Prayers needed

A friend of mine, Barbara has been diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer that has spread to her liver and ovary. Please pray as she begins chemotherapy soon. She has also been having trouble with nausea, poor appetite and pain. Please pray for her, her husband, three sons, almost daughter-in-law and grandson. Thanks.

Of course! I'm so sorry. May I ask about the cancer? What does it mean that it is stage IV?

Stage IV (stage 4) means the cancer has spread to other organs of the body. It's basically the worst stage of the cancer. When they biopsy a tumor on an ovary and find colon cancer cells it means she has colon cancer with mets to the ovary. It pretty much sucks.
