Paul Newman tem cancro e Patrick Swayze recupera

A imprensa norte-americana revelou este fim-de-semana que o actor Paul Newman, de 83 anos, sofre de cancro de pulmão.
O protagonista de "Butch Cassidy" está doente há vários meses e, em Maio, teve de afastar-se da realização do filme "Ratos e Homens", baseado no livro de John Steinbeck. Sabia-se que Newman não estava nada bem, mas só agora foi revelada a natureza da doença. Segundo várias publicações dos Estados Unidos, o actor, que fumou imenso durante quase toda a vida, foi diagnosticado com cancro de pulmão no hospital Sloan-Kettering Cancer Centre, em Nova Iorque, a poucas horas de distância de sua casa em Connecticut, onde mora com sua esposa, Joanne Woodward. Em Março, o próprio Newman desmentiu rumores de que estaria com cancro, depois de ter faltado a uma festa de beneficência da instituição infantil Hole in The Wall Gang, criada por ele. E um pouco mais tarde, cancelou uma aparição no programa televisivo "The Late Show With David Letterman". Um porta-voz ainda tentou evitar a publicação da infausta notícia, dizendo que Paul Newman só tinha ido ao hospital para "receber tratamento para pé de atleta e queda de cabelo", mas o pior confirmou-se.

Quem está a reagir bem aos tratamentos é Patrick Swayze, que luta contra um cancro no pâncreas .O actor, de 55 anos, teve mesmo autorização dos médicos para regressar ao trabalho. Ele vai começar a filmar uma série televisiva dramática ("The Beast"), em que desempenha o papel de agente do FBI.A doença de Swayze foi diagnosticada em Janeiro último. Desde então, o actor tem sido submetido a tratamentos radicais de quimioterapia e medicação com substâncias ainda pouco experimentadas.

Who is the strongest?


They say that iron is strong,
But fire melts iron.

They say that fire is strong,
But water puts out fire.

They say that water is strong,
But the wind spreads water.

They say that wind is strong,
But the mountain spreads the wind.

They say that the mountain is strong,
But man fells the mountain.

They say that man is strong,
But death fells man.

They say that death is strong,
But JESUS won death.


Hello, Patrick!
I live in Brazil, at São Paulo city.
I have very touched as soon as I knew of the dramatic situation that you are facing, because I know exactly what you’re living.
I’ve already lived a similar phase in my life: I’ve already been at “death row” for four times.
The first was in a serious car crash, which let me serious sequels. The second was a throat cancer. The third was a violent intestine cancer when I was until terminal stage. The fourth was a sharp pancreatitis, causing the lost in my small intestine of 30%.
In the middle of all this facts, I didn’t need more treatment, but a miracle. And through these pains, somebody introduced me who could make these miracles that I needed. I met Jesus who is doctor by excellence, and His specializations are all…
By His supreme power I had all healings that I needed, beyond physical healings, also my soul healing.
Since then I became a dedicated evangelic woman and I have a voluntary mission of pray for people. Based on Matthew 10.8, in 2 Kings chapter 5, a history is told of Naaman, which is very similar to yours because of determination, heroism, finally, by his values.
Naaman was gallant however leper. He was undeceived by medicine, not by God.
As well as Elisha introduced Jehovah to Naaman I want to introduce Him to you too, and I hope there’s the same credibility by you that Naaman had, and the result will surprise you, as happened to Naaman. Verses 14,17,18,19.
I’ll be waiting for new notices, caused effects for this faith message that is being administered to your brave heart. Just believe and pray to Elisha’s God: you must remember of Good. Solomon King, isn’t it? 1 Kings 8:22,66. He talked to this same God too.
One may know that you must pray for your cause because your part is indispensable. Don’t you forget that is Lord of Elisha or Solomon.
From the moment that I knew of the dramatic problem, I and the church that I belong to are engaged to pray with vehemence for you.
I want you to know too that we aren’t doing this to promote ourselves through you, ‘cause the church that I belong to isn’t in media.
Meditate in Isaiah 38:5, John 14:06, Matthew 21:22.
A huge hug and remember that you can count with my prayers.
Van
