    Prayer Request

    Hello,

    You all are like a family to me and thats why this was the first thing that came to my mind. You all have been there in the worst times of my life while my husband was away and going through the stressful waiver which thanks God is a thing of the past now. My husband's sister in law (who is like a sister to me) is really sick. We just found out is cancer - stage 4. She is only in her late 20's and has 3 beautiful little girls. She has no one as her mom passed when she was little and the only sister passed about 3 years ago. We have been really close for the last 7 years because we spend a lot of time together with our crazy husbands who are currently thousands of miles away but should be back soon. We found out after they left on their trip. Please pray for her, her husband and the girls. Its a very difficult situation and we will really need lots of prayers.

    Okay, so I really really need to ask this. Where is her husband? What is his or her immigration situation? From your post, it sounds like she too is waiting on her husband who is thousands of miles away. If there is pending immigration stuff(waiver or whatever) they need to expedite the case immediately. I say this for two reasons. The first is so that he can take care of her and the children. The second is the MOST important. If there is a pending waiver case and she dies, the father will have no way to get back as children aren't qualifying relatives for waivers. If none of this applies then please forgive me.

    Now, I'm so very sorry for your family. My cousin died of ovarian cancer this year, and I do cancer testing in the lab where I work. I'm reminded to be thankful for my life every single day. I hope that she will be surrounded by love and comfort during her final time on this earth. I'll keep your entire family in my prayers.
