Just a quick post to inform everyone that Shawndra is back in the hospital (St. Joseph's on State Line). Please, no visitors yet.
Her bowels just aren't cooperating these days. Fortunately, with an NG and lots of fluids, output via the ostomy has increased.
Although it's never fun being here, it was nice to see the familiar faces of the 4 North Oncology "crew" yesterday. Many of them remember Shawndra's stay from two years ago, and as recently as a few months ago.
Thank you for your prayers.
- Doug
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello all -
Shawndra requested that I send another email out asking for prayers. The surgeon spoke to her this morning and said that there was not much she can do at this point. They suggested speaking with hospice at this point. It sounds like they will be putting in a pic line for feeding in order for Shawndra to get nutrition. As you can imagine, Shawndra is very emotional at this point, as are all of us. I tell you, I must be an excellent actress. I sit here and cry finding out this news and emailing you, then I turn around and treat my patients with a smile and joke with them. Truly a roller coaster of emotions! I would guess that they want no visitors at this point, but please call first and find out from Shawndra and Doug what they are ok with.
So, the point of this email is to request prayers. Pray for peace for Shawndra, for comfort, for salvation. Lift Shawndra, Doug, mom, dad, Ella, and our entire family in prayer. We all need lots of thoughts and prayers for strength, peace, comfort, and love.
I will be holding on to the following verse:
Psalm 18:2-3 The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;
my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.
He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise,
and I am saved from my enemies.
Thank you all!
Andrea

Praying for all of you--Jill (Rilinger) V.
May this be a brief, but effective visit to St Joe. Quick in, quick out......literally! You are in our prayers daily, that peace comfort and healing are there for you soon.
Shawndra,
Cindy and I are praying for you to have a quick recovery! The verse of the day that came to my email this morning was from Psalm 9:10. It says "Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you." We claim God's power and authority in this situation that you will be home soon with cooperating bowels.
We're also praying God continues to give Doug and both your families strength and encouragement during this time. Please let us know if you need anything at all!
Hugs!
Kellista

Dearest friends
I keep having you in my prayers.
I tell many of my beloved ones about you and I' sure they pray for you, too.
I pray you can feel the love of all around you to give you the strength, keep your faith up, and even more now, as you send out such hard news to handle, because God is with you all.
Take good care of yourselves.
We wish from the deepest of our heart, she'll soon be able to make it home.
Let's believe in it.
Love,

There are no words to let you all know how I feel. Know you are all in my prayers for peace, comfort and strength. We love you all!
May my prayers and good wishes be more comfort than my words. I will continue to pray for a miracle for you all.
Shawndra's life has already been a miracle. She has touched more lives than she understands, and helped more people than she can imagine.
Your friend in prayer,
jg in ca
Shawndra- I have followed your blog since it started, but have never commented. Your life and blog have been such an inspiration to my friends, family, and me. It has helped me keep life in perspective. It has taught me and helped me realize what is really important in life- true friends and family. I ran a marathon and thought about you the entire time as inspiration. It is with a heavey heart that I read this post, and I pray for a miracle. Every week I attend mass, and I light a candle for you and all who are fighting this battle with cancer. You have affected my life in the past two years more than you can ever imagine which I deeply thank you for. I think about you constantly and thank God for you and all you have done for me. I am constantly praying for you and your family during this difficult time. God bless all of you. Also, I have so enjoyed hearing about Ella. She is so adorable! Angie
We are so sorry. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Marny
Dear Shawndra, I've only known you through this blog for awhile now but you have touched me greatly. I check on you & pray for you & your beautiful family, daily.
You are always in my thoughts & prayers. Keep your spirits high & trust in God.
You are a beautiful & amazing woman & mother.
Thank you for the update, Doug & Andrea. PLEASE keep us posted on our inspirational friend. God Bless you all, Vickie Wieberg in J.C., Mo.
Shawndra -
I have never posted but check in on you daily (since the Jennifer Ireland blog led me here). I felt like it was time to let you know that I, another interent follower, pray for you daily and will continue to do so, today & always!
Much Love & God Bless,
Elizabeth
My thoughts a profound prayers are with you in this difficult time. May you find peace and comfort in all the love and support that surrounds you.
God bless you all...
Sandi (Omaha)
Shawndra,
I am so deeply saddened that you are going through all of this. I think of you and pray for you everyday. Like others who have commented, you have touched my life so much since I started following your blog. You have inspired me to be strong and optimistic when things get tough. You are an amazing human being!! You have a gift for writing. Your spirit always shines through.
I pray God will lift you and your family up during this difficult time and give you stength, peace and comfort. I pray that God surrounds you with his heavenly angels.
Shawndra,
I am thinking about you all the time and am praying hard. I want you to know that I think you are an amazing woman. All through college, you were sweet, kind, and funny. I never saw you without a smile on your face. (Unless you were studying for some impossibly hard class that I as an English major would never dream of taking! Ha!) Your resilience is inspirational. As even through all this, you have been kind, gracious, determined, and faithful - still with a smile on your face. That's how I picture you now - with your beautiful smile and am hearing that cute laugh of yours. :-) This is so not fair that you are going through this and I wish I could take some of the pain away from you. Please know that I am here for you, praying hard for you and your family. Love, Hillary
Oh no, not Shawndra. I feel this world cannot bear to lose such a wonderful soul. We need you, Shawndra. We need your sweet love. My heart is breaking at the thought of your not making it out to Omaha to see Dr. Foster, who seems to be such a miracle worker. Let us hope.... Love, Joyce
It is with a heavy heart that I read this latest email. I will continue to pray and hope for the miracle that Shawndra so deserves. You have touched my life Shawndra.
I have read your blog from day one and although we have never met, I feel as though I know you. You are one special gal and I know you have changed a lot of people through this blog and brought awareness to your disease as well and this was much needed. Thank you so much for taking us on this journey with you and allowing us to pray and support you!
Your faithful prayer warrior always!
Deb (LSMO)
Wishing you all the best during this difficult time. Thinking of you, Shawndra!

