Update

Hello Dear Loved One & Praying Partners,
Ps. 27: 14 tells us to "Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."

I also find myself waiting for the Dr.' and the various reports. On May 30th. I had a chest x-ray that showed fluid around the right lung. I had been having some difficulty breathing. So once the doctor saw the x-ray he thought it best to remove some fluid from around the right lung. It did not take long at all before I could breath better.

However, a few days later my "New Doctor" ( Dr. Davis), called to see how I was doing and told me that there was "ACTIVE" cancer cells in the fluid that was taken from the chest wall. He started me on a medicine call Tarceva. This medicine is suppose to attack the cancer cells of the lung and cause them to die (" Lord I Pray that you would cause this medicine to kill off the cancer cells")

In a weeks time I had accumulated more fluid and the breathing was not good. So I called the Nurse that works with my doctor. We did the same thing again only not as much fluid the second time around.

So for today, I am grateful to my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ, that HE is keeping me in his care. My strength is good, and when it is not (I take a nap).

So I am asking you to pray that this medicine I am on will kill the cancer cell, and that God would be in agreement to totally heal the cancer in my body. And above all I will honor & glorify him.

One last thing Dear Ones. I am living with cancer. God has been so gracious to me.
I tell every one that I am not sick, however! I AM LIVING WITH A RATHER SERIOUS HEALTH SITUATION". So let's go to Ps. 121 and see where our help comes from. Let's tell the world who our help comes from. "My help comes from the Lord."

So for now I will close. I will keep you up to date as new things develop.

Loving each and every one of you with the Love of Jesus.
