Could use some prayer (update 3-28)
« on: February 08, 2011, 10:45:00 PM »
Went to see the Dr yesterday about some problems I'd been having. Dr said it appeared the cancer had grown 30% to 40% since September which isn't good  when it's supposed to be slow growing. Set up an appointment with the surgeon to get another ct scan to see if it's grown that much. At least I have an excuse for my big gut. Going to get stretch marks if something isn't done. Dr thinks I'm pregnant. Thanks for the prayers.

Ahhh, buddy... :(   Hate to hear that... but will also petition our Gracious Lord to intercede on your behalf and provide negative tests and positive alternatives!

The surgeon agrees that it has grown significantly and will try to get a ct scan set up yet this week. Then we will get together and discuss what he sees and set up the surgery date and how far we should go with it. Not the best news but I'm still a lot better off than Adler.
I try to smile all the time regardless of the situation. It feels a lot better, doesn't steal energy from me, and it spites the source of the trouble.
Have a great day and thanks for your prayers.

Galen,

Let me know if you need a hand with anything.

I live across ABQ from you but get over to RR fairly often with work.

I'm serious, don't hesitate.

Take Care

I had my ct scan yesterday and met with my surgeon this morning. The results weren't what I'd like but God is always in control. Based on the ct scan the tumor is larger now than when they removed some of it 2 1/2 years ago. At that time the scan show it was mostly on the left side and was dark with a few bright spots which indicated activity. This time the left side was similar to the last time but now it has spread over the the right side as well. The portion on the right is all bright indicating it is actively growing. We talked about some alternatives but the surgeon wants to take the case to the UNM Hospital Oncology Board on Wednesday where Drs, Surgeons, and Oncologists review each case and determine a plan. Once my Surgeon gets back with me I'll fill you  in on what he thinks the plan of treatment will be.
I really appreciate everyone's prayers. I can't tell you how good it feels to be able to rest in God's love and security. I sense Him telling me to rest in that and not let fear and worry steal my strength. I will need that when He is ready for me to fight.
Thank you,