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Shawndra. I hope you get well soon. Geoff
On behalf of the entire team at Wellsphere I would like to join with a prayer for Shawndra for a very quick recovery. We are looking forward to reading more wonderful posts from you that have been an inspiration and encouragement to so many other people who have read your blog.
Praying so hard for all of you. Shawndra, you are so loved. Even by those of us who don't even "know" you. God is there. Even in our pain. He will see us through all of life's joys and pain.
Shawndra,
Many prayers are being said tonight for you & your family.
Jennifer Teegarden
I've got you in my prayers Shawndra. If you need anything...never hesitate to send an email. I'm just a quick trip down 435. Bummer you aren't at my hospital :-(
Lisa
I learned of your site some time ago from Jennifer Ireland's site, and I've never commented but I've followed your progress. I just wanted to finally let you know how much I think of you and your family. I admire your strength and endurance through everything you've been through and I want you to know you have been an inspriation to me.
My first post here...Internet-shy. But I read often and you've been in my thoughts and prayers daily. I am always inspired by your courage and your spunk. =) May you, your dear parents and all your family find strength, comfort and peace within.
With love...
Praying and thinking of your whole family!
Thinking of you this morning and hoping you had a quiet, restful night.
We are off to church where you and your family will be at the front of my mind and in the center of my heart.
Love to you, now and always!
Brandi aka Betty Boop :)
You need to know, Shawndra, how much you have helped people like me, 30 years older than you, who, too, have fought a cancer battle.Whenever I am thinking I need a "pity party", I just go to my computer and read your blog. I always feel so uplifted by your humor, your strenghth, your faith, and your drive. I know you will not give up unless you have no choice. May God bless your beautiful little daughter, husband, and your entire family. Andrea, thanks for the update. Having a sister who I adore, I can only imagine what you are going through. We all love Shawndra even though most of us have not met her. I did, however, have the pleasure of meeting her once at KCCC-South. She is one of a kind! Blessings.
Of course your entire family is in our prayers, and we'll get our Ascension family to pray as well. Try to remember God loves us and has a plan for us and He will take care of us if we put ourselves in His hands. Please let us know if you need anything.
Love, the Cures
Shawndra and Doug
Praying for you. Please let us know how Shawndra is doing. May the lord comfort and keep you at peace at this difficult time.
Like many others here, I have read your blog but never commented. You are and have truly been an inspiration to so many. You are in my prayers daily, as are your family.
Lisa Sickles
I seldom comment but always read and you are always in my prayers. I pray a speedy recovery for you. God Bless You!!!
Shawndra,
I am still praying for the miracle that you so deserve. Never give up hope. You and your family are always in my prayers.
With love and hope,
Wendy
As you look through the list of folks that are reading your blog and answering your call for prayer, you know you are loved! You are an amazing woman, a wonderful wife and mother, and we are all praying for healing.
We love you,
Terry and Dell
Another lurker...reading but not commenting...until now. I pray for you and your family only blessings of hope and miracles.
Look to the Lord for strength and comfort, today and for all eternity.
Shawndra... you are a very special person who has blessed each and every one of us who reads your blog.
God bless you and your lovely family!
Sending prayers and hugs from Minnesota. Love you, Dawner
Shawndra and family... you have been in my thoughts constantly. I am praying for you my dear.
My love, Mandy (Hamlin) Featherston
Shawndra,
Thank you for having Doug call me to come up yesterday. Spending time with you is the best gift anyone could receive this holiday season.
I had fun looking over all of those old photos and just talking. The shampoo cap was quite an experience, as well. I love that the doc on call thought you were busting out a new fashion!
You will forever be in my heart and on my mind. I love you.
Dustin
Shawndra, Doug, Ella and Family,
May each of you find strength and courage through this difficult fight. You're in my prayers.
Faith, Hope and Peace to each of you.

