The Facts - Cancer Free!

Diagnosis: One quarter-size malignant tumor
Location: Lower lobe of left lung
Treatment: Surgery & Chemotherapy - Successful!
Prognosis: Excellent
Chance of Recurrence: Small
In case you haven't heard, Rhonda has been declared cancer free by her oncologist!!!

Thank you to all the friends and family who have expressed their concern, support, and encouragement. Praise the Lord that Rhonda's tumor was found early. The process of diagnosis and planning treatment went quickly in March, and recovery from surgery progressed smoothly across April. The four months of chemotherapy ended in mid-September. Now, on to recovery from the chemo. The doctor says it may take up to six months for Rhonda to regain her physical strength, so please keep praying!

Today's Treatment Postponed

Just a short note -- Rhonda's blood counts were low enough this Monday morning to delay the scheduled short treatment for a week. Doctor's orders were to go home and rest up. Expectation is a few days more will give the counts time to recover.

On another front, we have friends driving home from eastern Tennessee with more than they left with. She will be bringing home a nice '66 Mustang. Woohoo!

Have to find fun where you can...

David
