   I am living in Northern Ontario, Canada.  Three weeks ago, my world came   
   crashing down on me.  My four year old grandson has been diagnosed with   
   cancer.  He has a non-Hodkins form of lymphoma, called Burkitt's   
   Lymphoma.  His progrnosis is supposed to be good, as it was caught at   
   stage one, meaning it hasn't spread.  He is undergoing chemo and has to   
   take prednisone, a steroid.   
   They say he can live a normal life and his chances of survival are good.   
     All of which makes me happy.   
   However, because of his treatment, his immune system is compromised.  A   
   cold could be a disater for him and we all seem to be getting into one   
   of the worst flu seasons in a very long time, which could prove fatal to   
   my grandson.  He was be in a compromised condition even after chemo's   
   over with, he has to take septra for 6 months.   
   I'm the only Pagan in the family and most of my family doesn't even know   
   that.  Suffice to say, asking God to help isn't in my cards.  Can anyone   
   suggest a simple healing ritual that I can use on a regular basis, to   
   ask for my grandson to be well, stay well and remain well?   
   This is the most important thing in my life.  Before it happened, the   
   most important thing was my planned trip to Great Britain and Ireland in   
   May.  I gave that up, asking the Lord/Lady to just make my grandson   
   well.  Nothing is more important than that.  My family doesn't share my   
   beliefs and i respect that, but would like to have my own private   
   "thing" that I can do to ask for his health.  Suggestions?