I am so sad, you have been through so much and you are such a brave precious woman. I am a better person because I come here and am blessed by you.
May God touch your body and bless you and your dear family.
Love and praying for you in Texas.
Blessings precious Shawndra
Shawndra, I hope you don't mind I posted on the CC that you need prayers. I am praying so hard for you. You are so loved by so many.
Shawndra,

Rebecca
Shwandra, Doug, Ella, Andrea, Carol, Gary
I've been searching for news since Doug and Andrea wrote last.
We want you to know how much we care andlove you all.
If Dustin went over to spend some time with Shwandra, that's great.
We have you all in our prayers and our hearts.
Take good care of yourselves.
God is with you all.
Love,
Roswita
Dearest Shawndra and Family,
Words cannot express how saddened I am at this news. I continue to pray that your miracle comes, as your family is most deserving of this! May God grant you comfort and peace while your prayer warriors are hard at work!
My heart and prayers are with you all!
Terra Shover
Shawndra, as somebody who only "knows" you from the internet I felt I needed to tell you how much I admire you. Throughout this battle you have kept your sense of humor and have been able to live your life with this disease, instead of letting this disease live your life for you. And through all of this I'm so happy that you have found the Lord. I know your peace, strength and grace will come to you through Him. I will pray for you and your family. And I will pray for that miracle of healing. I know firsthand somebody who wasn't able to be helped by conventional medicine but began an experimental trial and is still here! Take care! Joan
Shawndra,
I have never commented but have followed your blog from the beginning. You are and have always been in my prayers. I am praying you a speedy recovery rom this latest set back so you can come home to spend Christmas with Ella and Doug.
Good morning Shawndra,
I awoke early and God vividly has put you on my heart. I have been praying for you this past hour, that the Lord would give you a peace that would pass all of your understanding. A peace that only HE can give as a gift to one of his children.
I pray that you will have that kind of peace and can reach out for it, and it brings comfort.
Doug I pray for you and Ella as well, may you reach out for that peace as well. I am praying for your whole extended family. Shawndra you have touched me more than you will know. You are such a precious soul.
I pray that you have the assurance in Christ, so he will give you comfort.
Shawndra,
This post comes as a complete shock!! I pray that God will give your body the strength to heal and your mind the peace that it needs to get through this difficult situation. I am praying that you are home for Christmas to celebrate the holiday with your sweet little girl..
Shawndra and all of the Family,
Prayers and hugs coming to you from Minnesota. Shawndra, you have been such a trooper. God is waiting for you with open arms and we are all holding you in our arms until you reach him.
Love to you all,
Julie (jill's mom)
Lifting you up in prayers Shawndra. May you and your family find strength in the Lord.
I have been following your blog for a long time now, but have never commented. You are a woman of amazing strength, and I pray for you daily. I have been checking the blog constantly for an update, and I will continue to pray that God wrap you in his loving arms, as he is always at your side.
In thought and prayer,
Kilee Sanders

