time in 10 years!
I copied this from her blog to let you know what her week will be like next week as she undergoes treatment....
I am undergoing treatment next week for my thryoid cancer recurrence. Because of the nature of the treatment and the high dosage I will be receiving, I will have to be isolated from my children for 2 weeks.
Yes, you read that right, two weeks!
For the first part of my dosage (beginning next Wednesday) I will not be able to be in the same house as they are. For the second, I will not be able to have any contact with them, but I will be able to see them.
I am praying for Angie...that God will touch her and that she will be healed...and that she will know His love for her during this difficult period.

Thanks for sharing Angie's story. I can't even imagine what it's like for her and then not being able to see/touch her kids for 2 weeks? I will keep her and her family in my prayers.

The blogging community is so wonderful in time of need. I can't tell you how thankful I am for everyone's prayers today for my Yaya.
And I will certainly go visit your friend and pray for her too.
Thank you!

I can not imagine how she feels...under going all this and away from her children. She will be in my prayers daily...thanks for sharing. "Blogville" is a wonderful way to communicate God's love.

Thanks for sharing. This is really what the hearts of our blogs should be about. Encouragement and lifting up others

I'm praying for Angie right now, and for her husband and children. I will go visit her, too. Thank you for letting us know, Jules!

I will definately do both. You are right about the encouragement blog friends can bring. Thanks for sharing.

I've been in touch with Angie almost daily in the last few weeks or maybe even months... She is truly a blessing to this world, and I pray for her and her family every day.

Thank you for this. I have been so blessed by the outpouring in my inbox. The encouragement y'all have given has helped this chick bear a heavy burden today. :)

I cannot even imagine...but I will lift her up the only way I know how - by interceding on her behalf to our Heavenly Father. Thank you so much for pointing us in her direction.

Yes, i will pray for Angie.
