Today is a GREAT day!
How can it be a "GREAT day you might ask? Well let me tell you! This morning after I posted the blog at 5:00 am I decided to wake Matt and Bob up and see Danny before Matt left for his training camp for his China trip. ( He left from the Sacramento airport at 11) We got up to the hospital at about 8, not thinking we would see any docs, and Dr. Connie came by to see Dan. She had no info on the results yet and said we would hear the later in the morning. As we were leaving to take Matt to the airport we spied Dr. Greg, the chief oncology surgeon, and he came in and told us the preliminary results which are so very encouraging: Dan does have cancer in his liver and pancreas but the good news is that it is a type of cancer that is VERY responsive to treatment ( probably chemo, maybe surgery). It is a very rare cancer seen mostly in infants to three year olds, sometimes in young children, in someone Dan's age about 1 in 50 million! On Monday we will get the final report and next week the tumor board will meet and plan a course of action. God has placed several other people in our lives that will assist us in finding the BEST course of action, the BEST docs and the BEST place for treatment. We are so amazed that these relationships have been developing over time as if the LORD was (and we know He was) preparing us for this event. So my fellow prayer warriors, keep on praying for the road ahead: for healing, for wisdom, for guidance, for miracles, for the glory of the LORD to be revealed in us and through us. By the way, Ashley's (Dan's gf) "godbrother" received Jesus as His Savior because of this situation with Dan. Thank you LORD for the fruit you will bring forth through this trial of our lives. We love you Jesus and we love and appreciate the our brothers and sisters in Jesus who are so loving and supportive. Spread the word: pray for Dan the man.
