Prayer Request
I just found out that my younger brother (20) has had a swollen area on his face for at least a month now. My dad finally got him to go to the dentist because they thought it was an infected tooth. Well, the dentist told him that he had a tumor under his right eye and needs to see a specialist ASAP. Of course my brother is terrified that it's going to be something terrible. In addition to the normal worried feelings you might have, he always sees the bad side of things. He doesn't even want to tell my mom and I'm not even supposed to know. (So, I go post it for the world to see...)
Anyway, I'd really appreciate it if you could keep him in your prayers, send some healthy dust his was or whatever you do for good luck. He has an appt with a specialist Tues but I don't know if he'll even find anything out then. I'm trying not to worry but it's hard.
Thanks
Re: Prayer Request
Thoughts and prayers. Thankfully he went to the Dr and is getting it looked into. Not so sure my brother would unless he was taken kicking and screaming.
