wednesday

dear ones of the army of dano,
today we have heard that they are suspecting a neuroendocrine tumor. it is hard to diagnose, because of the cell morphology (the way the cell looks). the LORD had favor on us today in many ways. I was able to go to Sutter and get slides and transport them to Stanford. At Sutter I met (remet) one of the pathologists at Sutter whom I had known 7 years ago when our girls were competing in Pony Club! Small world. When I knew her she was in med school. She was instrumental in having 3 tissue blocks made as she saw that this was an unusual case. so Stanford will stain their own slides and have their pathologists confirm what the pathologists in Texas are saying -neuroendocrine. Dan needs to undergo a special scan. Will you please pray that we can do this ASAP, like tomorrow or the next day. Pray that Bertha will be able to break through the busy schedule in Nuclear Medicine and get us in. This may be a 3 day test according to the net info, so let's get moving. As soon as we get a hard copy of the path report, we will be sending out info to several other institutions for their opinions. We need wisdom. We need a miracle. We want it now. We need you Jesus. Be our strength and our Rock. love you all and thank you mucho for praying with us at this time.
