The results of the biopsy has come back positive. He has cancer, and will be starting radiation soon. He's not strong enough for chemotherapy. His body is too weak for it, and it would weaken his immune system even more. The radiation will help to contain it but will not heal it.
But we know the great healer. His word says by His stripes we ARE healed. The comforting part of all this is that Dave is ready to go if it is his time. He is tired of fighting all this sickness. He has been through so much the last couple of years with heart surgeries and having emphesemy, and now this. Maybe he has more fight in him then he thinks he does, or God just isn't finished with him yet. It's all in God's timing.
Thank ya'll so much for your continued prayers, kind words, and concern. They mean so much to me to know there are so many caring people out there in the blogging world.
I am so sorry about this news. I will continue to pray for him.
