I am in accord with Mariy, in lifting Betty's family up at this time, having just lost my Mom last December, I know it is VERY difficult, but also, we rejoice that Betty is in the arms of Our Lord Jesus RIGHT NOW!!! PRAISE GOD, she is in Paradise and will know no pain or sadness ever again!!
I ask for our Loving Heavenly Father to bring peace to Betty's family at this time and hope as the pain eases, they can rejoice, knowing she indeed is with our Lord at last.

All of us pray comfort for Bettys' family and friends, but also, we must rejoice that she has Gone Home. May those of you left behind be comforted by The Lord Jesus Christ,with whom Betty now resides.

It is with much sadness that I send this final update to let you know that Betty passed away Sunday, October 19, 2003 at 4:04 pm.....she was at peace with virtually no pain. Your continued support and prayers were of great comfort to her during the last weeks of her life.
May you all be richly blessed for your compassion during her time of need.
Thank you....Cheri Jones, friend

Betty, I was on chemo for two years and know how very, very weak you get. I also know that as children of God we need never fear when it is our time to go, God's promise is true, the Paradise that awaits us is so glorious, our human minds cannot comprehend!!! Jesus has you in his arms, Betty and we all love you and continue to pray for you....we will continue to do so....know you are loved and our Heavenly Father has you safely in His loving hands!!
God Bless you!

Thank you all, so very much, for your continued daily prayers! My condition is still very much the same, more valleys than peaks, but I do seem to manage at least 1-2 "good" days a week. I'm continuing to lose weight, I just don't seem to have much of an appetite anymore. I've lost just about all my strength and require assistance to do regular life skills such as dressing and undressing now. But, my faith in the Lord is still strong and when my times comes, I certainly know where I'll be going! The support I received here has made my predicament a bit easier, in knowing there are wonderful Christian people who continue to lift me up in their daily prayers.
Thank you and God bless you all....Betty

Dearest Betty,
I also have just lifted you up in prayer and know this, God WILL heal you, you must rest in HIS loving arms and abide in HIS peace. Our Lord will heal your earthly body or give you the glorious ULTIMATE healing, where you will have no pain OR sorrow! One way or the other, you will be healed, dear sister!
PRAISE GOD and I pray for your family to have the peace that passes all understanding at this time and give them the strength and the knowing that our Lord is a loving and compassionate Lord and HE is indeed holding you all in His loving arms at this time. You will be in my daily prayers.
Pam

Hi Betty:
My the God of all Mercy, and comfort and hope bring you peace and joy in this time that enemy has set up for your pain and destruction.
May this be a time of gathering and enjoying family and friends and of moment by moment thanksgiving for all that is good and comes from God.
May each day to come be a blessing and not a curse. May each day to come bring you closer and more in love with HIM.
May the grace HE gives you in this time be a wonder and testiment to HIS glory in you and upon your life!
God keep you in His arms and may you continually know that HIS grace is sufficient to endure any pain and nausea brought on by drugs, and may you face each day with confidence and strength in knowing that he will not allow you more than you can bear.
May you not find fear or dread of the days to come but may you find joyful anticipation as you continue in fatih to run the course that God has set before you.
May your family come to understnd that death has no sting for those who love the LORD with all their hearts. And should the Sovergn Lord decide that your healing should not come in this life but in the one that follows, may they find comfort in the day that their loss is your gain as your body is healed and glorified and you are blessed to sit at HIS feet in worship forevermore.
In The mighty name of Jesus, I pray and give thanks.
Amen!!

Hello, my name is Betty and I am from Lacombe, Louisiana. I have just been diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer in my liver and lungs, Stage IV. I am currently receiving chemotherapy, not in hopes to prolong my life but to hopefully improve the quality. I ask for your prayers of healing and strength in order to face what lies ahead. My prayer for each of you is that you be blessed in return. Thank you.
