Elderly Woman With Lung Cancer

I am asking you to please pray for an elderly woman that I may be helping to care for in the next 4-6 weeks. Her family just recently discovered that she has lung cancer which is 99% terminal and the woman is very lucid and aware of what is happening. I just spoke on the phone to her daughter-in-law because they asked my school if they had any nursing students who were interested in helping to take care of the patient, so I contacted them. Right now, the woman is doing pretty well, but the doctors say it is only a matter of weeks before she will need more intensive care. She has a caregiver (who is not a nurse) who is helping her out and Community Hospice taking care of her medical needs, but since I am a certified nursing assistant, the daughter-in-law and son will be contacting me in a month or so to bring me in as needed for other care. They both want her to go in her sleep peacefully, but that almost never happens, especially with lung cancer since the patient loses lung function and suffocates because of accumulating fluid. So I am asking God for a miracle for this family in hopes that their request will be granted, but God's will be done above all.
