Fight for Denise Blog Introduction

Hey all!  My name is Whitney, and I have created this blog for my sweet friend and co-worker, Denise, so that all of her friends and family can stay updated on her fight with breast cancer!  Her double mastectomy and reconstruction are scheduled for this Tuesday, April 26th.   I will be posting updates as I get them from her family on Tuesday and then in the following weeks as Denise recovers and begins her eight rounds of chemotherapy.

One of the reasons I wanted to keep this blog updated for Denise is so that we can all be aware of specific things to pray for.  The power of prayer is amazing, and when hundreds of us are storming heaven's gates with the same request, the outcome can be miraculous!  With that said, I have listed a few specifics to pray for below:

-For Denise's surgeons and for her surgery to go as well as possible on Tuesday.
-Pray that Denise's cancer is confined to just her breast tissue.  There will be a biopsy during surgery to determine if there are any affected lymph nodes, and if there are, the surgeons will remove them.  Pray that all lymph nodes will be clear of cancer!

Please pass this blog along to any and all around who know Denise so that everyone can be praying for her fight against breast cancer!

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, 
which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. -Philippians 4:6-7
