Prayer Request for our Friend, Paula Taylor!

With Paula's permission, I am requesting prayers for her, this a copy of an email I have received from Paula recently as I was inquiring how she was feeling.  I believe strongly about the power of prayers and Paula does too:

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS NOW FROM THE SURGERY I HAD TO REMOVE THE LUMP IN MY NECK.  I HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO EAT MUCH BECAUSE I HAVE SO MUCH PAIN WHEN I DO EAT. IT IS LIKE I HAVE A CANKOR SORE IN MY THROAT AND WHEN I EAT IT FEELS LIKE I POURED SALT ON THE SORES. I HAD BEEN TAKING IBUPROFEN BEFORE I ATE TO EASE THE PAIN.

I HAD TO SEE MY ONCOLOGIST THURSDAY AND HE SAID THAT THERE I SKIN HANGING IN THE THE THROAT AND I HAVE SOME LIASIONS THAT ARE VERY SORE LOOKING.

I NOW HAVE TO GO BACK TO DR EMERICK BECAUSE HE IS THE SURGEON. IN THE MEANTIME, DR CLARK GAVE ME A PRESCRIPTION FOR MY THROAT. IT IS A LIQUID WITH LYDOCAINE, BENADRYL AND SOMETHING ELSE TO NUMB THE THROAT SO THAT I CAN EAT. I LOST 6 POUNDS SINCE MY LAST VISIT.

I TRIED THE PRESCRIPTION THURSDAY NIGHT AND IT WORKED. I SAT DOWN TO WATCH TELEVISION AFTER I ATE AND THAT IS THE LAST THING I REMEMBER.  I HAVE SUCH A LOW TOLERANCE TO DRUGS. I AM CUTTING DOWN ON THE AMOUNT PRESCRIBED. I NEED TO BE ABLE TO FUNCTION WITHOUT FALLING ASLEEP.
