About MaryO

Cushing's and kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma) patient, founder, owner and webmaster of Cushing's Help and Support, web designer, piano teacher and mom. I am a Cushing's patient who has dealt with Cushing's symptoms since 1983 (or earlier) and the aftereffects of pituitary surgery since 1987. Because I had very little support for my symptoms, diagnosis and surgery, I decided to try to make things a little better for other patients and started a support site called Cushing's Help and Support in 2000. The site has grown to astronomical numbers. This disease isn't as rare as doctors have told us! In 2006, I was also diagnosed with kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma). My left kidney and adrenal gland were removed. Having an adrenal gland removed complicates my post-Cushing's symptoms. I am not planning to have any more rare and unusual diseases. My entire bio to date can be found here: http://www.cushings-help.com/maryos_story.htm But, enough of that - it's not always about Cushing's, or even Cancer. This one is about Life!

Don’t Forget to Change Your Clocks Tonight!

time-fall

 

Daylight Saving Time 2013 ends for the year so the clock change for the fall takes place Sunday morning at 2 a.m. on Nov. 3. Daylight Saving Time 2013 seems overdue, but it is the same time each year. The clock changes on the first Sunday in November. Daylight Saving Time starts on the second Sunday in March each year.

 

And, time to sing again…

Sunday November 3 at Pender

Sermon on November 3 – By the Mercy of God – I Timothy 1:12-17

At times we are our own worst enemy. We have 20/20 hindsight and it seems to remember the bad things we have done.However, the Good News reminds us that Christ’s good thing is more powerful than our bad thing and that means we are forgiven and serving out of God’s mercy.

“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength,that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to his service.” (1 Timothy 1:12)

Sing ‘n Celebrate ~ November 3 at 7:00 PM

snc-heal

 

 

 

Pain and problems are opportunities to demonstrate our trust in God and also our trust in the fervent prayers of healing prayed on our behalf by our pastors and fellow members of the laity.

We hope you will reserve this evening for hearing personal stories of healing from members of your body of Christ.

Pastor Kenny’s Time For Healing will conclude this service.
