It's Cancer....could I get a few prayers?
« on: February 09, 2007, 10:48:00 AM »
All,


                After two specialists, it looks as though I have testicular cancer. The docs are 95% sure. I have went through all of the tests, blood work, ultrasound, and exams. Basically, the next step is to get in there, take it out, and send it off to be analyzed. The great thing is that the Doc thinks it is isolated.

I never expected this kind of news (no one does). At this point, I believe I am past the initial shock and in the reactive mode.

The surgery will be next Thursday. I ask for your prayers that all goes well and nothing has spread. I believe in the power of prayer and thank you for any you can send down range for me.

As always,

Gunney we will be praying. Had a friend go through the same thing. He almost didn't make it because of the reaction to the cemo. They took him off it before he was done with it. The cancer had spread to his liver and grew to the point it collapsed one of his lungs. They did an MRI on him after he had stabilized and appeared to be doing better and there wasn't anything there. This took place over a 1 1/2 month period. Jesus can, does, and will heal. Keep your eyes on Him.

Target archery is seeing how far away you can get and still hit the bull's eye. Bowhunting is seeing how close you can get and never miss your mark.

WHAT CANCER CAN NOT DO

Cancer is so limited.
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot destroy peace.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot suppress memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot steal eternal life.
It cannot conquer the spirit.
