About Me
- Malina
- I started to write this blog in January 2010 when I found out I had breast cancer. In the archive you can read my honest account on the whole experience. How devastating it was for me and how I didn't know if I was going to live to see the next Christmas. How my beautiful family (my little boy and a wonderful husband) supported me through surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The cancer has just come back and metastasised with a vengeance and it is now incurable, at least by conventional medicine. I am trying alternative treatments but I also believe God wants to heal me.

A Good Night's Sleep
This is Bob writing. A great deal has happened since Malina's last post. She went for a second drain yesterday and also saw the oncologist. It's bad news. Malina is very poorly and her illness is progressing much too fast. The alternative treatments we believe in so much are not working quickly enough and now she is too ill to continue them. Today Malina is going to St Julia's Hospice so that her last few days are as comfortable as possible. We took this decision together and we have absolutely no regrets trying what we did to heal her body. Only a miracle can heal her body, her soul, spirit, call it what you will, is fine.

ReplyDeleteMailna we love you so much and all pray to God.
ReplyDeleteDearest Malina,
ReplyDeleteI join together with your faith in God and will only speak healing words to you and your situation. Only God knows His plan(s) for you, so while you are still here I want to say that I am grateful to have met you, and to learn from you. Yours is a story of strength, hope, and unyielded faith in our Sovereign Lord. It will continually be my prayer that God uses you as a testament of his glory and healing power. I pray that the holy spirit will engulf you and restore your strength. Keep your thoughts on Him always and rebuke doubt and fear if they try to rise. I personally know many people who God healed of various cancers, and people who He raised from the dead -- All for His glory. Again, I don't know what He has for you but I do have faith, I do have hope, and I have His Word that says, By His stripes we are healed!

this is true, i was wondering how he can heal now when it is so late, but then i remembered when Jesus was on His way to the centurian's house to heal his daughter and they came and said it was too late, she had died. but still Jesus came to the house, and H e said, she is only sleeping, and she got up and was alive. I have only just read this blog, but I am here now praying in my heart to God for your healing.
DeleteFirst I prayed for your health and your strength to be restored. but now I will praise God and marvel at his glory as I have faith now that you will already be healed, as Jesus did to the centurian's daughter. And may your life be for the glory of God!
Sending you infinite love by way of God, and great happiness thqat by His stipes you ARE healed.
God bless, ALice xxx
may God's grace, may God's glory, may God's strength be yours, may God's love be with you as you are healed
DeleteAmen and amen! God will meet us where we are. No situation is too big. Afterall, He's GOD! :)

ReplyDeleteMalina, through the beautiful Mermaids we met. We have laughed together and cried together. We had such fun doing the Made for Life calenders, had lovely social times with the odd glass of wine. You have encouraged some of us to do things we never thought we could, to overcome our fears. We did this for beautiful you, trying to be strong and brave like you. You will always be in the hearts of the members of the Mermaid Young Womens Support Group.Hope you are not in pain now you are in the care of St Julia's.

ReplyDeleteI have been reading your blog for many months and I check daily to see how you are. I was so saddened to read the post by Bob, but your messages have been so very inspirational.

I will always feel truly grateful that I found you, I have followed your blog and am in complete awe of you. My heart goes to you Malina, your family and our friends and may the angels be with you and them now and forever. Thank you for your strength, my heart and love to you all xx
