Organizing Prayer

Ok prayer warriors, I’m organizing prayer and not just because I have a Type A personality!


Metisha met with the oncologist at MD Anderson this morning. This doctor feels it is best to pursue trials now because she has seen the best results from these drug combinations. Tisha isn’t against doing trials but many of these would not allow her to return to school this fall which is a huge disappointment. But there is a more urgent issue. For the last two weeks Metisha has been having a lot of back pain and headaches and the types of headaches she has is concerning to the doctor. If the headaches are caused by the cancer spreading to Tisha’s brain, she will not be able to do these trials so the doctor is scheduling an MRI of her spine and brain. The scan of her spine is Friday and her brain scan is Monday.

Yesterday I was hit with the thought that I need to organize a 24 hour prayer vigil for Tisha and I can’t shake it. When I shared that with Tisha she said that is funny because she was just thinking about the last time they thought the cancer may have spread to her brain and how much of a difference people’s prayers made that night during emergency surgery.

So I am putting a call out to all prayer warriors who are willing to commit to pray for Metisha for 30 minutes. I am looking for enough warriors to cover each 30 minute increment (12am to 12:30am, 12:30am to 1:00am, etc) beginning at midnight tomrrow, covering all day Friday, July 23rd. Please send me a Facebook message or email me at unruhregan@att.net if you are willing to set an alarm and spend 30 minutes praying for Tisha.  Please tell me which 30 minutes of the day on July 23rd you will be praying so I can ensure we cover the full 24 hours.  Of course we are grateful for any prayer so please say a short prayer for Tish even if you can’t participate in the vigil.

Here is what we are praying for:
• The headaches to once again be caused by sinus issues, not cancer. No cancer in her brain.
• Immediate relief from the headaches and pain in her back.
• Wisdom for the doctors.
• Wisdom for Metisha and Mark.
• A fighting attitude for Metisha. She is feeling very weighed down.
• Physical, mental and emotional strength for Metisha.
• Metisha to be able to go to school in the fall. This is important to her.
• The cancer to be gone from her liver, stomach, intestines, ribs and spine
• Mental and emotional strength for Mark.
• Mark and Metisha’s families as we strive to support Mark and Tisha. Metisha’s parents Danny and Barbara, sister and brother-in-law Regan and Jeremy. Mark’s parents Lyle and Ann, sister Kaley.
• FOR A MIRACLE OF TOTAL HEALING FROM CANCER HERE ON EARTH.

We are so thankful and grateful for your prayers!
