Thank You Lord for Your goodness to us

Wow, it has almost been 2 weeks since I have written - time flies these days. Today Bob and I viewed Dan's last scan with 2 local radiologist friends. We were curious about the pancreatic tumor situation and asked them to review the scan with us. The pancreatic tumor is not visible on the scan and we did compare it with Dan's original CT where it was quite visible. The head of the pancreas does have a slight bulge or edema present which could be something, but there is no obvious malignancy there. Shocking is the only word available when looking at Dan's original scan of last June. Gratitude and amazement are the words that come to my mind as we see how far Dan has come in these last 9 months.
Dan and Ashley are coming up for Easter, the day we celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus. We are having a family gathering in the afternoon minus our Jessica, who is off to Latin America again - Mexico this time. She has been somewhere in Latin America for the last 3 Easters. Hmmmmm.... are we seeing a trend here or what?
On Monday Bob, Dan, Ashley and I will meet with the Stanford transplant team to discuss that option. Should be interesting.
More on that later. Hoping your weekend will be filled with the joy and knowledge of our victory over sin and death through Messiah. He has risen!

The last chapter of Matthew:

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.
The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”
While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day.
Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
