For Dr. Ignatius Hnleski, Erin, Grace...please pray

Hi Everyone,



My niece Lorraine always comes to us with prayer requests that her friends have now come to know are willingly offered.  One of her best friend's, Janice's father, Dr. Ignatius Hnleski, a pretty well-known eye surgeon in Kennett Square, has been diagnosed with metastatic bone cancer.  He will have surgery - I think on Wed. - to have a rod inserted in his leg.  Please pray for a successful surgery and a cure of his cancer.

Lorraine's daughter, Erin, was told today that her baby in utero is rather tiny, but doc said it's probably not a problem since Erin is tiny and her fiance is not a big man.
Remember that we have been praying Erin through this pregnancy because she had 5th disease in her first trimester.  Continued prayers, please.

My sister, Grace, has had lots of diarrhea from her chemo, nausea, mouth sores, and sore throat.  She seems to think that it's from her injection of Neulasta, which builds up white blood cells.  She needs IV fluids tomorrow (already) and she's only in her second week of treatment.  Please pray that side effects won't be too bad because she has said she will refuse treatment if it makes her feel terrible.  She's not yet resigned to offer her suffering up to God, even as lent begins and we are reminded of the intense suffering Christ endured for us. 


Thanks for always praying.  Love, Marilyn
