Hello everyone,

You know, with so many people having so many problems out here tonight, I feel selfish in asking, but could you all please send thoughts and prayers up north to Boston this weekend? I don't remember if I posted this or not, but my Rick is having HIPEC surgery at Tufts in Boston on Monday morning, and all prayers for a successful surgery are very welcome. Love and hugs to all, Cynthia

    Prayers
    Good vibes and best wishes to Rick on his HIPEC Monday. And all the same for you too, Cynthia. Make sure you both get lots of rest beforehand.

    It's never selfish to ask for prayers. Prayers benefit both the sender and receiver. Sending out prayers to others is a gift. The person praying receives harmony in their heart and soul.

    Oh never
    Never, ever is asking for a prayer or two, or a good thought another's way, ever, ever an imposition, inopportune moment, or an interruption on anyone's lives here!!!
    You will have our thoughts and prayers throughout this weekend and especially on Monday!!!
    Many good vibes, well wishes and heartfelt prayers sent Rick's and your way!!!!
    Luv and hugs to both of you hun,

    prayers!
    I pray for strength and comfort for the both of you as you move through the weekend and into the procedure. I pray for guidance for the docs and staff as they do their job to battle the beast and for a stress free recovery.

    Prayers
    Cynthia,
    I am praying for you and Rick. I am also praying for the surgeons. When you can, let us know how he is. We all know HIPEC can be tough but well worth it.

    Aloha,

    It's Monday! I just wanted to drop a quick good luck wish to you for Ricks HIPEC today. I'm sure you'll be busy but, wanted to let you know that I was thinking of you today. Sending out prayers for an uneventful procedure and a speedy recovery.

    Hi everyone,
    Thank you so

    Hi everyone,

    Thank you so very much for the well wishes and prayers. I'm currently sitting here in the Tufts family waiting room, waiting for the doctor to come out with an update. He anticipates that it will be a 12-14hr.surgery, so it's going to be a long day here. Rick and I stayed in town last night so that we wouldn't have an 1 1/2hr. drive in this morning from NH - it really made a difference in his stress level. I'll send an another update tomorrow when he's out of surgery. Thanks again for your support my friends, it means a lot. Good health to all, Cynthia

    Yep- done!
    Cynthia,
    I will be praying for him today. Please don't ever think such a request is selfish- we're glad to know about your brother and glad to think of and pray for him.
    Please keep us informed on how it goes!
