I need to post an update as to what's going on with this prof, and ask for some more prayer for her. I'm a little unclear on details, so there won't be many here.
She had surgery and I think some of this cancer was removed. Ever since the surgery, she has been receiving radiation therapy, and it is taking a toll on her. Her hair is gone now and I almost think that's messing with her psyche more than the radiation is messing with her body. (The whole deal about hair being a woman's covering really hit me hard during class yesterday.) I ask for prayer for the destruction/removal of this cancer in her, and that she can, miraculously, get her hair back through all this.
At the same time, I don't think she is saved. I also ask for prayers for her and her husband's salvation. I have no information as to where she is spiritually, or even what her background is. All I can say for sure is that she grew up in Latvia while it was a part of the Soviet Union.
Thanx,
Jon
