    Your situation does not sound good, but sometimes God works when we have no other place to turn. As you said in your opening, you need a miracle. You are now in a place to receive one. I will pray that God will undertake for you just as he has done for so many. He is no respecter of persons. So you can pray with confidence.

    Lord, please help this couple to face the unthinkable with confidence in you, to recognize that they are walking this lonesome valley with a Friend; One who will never leave nor forsake those who carry Your name. May Your Holy Spirit give them peace in the midst of this storm and may they take comfort in each other and in You. And, Lord, please send some of your saints to encourage them and minister to them. In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

    Life is not waiting for the storm to subside, life is about learning to dance in the rain.

    Sometimes miracles happen just when we need em most.
    Remember the "Footprints" poem? "That is when I carried you."
    Prayers lifted up for you and your wife.
    Keep the faith.
    I came into this world kicking, screaming, and covered in someone elses blood. I plan to go out the same way.

    Bean,

    Yes prayers help, no man has the final say.

    Meanwhile, look into Hospice care, see what might be available.

    When my father in law lived with us (he has Alzheimer's) hospice was truly a God send. I don't know how we could have managed for that 7 months without them.

    Superfly has it right. Cancer is curable. It is not a death sentence. Do what you have to do, and worry about the money later, it will be there when you need it.
    Most importantly, pray. Pray like David did in the psalms. Dont give God any canned, sweet, smell-good/feel-good prayers. Tell Him what you want and open up to Him. God wants truth, and He loves it more than anything. Pray truthfully, and consistently, and don't give up! There is such a thing as negative faith. Just take a look in scripture and see how good men pray when they are backed against a wall! Believe that God can heal, respect the fact that its His choice, and beg Him! I have been where you are, to a lesser extent, and God revealed Himself to me in more powerful ways than I could have imagined. I was visited in my dreams by the Lord. It was not sweet, it was scary, and humbling. I could not bring myself to look at Him, I only saw His feet, and it was terrifying and safe both at the same time. I know that He is real, and His power and motives are so much bigger than I ever could have believed. I am not a fruit-loop and I am a very practical sort of person, so this is not me pushing some religious mumbo-jumbo, but this really happened to me. I'm just trying to help.
    I am praying for you my friend.
    Precision in the wrong place is only a placebo.

    AMEN to that Bret! My girfriend's grandfather was given 6 months to live over 2 years ago due to the cancer throughout his body, but the shear willpower within that man to see one of his beloved granddaughters have his first great-grandchild has kept him going through it all, anything as simple as a pothole in the road is enough to break ribs from the seatbelt in a car as his body continues to shut down on him but he simply has REFUSED to let it beat him. Through constant prayer He grants many miricles to those who keep their spirits up and live life day to day. I will be saying prayers for you and your family, please keep the faith!

    I truly understand the situation.

    Please don't do anything before you've had time to think about things.
