Prayer for my Mom who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer

A litle history....my Mom was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma(non invasive) in 2006. She had a mastectomy and did't require any chemo or radiation at that time as the pathology report didn't indicate that she needed any furtther treatment.(Thanks be to God)
In Dec. 2009 she felt three lumps which were investigated and then operated on to remove as they were found to be cancerous. The surgeon and her family Dr. felt that it was early stages as it was in 2006. The surgeon called her at home to tell her that they got it all, and that the margins were clear. We were all relived and again gave thanks go God. On Feb. 11th my Mom met with the Oncologist to go over the pathology report, and was told that she now has a different form of breast cancer (HER2+) which will require 15 months of chemotherapy. We are devastated with this news, and are grasping tightly to our faith that God will see her through the arduous journey ahead.
My prayer is that she is able to withstand all the treatment that lies ahead, that the Dr's and nurses perform the chemo to their greatest ability, and that we can beat this horrible disease.
