A prayer for a friend and her daughter

My wife wanted me to send this prayer request out for her friend. Anyone with kids can feel the need of healing here.

A friend from high school found out today that her 17 year old daughter, Ashley, has a malignant tumor that is intertwined with her lower rib and has her lung pushed out of place.
At this time, the doctor believes that it developed rather quickly. They should find out within the next few days what type, stage, etc. Please pray for strength, comfort, and healing.
