Judita from Santa Fe, NM, asked:
Dear Julie,
I learned about you from Nancy Mae. I just found out that my uncle has throat cancer. He is going to have chemotherapy and radiation treatments. I know how horrible that can be.
I wanted to know if there is anything that you could recommend to help him go through those treatments and gain his strength back faster.
I would greatly appreciate your help. All the best, Judita
Hi Judita,
How nice of you to be looking for ways to help your uncle.
I first connected to you and then from you to your uncle. I then asked his permission to scan him and he agreed. The interesting thing is, although he let me see his medical condition, he asked that I keep the information confidential.
When asking him how you could be of assistance as he deals with his condition, he said:
He wants you to just be available. He’s not sure what he’ll need and he’d appreciate it if you’d help drive him to treatments, run errands, bring in meals, and help with chores.
Your uncle told me, “I don’t want anyone hassling me.” “I need to deal with this situation my way”. He also told me he’s okay if he heals and okay if he dies.
And lastly, your uncle asked for your prayers.
Hope this information helps you help him.
Thanks for your question.
