http://rightfromtheknees.org/request/77 My brother (Sylvan) is struggling. He successfully beat cancer 5 years ago but now it is back. He has been undergoing chemo for about 8 weeks now and is having a difficult time. They give him steroids along with each dose but that wears off so he feels good for a few days and rotten for a few and then starts over again. He is depressed and scared although he would never tell anyone.<br /> <br /> The white cells got low this past week and he developed an infection. He has been in the hospital since Wednesday. Hopefully he can come home in a day or two.<br /> <br /> Please pray for his strength and courage.....for comfort for his wife....and pray that he can understand that God has a purpose for his suffering.<br /> <br /> Thank you... 2008 Right From The Knees - All Rights Reserved Sat, 22 Nov 2008 02:17:21 -0700 en-us Dear God,lt;br /gt; Please lay your hands on Sylvan and give him comfort and courage during his times of lifes struggles.
