So, I recently was told that my grandmother (that I am extremely close to) has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. They do not know what stage it is in, but she is going for major surgery next Friday. She already has diabetes, which is definately not helping. She was diagnosed four days ago (Monday), which was the same day that I woke up and thought "What if I lose my grandmother? What if she gets cancer?". And, as previously stated, I learned of this today. I have also experienced unknown, dull feelings of uncomfort in the pancreatic area this week. It really kinda makes me want to yell at myself for not trusting my intuition, which as we all know, is meant to be trusted.
So, I guess I'm just really asking for help and support, as well as some prayers. I realize this is not a prayer request website, but at this point, does it really matter? Also, I've been trying to tell her that I am a Hellenic Polytheist and that I practice witchcraft and shamanism (no drugs here, however, I think I'll skip those.) and now feel like it would just add to her burdens because she is Christian, and she has this solid idea of who I am, so much so that when I told her two years ago that I was "not Christian", she said "Yes, you are." Do any of you have advice, or even first-hand experience of this kind of scenario? And if you have any advice of magical ways to help out, besides lighting a candle and doing a simple healing spell, it would be much appreciated. The whole me telling her I am a Hellenist part plays in out of respect and morals, where many people (including myself) feel obliged to tell someone if we are doing a spell on them, at least healing-wise. (Because telling someone you are going to curse them isn't usually a smart idea.)

Again, help is greatly appreciated.

Google "Soursop" It grows in Jamaica and I have heard Google things about it from a Jamaican man. No personal experience with it. Good luck. I'm sorry I am so late with this and hopefully not too late. Another idea is to try Lucky Mojo. I don't think granny would mind magic in the form of proverbs. She doesn't have to know everything about it. I think you can also use catholic saint statues to represent a god/goddess.

Peace


I just checked out that "lucky mojo" site. If cheesyness were a substitute for authenticity, Vagrant Dreamer might have been up for some serious competition in the talisman retail business. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Expect nothing, or you will get caught up in the future and not pay attention to the present. Just do the practice diligently, do it because you enjoy it, do it because you believe in it. Don't wait for results, don't wait for it to happen.
