Tzuriya Kochevet Bat Sarah UPDATE :)

Please keep this name in mind when you daven, and / or say tehillim.
This is a friend and soon to be neighbor who was just diagnosed with cancer.
She needs all the tefilot that she can get. She is a wonderful woman.

Oy, hard to hear about this stuff. She should have a refuah shlema bekarov!

I just want to bump this so that more people can please have this woman in their tefillot. My husband saw her husband on shabbat and said that it is looking like 6 months to a year at most, but maybe with many many tefillot we can make that time much much longer.

I just wanted to bump this thread to show how amazing the power of tefilla is.
This woman's husband writes a blog and this was today's entry:

God is Listening
by Yarden Frankl
November 24th, 2011
Five months ago Stella and I sat in the Oncology Department of Shaari Tzedek and were told that she had no chance.

We were told that Stella had stomach cancer that had progressed too far to be operable. The cancer had spread outside her stomach and could not be cured.

We were told that Stella needed immediate chemotherpy. The chemo would make her terribly sick, and the best we could hope for was that it could slow the spread of the disease.

We have lived with an impending nightmare since that moment.

We just came back from a meeting at the hospital.

In the next few weeks, Stella will have an operation.

If successful, she will be cured.

She will be cured.

She will be cured.

(Breathe)

I know and want everyone to understand, that it is major surgery and that there are a lot of risks. First will have to do an exploratory examination. They may find problems not revealed by the latest scans and have to stop.

But they may not. If everything looks good, they will continue the operation.

And then�.

She will be cured.

She will be cured.

She will be cured.

(breathe)

What happened in the last five months to reverse the diagnosis?

I think the answer is pretty clear.

If you are reading this, I think you must be one of the thousands of people around the world who have been praying for Tzuriya Kochevet Bat Sarah.

Or maybe you are one of the people who sponsored my bike ride and gave to charity in Stella�s name.

Or maybe you are one of the kind souls who have kept our spirits up with e-mails, comments, visits, and chicken soup.

Whatever you have done, you have helped save Stella�s life.

Thank you.

Now I know we are not quite ready to put on the party hats because it is still too early to do that. There is still more chemo and an operation and a hospital stay and a recovery. We should not get ahead of ourselves because the coast is not clear.

But you know what?

Hell, I�m putting on my party hat now.

And if you think I talk loudly, my heart is screaming out loud right now.

And most importantly.

Thank You G-d.

-Yarden Frankl, Neve Daniel

Wow. I didn't see this thread previously, but I will certainly b"n put the name on my list and will be davening for a successful operation. Unbelievable.

Wow. May she continue to improve IY"H and may her surgery be a total success!
Thanks for sharing this.

I wanted to bump this tehillim post up because this wonderful woman is having a very important surgery tomorrow (to remove her stomach, to hopefully become cancer free, IYH)
So, if you can have Tzuriya Kochevet Bat Sarah in ALL of your tefillot tomorrow, that would be so much appreciated.
She is one special lady and her family is one special family that need their wife/mother
Thank you.

Davening.

Thanks for bumping this up. I have been davening and wondering when the surgery would be.

This is what her husband wrote on his blog after the surgery:

"The surgery is over. Surgeon is very pleased. ****** will be hospitalized for awhile. Thanks you for your prayers."

Glad to hear. I hope it will be all good news going forward.

Ive never heard about this till this morning, but what a beautiful and inspirational post to start the week.

It puts things into proper perspective.

Thanks!

I am so saddened to have to be posting in this thread again, but this wonderful woman's husband asked everyone to start davening again (if you have stopped) because it seems like the nasty cancer has returned and she will have to start going back to chemo again.

So, PLEASE have Tzuriya Kochevet Bat Sara in your tefillot. Thank you.

Oh no! She is a friend of a friend of mine.
I so wish I wasn't reading this.

refuah shleima to a brave woman and a brave family.
