Title: Please Pray For My Boss
Post by: Lisa on May 21, 2013, 11:37:44 AM
He was recently diagnosed with a carcinoid cancer.  He's 36 years old, and has four small boys.  His Hebrew name is Mordechai Ben Rivkah.  He's scheduled for surgery this afternoon at 1:00 p.m.

Thanks.

Psalms Chapter 120 תְּהִלִּים

א  שִׁיר, הַמַּעֲלוֹת:
אֶל-יְהוָה, בַּצָּרָתָה לִּי--    קָרָאתִי, וַיַּעֲנֵנִי.   1 A Song of Ascents. {N}
In my distress I called unto the LORD, and He answered me.
ב  יְהוָה--הַצִּילָה נַפְשִׁי, מִשְּׂפַת-שֶׁקֶר:    מִלָּשׁוֹן רְמִיָּה.   2 O LORD, deliver my soul from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
ג  מַה-יִּתֵּן לְךָ, וּמַה-יֹּסִיף לָךְ--    לָשׁוֹן רְמִיָּה.   3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
ד  חִצֵּי גִבּוֹר שְׁנוּנִים;    עִם, גַּחֲלֵי רְתָמִים.   4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of broom.
ה  אוֹיָה-לִי, כִּי-גַרְתִּי מֶשֶׁךְ;    שָׁכַנְתִּי, עִם-אָהֳלֵי קֵדָר.   5 Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meshech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar!
ו  רַבַּת, שָׁכְנָה-לָּהּ נַפְשִׁי--    עִם, שׂוֹנֵא שָׁלוֹם.   6 My soul hath full long had her dwelling with him that hateth peace.
ז  אֲנִי-שָׁלוֹם, וְכִי אֲדַבֵּר;    הֵמָּה, לַמִּלְחָמָה.   7 I am all peace; but when I speak, they are for war. {P}

Sounds like much ado about nothing. These things are harmless when removed early.

Hi Lisa,

He is in my thoughts.  I can't remember from pathology.  I think that has a good prognosis, maybe it is the carcinoid tumor I am thinking of

Hey everyone,

He had surgery this afternoon.  The origin of the carcinoid was in his small intestine.  They remove  that turmor.  They also found a tumor in his liver which they removed.  And they removed his gallbladder, because the medicine he'll now be taking causes gall stones.

I hope that he'll be able to feel healthy now.

I thought you were talking about skin carcinoma, in the skin.

No.  This type of cancer is supposedly slow growing.  It's called carcinoid (not to be cofunsed with carcinomas).  Anyway, I've heard my boss is in good spirits.  He's up and texting.
