Q: Please pray for her!

So the other day my mom called me to tell me my brothers girlfriends mom was in the hospital she was showing symptoms of having a stroke, they thought she had a mild stroke but after doing a catscan etc, she has 2 tumors in her brain that were causing her brain to swell and gave her the symptoms of a stroke, and they also found out she has cancer in her lungs and kidneys! Havent heard yet if the tumors in her brain were cancerous or not, my brothers been up there living with his gf and her mom but hes going back to my parents in a week because his girlfriends dad hates him for some reason although if he wasnt there her mom prob wouldnt have went to the hospital, she was gona make a dr appt, and she was the only one with a valid drivers license besides my brother so he drove her and hes been driving back and forth with his gf to the hospital
Her mom and her and her dad are pot heads though but now her mom can legally smoke pot while shes doing chemotherapy, but she has a good head about all of it, shes ready to beat it! I think they caught it early enough that the chemo will work out good because the tumors were very small in her kidneys and lungs , they removed the tumors in her brain as well wich the surgery was an hr and a half long so not to bad, but please keep her in your thoughts that all is well, it just seems crazy out of nowhere she thought she was having a mild stroke and now she has cancer! She got feeling back in her leg but not in her arm yet , i havent talked to them yet though because theyve been at the hospital everyday and stayed up for 3 days straight. they have cell phones but it costs me too much money to call there phones. but please pray for her that it all goes well and they dont find anything else serious. They wouldh ave never found the cancer if she didnt go to the ER and they didnt run the tests for the "stroke" they thought she was having.

yeah, i think the stroke woulda been alot easier to deal with, the drs thought it was a stroke she was having since she had all the symptoms of a stroke, until they found the cancer and the tumors in her brain etc.

yeah and the scary part is she felt totally fine and healthy up until that day where her left side went numb and her speech got slurred.
