Missing You

Fellow Bloggers, 

I do apologize for the MAJOR lapse in time.  As you can imagine so much has transpired since we last spoke.  Dad is home now.  He is doing good.  After his fourth chemotherapy treatment his doctor ordered a Echo cardiogram test for his heart.  One of the chemo meds has an adverse effect on the heart so they wanted to see how his was doing seeing that he has had several bypass surgeries.  Well the results told them that he needed to sit out his next couple of chemo treatments to allow his heart functions to get better.  The test he took which gave this information is called a MUGA Scan.  (compared to the echo, it gives a more accurate result)

Now they would like to began radiation therapy for the next six weeks beginning mid November.  Chemotherapy will probably resume after the radiation treatments.

The good news is....drum roll please........THE TUMOR HAS DECREASED IN SIZE BY A LITTLE MORE THAN 50% !!!!!

We are praying for wisdom.  Thanking our God for all that He has done on Dad's behalf.  Looking ahead for complete manifestation of his healing.  Moreover, praising God for you and your continued prayers.
