Default Niece needs Prayers!

My Niece i has made it to the ripe old age of 34 and has been fighting two types of Cancer for the last two years. We found out that she had breast cancer two years ago and through chemo, radiation, medication and a mastectomy, beat it...on the second to last check though to verify all the cancer was taken out, we found 5 tumors in her brain.
Back to the drugs, a radiation knife surgery, chemo...again, no luck. We found the final chance was actual knife surgery. It was gone or so we thought, now it is back and this time, my dear, dear niece is tired, too tired. She has told the family that she is done with all of the treatments, quit taking the medications...is ready to be home.
she has been given, at the most 6 months...please pray for her.

My prayers are with you all.

It's harder when they are so young. I lost my wife to cancer when she was 45. Like your niece, she was ready to go home. She prayed to be closer to the LORD, and told me that his answer was the cancer. HE was ready for her to come home. I was not. We were also given a time table. During this time we became so much closer to HIM an each other. It was some of the best times we had. We were only 46 days away from our 25th anniversary when she went home. I guess what I'm tring to say, enjoy all the time you have together. HE will never give you any more than you can handle and HE will stand by her until she goes home.

Fortunately no, she is not married, but she does have an amazing man that has been by her side since they met and after the start of her battle.
