  1. Update from Brenda

    Friday, April 15, 2011

    Based on our consult with the surgeon yesterday, Mike says he is "98%" sure he will opt for the robotic surgery. Dr. Tully was easy to talk with and answered all our questions. We are blessed to have him in B'ham! Once Mike chooses to make the phone call, it will take 4-6 weeks to get on the surgical docket.
    So, pray for God's timing of the surgery, assuming that is what Mike decides. The option of surgery first gives him more options should the cancer ever recur. Since this is a slow growing type of cancer, we do not feel rushed to do anything, but at the same time, want it taken care of.

    On another note, pray for Jim, my brother-in-law, who will get back results today from tests run yesterday to see the latest status of his renal cancer that jumped to his lung. Jim is very tired from 10 consecutive rounds of treatment and is dealing with serious mouth sores from the drugs. We are praying for total healing for his body this side of heaven, if God sees fit.