God Bless You & your family Shawndra as you face this very difficult time...remember HE is with you always! I don't comment but always read...just want to make sure you know how much of an impact you are making. You are such a strong, brilliant, caring person...you are touching so many lives by sharing your own. I can only strive to be as courageous, thoughtful, and faithful as you. Thank you so much Shawndra for being you!! You always take care of everyone else...take this time to focus on you and your family. Prayers are out in full force for you!
Tanya - Omaha, NE
I will expect miricales as we have for our friend Steph Vest. May you be surrounded by family and feel all the love and prayers coming in for you. Prayers from St. Louis
Dear Shawndra, Checking on you again this Monday morning as I have been all; weekend.
I have been praying for you & thinking of you & it sounds like you are doing o.k. from your friend, Dustins comment. That helps.
I hope to hear something from you soon. Just know you are in so many thoughts & prayers. With love, Vickie Kruse Wieberg`
Shawndra,
Although I don't make my presence known very often, I am and have been here. I truly don't even know what to say. It's not fair. I want so badly for you to be healed of this disease. I will continue to pray for you and your family and for a miracle. I know God can do it. I hope you are well enough to go home soon and spend time with your precious Ella.
Still here and praying,
Christy Harrell
Shawndra, your blog helped convince me to have a colonoscopy for my own issues. We've never met, but I am thankful to have discovered your blog. Your positive attitude through adversity has been an inspiration to me to keep my own attitude in check. My prayers are with you and your family.
JP in Arkansas
Just wanted you to know about Stephanie Vest.

Kitty
Dear Shawndra,
We are praying extra hard for you these days. May you find comfort and peace in those around you. Please know you are loved by many and an inspiration to us all.
With all our love,
Debby, Mark, Katie and Anna
I'm another who reads about you all the time, but doesn't comment. It's strange, because I know that we would get along great if we "knew" each other...but I only know you through this blog! Your story has touched me so much. I have a son who is Ella's age, and my heart just breaks for you right now. I do pray that you will know the peace that only Jesus can bring you. At this, the most difficult, unfair, heart wrenching time of your life, I hope you know how much the Lord loves you, and wants to bring you peace by trusting in Him. Even though I live halfway across the country, I hope you can feel the prayers and love I send you! God Bless you Shawndra, and your family too.
I'm praying for you guys tonight. Please please please let this pass. :(
Hi Shawndra: Just checking in on you this Monday Afternoon hoping for a positive update. I continue to pray for you and your family. God Bless You! Jodi from Lawrence, KS.
Shawndra,
I just wanted to send you a message to let you know that you and your family are in my prayers. Jessica forwarded me the update on your blog. I had not heard in awhile how you were doing (guess that's because I have been gone from Mercy for over a year). But I remember when Angie H. would give us updates. I just wanted you to know that I am thinking of you and praying for you. You are a very sweet, genuine, caring, patient and loving person. I had to smile when I thought of you being patient...Remember way back when you were precepting me as a care assistant...wow that seems so long ago. P.S. I can't believe how big Ella has gotten. She is beautiful! Just like her mother. God Bless You! Nesha
Shawndra, Doug, Ella, Andrea, the Beauchamp and Turner families, and those who love you all:
Know that you are in the prayers and thoughts of more people than you can imagine. May our energy and prayers surround you during this unimaginably difficult time.
You are not alone.
xxxxx
Lifting your entire family up in prayer.
Shawndra,
I do not know you, and I am not normally a person who prays, but I am praying hard for you and your family. I cannot imagine how difficult these times must be but I pray you make it through and are able to spread your word and touch more people! But I hope that you know you have touched my life in ways you cannot imagine. Thank you for your blog and thank you for opening my eyes to why we should enjoy life and embrace what we have been given! Thank you so much!
I have been asking all of my friends and my family to add you to their prayers. We pray for you and think of you and your family all the time. You now have some more prayers coming to you from Colorado. Someone on your blog commented this and I think they are right, expect miracles, just like with Stephanie. May God comfort you and bring you and your family peace.
Love and prayers from Colorado,
Susan(Beaver), Ken, Rachel and Jake McRae
Shawndra - I've been following your blog since shortly after my husband was diagnosed with CC but have only commented maybe once before.....I want you to know that my prayers have been and will continue to be with you, Doug, and that precious little doll of yours. I hope you do not mind that I ask for prayers on my blog as well.
I've been so impressed at your strength as you've battled this disease and can only hope that it is helping you today.
Just wanted to say I'm thinking about you guys. I check about 30 times a day for an update. You're in my prayers. We'll keep pounding on Heaven's doors for a miracle.
Much Love,
Astraea
God is with you. Prayers are being said for you. Love is all around you. May God bless you and your wonderful family.

I pray that you will hold fast to them and know that so many people are thinking of you and praying for you. I send you hugs from San Diego,

Praying Hard for you Shawndra and for your family. May God Bless you with the Strength you need at this time.
Hospice is SUCH a wonderful assistance for families. It provides so much for so many. I could have NEVER gotten through a recent death of my loved one without the CARE and Compassion from Vitas Hospice. It is a WONDERFUL service and I pray for many blessings for you at this time.
