PRAYER REQUESTS

Nash Khatter                                  submitted May 6, 2008

Nash and I continue to be overwhelmed with the prayers, thoughts, and wonderful well wishes from our Cursillo community.  Nash completed his first round of chemo therapy last week and other than a bit of nausea and fatigue the treatment went fairly well.  Nash did have his PET scan, but unfortunately it has to be redone this week due to technical error.   
 
Nash has returned to work part time and hopes to go back to full time (on his none chemo weeks) soon.  Know that you are in our hearts and prayers and we feel your prayers surrounding us, even though we are not as good at giving updates as we should be.
 
YSIC,
 
Dana

 

Nash Khatter                                  submitted April 21, 2008

Nash and I are overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support from our brothers and sisters in Christ throughout our Cursillo community.  Nash commented today that he has felt all the prayers that have been lifted up on his behalf and they bring him such comfort during this time in our lives.

 
As many of you know Nash had surgery to remove a cancerous growth in his colon approximately one month ago.  Nash is getting stronger each day and is back seeing patients part time.  Next week he begins a multitude of appointments which will prepare us both for his upcoming chemo treatments, which we believe will begin the first part of May.  Nash has really been a trooper, following his now regimented routine and very strict diet that his wife (myself) has put him on.  Nash's spirits are good and he is enjoying getting back into some sense of a routine and spending time with his family.  As the Men of #116 may remember Nash spoke of community during your weekend.  Nash and I view this as another community that Christ has decided needs Nash's membership and we hope to be able to shine Jesus' light to others in that community.
 
Please continue to pray for Nash as he enters chemo and know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers even if we are unable to update you as often as we would like.
 
In His Loving Care,
 
Dana Day and Nash Khatter

Could you please send this to the Cursillo community. I just got word today on the outcome of Nash Khatter surgery and it is not good, he has been told that he stage 4 cancer. He will be going through the treatments which include chemo & radiation but is still does not good. He is going to need all the prayers that we can raise up to God. As I hear any more I will keep you posted, but I know you would want know this. Thank you and God Bless.

Aaron Stumper                                  submitted February 28, 2008

 

Prayer Request for my son, Aaron Stumper. He is experiencing severe

depression, is under several Dr's care, and maybe going into the Mayo

Clinic for further testing.  He has gone from 14 credits at ASU West to

 

9 to try and reduce the stress he has become unable to handle.  Up to

now, he has carried 16 credits a semester for the last 2 years, had

continued to make Dean's List and was recently accepted into two Honor

Societies.  Over the past several weeks he has crashed and  hit rock

bottom.

 

Thanks,

De Colores,

 

Jerry Stumper

 

Rich Bestwick                                  submitted April 13, 2008

 

I brought Rich home yesterday.  Praise the Lord!!!  He's doing well &

VERY happy to be home.  We're trying to get into our routine - whatever

that may be!  His outpatient therapy has not been scheduled yet.  They

should be calling next week to set things up.

 

If you send out an update on him, please be sure to say that we thank

everyone for all the visits, prayers, cards, palanca, love, hugs, etc.,

etc.

 

Love YSIC,

Linda & Rich Bestwick

 

Rich Bestwick                                  submitted February 26, 2008

 

Thanks be to God and thank you for your prayers.  Brother Rich Bestwick is off the ventilator and out of ICU.  He has moved to room #654 (Scottsdale Orborn), for any who wish to have a short visit with him (about ten minutes is his limit at this time).  He has an irregular heartbeat and they felt that may have contributed to his fall.  He is undergoing a heart cauterization, not catherization, Friday around 1pm.  I spoke with Linda earlier and she sounds like she is coming down with this dreadful flu.  Your prayers have been a great comfort and encouragement for Rich and Linda.  So, continue to pray for Rich and particularly his surgical team and Linda’s health as they move forward.  I’ll update again following his surgery.

Rich Bestwick                                  submitted February 25, 2008

 

Brother Rich Bestwick (Redeemer-Wickenburg) fell Friday (February 22, 2008), while attending team meeting at First Evangelical, and suffered severe head trauma.  He is currently at Scottsdale Osborn Hospital.  His prognosis is unknown at this time, but he is stable.  I just spoke with Linda and she is positive and grateful for the prayers that this community will be providing on their behalf.  Please pray for Rich and Linda for strength, healing, and trust.  I’ll keep you informed as I’m updated.

Roger Collinson                                submitted October 30, 2007

 

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I am asking you to please keep Roger Collinson in your prayers.

He has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and will be operated on Nov.

20th at Scottsdale Shea Hospital.

Please pray that the operation is totally successful, the disease is taken out of him

and he is restored to his normal good health.  That there is no more

disease in his body. Please pray that his blood and spleen are healthy.

We thank our Lord that Roger's PSA is very low at 2.2 and the Gleason score shows a very

slow growing disease.  We thank our Lord that the total bone scan he has had shows no evidence of disease.

Roger attended Cursillo 89.  He has been on team three times since.

Thank you and God's Blessings,

Eileen Collinson    Cursillo 90

 

 

Debra Ohlinger’s second cousin Doug           submitted December 16, 2007
 

I would like needed prayers for my cousin DeAnna and her son Doug.

Doug played football about two weeks ago and injured his foot.  It started to swell but he did not get it looked at.  He was not able to put any pressure on it and was crawling around his place.  He went to the hospital ( St. John's , Joplin MO ) and he was checked in. On Wed. They did surgery and found an infection so bad they left his foot open so the infection could drain.  My cousin, DeAnna went to see him Thurs. morning and found out that the infection had gotten to his lungs and he had pockets throughout his body.  They put him on a ventilator and a medical induced coma.  They also gave him a 50% chance to live. 

Please pray for him, that his body will heal. Pray for DeAnna to get through this.

Doug is 23 years old.

Thank you,

Debra Ohlinger #115 table of Rebekah.
