Introduction To My Niece Lora Kesselhon!
My Niece Lora Kesselhon During Her Treatment For Cancer!
One of my favorite nieces, Lora Kesselhon, shares her story from February of 2008; She was diagnosed with CNS lymphoma, a very rare cancer of her brain. Lora was also 23 weeks pregnant then, and her baby (Ruth) was forced to be born premature, but God still was in control, and to this day, Lora and Ruth are both doing wonderfully, praise God!
They both went through a lot. Thank God that everything worked out. I am convinced in my heart that all the prayers people were praying for Lora, Ruth, and the family were answered. I praise God that they both come out of it in good shape with complete recovery. Lora went through a lot, yet her family and friends stuck close to her all the way! God was watching over them both. Lora had a lot of people praying for them, including me.

The Story Began In February 2008! ~ Lora Kesselhon
She was diagnosed with CNS lymphoma, a rare blood cancer in her brain and spine.
She was also 23 weeks pregnant when this all began.

Five years later, listen to Lora tell her amazing and miraculous story in the videos below to learn about her victory over cancer.

Lora Kesselhon And Her Miracle Recovery From Cancer!
Lora Kesselhorn was alone when she went through quite a bit! But with God’s help, Lora made it through.
There are many things that I am so proud of Lora for, but the biggest thing that stands out in my mind is her trust in God. Despite everything she went through, she stood firm in her faith!
With having two kids and being 23 weeks pregnant while having this dangerous type of cancer, she seemed to have absolute peace about everything Philippians 4:7 that was going on with her.
I am not saying that her cancer was not painful or scary, but her faith in God Proverbs 3:3 was greater than her fear and pain.
It is always good to get together for family gatherings to talk about God and spiritual matters with Lora and me.
To me, she and my great-niece Ruth are both miracles from God. God has plans for their lives. I am sure that Lora knows that she has been blessed.
Ryan was very instrumental in Lora’s recovery by taking care of Havala and Maren while Lora was in the hospital. Their faith and love have kept them strong! ~ Uncle Bill Greguska

Lora Kesselhon Story Part 4
Journal Entry By Lora Kesselhon — Feb 9, 2013
“I love the Lord, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy. Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live. The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow. Then I called on the name of the Lord: “O Lord, save me!”
