Title: Benbow's follow up today
Post by: Doc Nock on February 20, 2012, 12:25:00 PM

Galen's Oncology follow up is today and they get a report on last week's CT scan.

Prayers for a great report, continued improvement and strength and discernment to yield to God's will.

Prayers too for Maxine's heart issues to be minor and remedied soon!

Thanks Dave for posting this. Here's what we found out.
We just got home and learned that the options are either try to be a part of a study on a new chemo drug, surgery, or wait and see what happens. So we have a lot to pray and think about. Prior to this last surgery and chemo the tumor caused major issues with my blood chemistry. Fortunately it's near normal now. There are 2 separate tumors and the tiny one grew slightly while the larger appeared to stay the same. This is the good news we wanted to hear. Neither the chemo nor the surgery are sure to remove the cancer only to reduce it and hopefully stabilize it. The Dr isn't insistent that we do something immediately and we will meet with the surgeon to see what she recommends before deciding how to proceed. Thanks for the prayers, now it's time to wait on God to see what we do next.

Guys I can't tell you how much your prayers mean to me. God's best to you all. I still have to meet with the surgeon to see what she thinks. Go in for more blood tests and meet with the oncologist next month. Not letting this junk keep me from getting out with the bow.
