She is not doing well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She was taken to the hospital the other day where she was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer. We just found out that the cancer is also in her lungs and stomach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She has no pain, but is extremely weak. She is conscious, and cognitive, but due to the weakness in her body is sleeping most of the time. Shortly, she will be moved into a care facility where she will be receiving end of life care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her spirits are good, her faith is strong and thankfully she is not suffering\u2014an answer to prayer and a gift from heaven for a woman who has loved and served YHVH Elohim all of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am still dazed and in a state of disbelieving shock at Mom&#8217;s current condition considering her excellent health and her all natural and organic lifestyle including following the biblical dietary laws since she was a child. It all seems so surreal to me. Her health was such that she visited a medical doctor only twice in her long life\u2014once in the 1940s when she had a broken arm, and two years ago when she suddenly came down with a medical condition that we now suspect was the precursor to her present condition. Because of the advanced stage of the cancer that is currently ravaging her body, it is unlikely that she will live much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mom has been the closest thing to the virtuous woman as delineated in Proverbs 31 that I know, and because of her, and my father, I am what I am today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My parents just celebrated their sixty-second anniversary of marriage last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, thank you for your prayers for my mother and family.<\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Update on Natan\\&#039;s Mother\\&#039;s Condition',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2021\/02\/09\/update-on-natans-mothers-condition\/',contentID: 'post-18353',suggestTags: '',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for your prayers for my 84 year-old mother.
