Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Hi Jeana, I has seen this a few times before and looked at www.snopes.com and here is what I found. There are a few versions of this that have gone around in the past. Hugs marianne ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Claim: Hogman, a 32-year-old woman, is battling cervical cancer. Status: Outdated. Example: [Collected on the Internet, 2001] My name is " Nick " Hogman, Some of you receiving know me, some do not. My wife is 32 years old and has just been diagnosed 3 days ago with stage 4 cervical cancer and her chances for survival are very slim. She was pregnant with our second child and had miscarried at 5 months and now we know why. This is a request for you to forward this email to everyone you know asking for prayer. The more people that pray for her to be healed the better. Pray and forward. It only takes a second to hit forward. Please do it and don't delete this, your prayer will save her life. Please pray and ask everyone you know to pray for the HEALING of , removal of all cancer in her body so she may enjoy all that life has to offer, and to continue to be the wonderful mother to our 5 year old son . The power of Prayer is unsurpassed. I want the whole world to have her in their prayers the next few weeks. God will hear our cry. Please do not be offended by my plea. This is only a request for your help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this and helping with our quest for healing, no words can express how much power we have when we do a little extra to come together. Regards, 's in love husband. Origins: In June 2001, and Hogman of Bedford, Texas, had just endured the loss of the baby had been carrying when a pulmonary embolus took her back into the hospital. It was then they learned had cancer and that the outlook was not good. was moved to e-mail his plea for prayers to a handful of friends and to ask them to forward it to others. Such was the power of the Internet that it was only a matter of days before his heartfelt request had spread far and wide. Hogman was battling cancer and had a grim road ahead of her as she began chemo and radiation treatments. said of his wife, " She has endured so much and is the strongest person I have ever met, " and requested that people help her to be stronger by finding some time in their busy schedules to direct good thoughts her way. According to a note from 's husband, as of February 2002, 's cancer was in remission. Although her oncologist warned that was at risk for reoccurrence of the cancer, at of this writing Mrs. Hogman remains free of the disease. As so often happens in cyberspace, however, the oudated message lives on - circulating in countless versions with all sorts of permutations in the spelling of the Hogmans' surname and the location of their home town. Some examples gleaned from the introductory paragraphs of this message over the years: a.. This is a prayer request from a young man that works at the First Union bank in Orlando, FL. Everyone please pray for his wife. b.. My name is Hogan, some of you receiving know me, some do not. I live in Eden, North Carolina and I attend the Osborne Baptist Church. c.. My name is Hogan, member of Christ the King parish in Topeka d.. This is a request for prayer from a family at Riverpointe Church in Sugar Land, TX. My name is Hogan, Some of you receiving this know me, some do not. e.. This plea for prayer comes from a young man at the North Point Community Church of Atlanta, GA. f.. This is a prayer request from a guy that works at First Union in Walton County, GA Update: The latest version, which hit the Internet in February 2004, again misspelled the couple's last name as 'Hogan' and - after it was forwarded by a U.S. soldier serving in Iraq - was erroneously assumed to refer to a husband serving overseas while his wife battled cancer at home: Subject: Fw: Prayer Request PLEASE read this.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I have added your sister to my prayers. She will not accept help until she is ready. And she won't be ready in anybody else's time but Gods time. All you can do is tell her you love her, and pray for her. lots of love and prayers, Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is hang in there it is worth it all. : ) I personally have gone through a great deal with my fight and I askthat you would pray for me because I have to go through some morechemotherapy. I lost my job due to my health and high cost of healthcost. I am fighting to get my job back with my counselor help becausethey claim I can't handle it physically or emotionally which is nottrue. I had to go through a five hour test to see if I am emotional,mentally able to still be a minister. The headquarters told me onething and my counselor received a report that stated the opposite andhe said I will fight for you if this is what you want so we are goingto fight it might take a year for me to win so for now I am justtaking it easy and enjoying this time off. Since I have beenterminated I have lost all of my medical insurance as well. My Momwas told of a cancer center somewhere in Ohio who helps cancerpatience at no to little cost to them especially if they have noinsurance so we are on our way there tomorrow. On top of that this week I am seeing a lawyer about bankruptcy since Iam not longer receiving a pay check there is no way I can pay my billsmost of the are medical. I hate doing this I feel very strongly thatas Christians we need to pay our debts but I have no choice. So, I am going through a great deal besides helping with my GrandmaDementia and I have been volunteering at the hospital once a week. Iam trying to stay busy so I am not always thinking about my problemsinstead I am helping others. That is a positive thing and has beenhelping me greatly.Also, keep my family in prayer on the 24th of this month when my Momhas her surgery. As you can see between things going on with mycancer, medical cost of medication and finance problems we have a lotgoing on in our family. But, we will make it God will help us throughthis time.I wish this country would get help for those who live with theirfamilies. I can't seem to find any help at all medically or with SSIbecause they look at the income of the household and because I livewith my parents I don't qualify because of their income. There issomething greatly wrong with this country in my opinion if I lived onthe streets I could get help some day I feel like giving up but Idon't. My loving parents tell me every day Ronda we will make it Ithank God for my loving parents. I am still hunting for help with mymedication. Any one has any suggestions.Keep me in your prayers as I start Chemotherapy once again I don'tknow if it will be aggressive or just the regular. I will have mylaptop with me and I will let nne know what is going on so shecan update you on what is going on with me. Each of you are in myprayers specially if you are going through chemo, surgery or any otherproblems like finances or if you are doing well I pray for each of youdaily. Keep your chin up and keep fighting.Hugs,Ronda__________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My loving parents tell me every day Ronda we will make it Ithank God for my loving parents. I am still hunting for help with mymedication. Any one has any suggestions.Keep me in your prayers as I start Chemotherapy once again I don'tknow if it will be aggressive or just the regular. I will have mylaptop with me and I will let nne know what is going on so shecan update you on what is going on with me. Each of you are in myprayers specially if you are going through chemo, surgery or any otherproblems like finances or if you are doing well I pray for each of youdaily. Keep your chin up and keep fighting.Hugs,Ronda__________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is hang in there it is worth it all. : ) I personally have gone through a great deal with my fight and I askthat you would pray for me because I have to go through some morechemotherapy. I lost my job due to my health and high cost of healthcost. I am fighting to get my job back with my counselor help becausethey claim I can't handle it physically or emotionally which is nottrue. I had to go through a five hour test to see if I am emotional,mentally able to still be a minister. The headquarters told me onething and my counselor received a report that stated the opposite andhe said I will fight for you if this is what you want so we are goingto fight it might take a year for me to win so for now I am justtaking it easy and enjoying this time off.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Hi Group I have an urgent prayer request for my best friend's granddaughter. Kate is 1 year old and started have projectile vomiting and then having a seizure. Her parents had to rush her to the ER tonight while they were eating dinner. This also happened yesterday when the dad was driving her to daycare. Thank you for your prayers.
