News from MDA

Just wanted to let all of you know the latest, who are following Dad and Mom's road with cancer.
Monday, they were at MDA for a follow-up 3 month check up, since Dad's adrenal gland removal.  On Monday, they scanned Dad, and another spot of cancer has shown up on the liver.
It is small, so they are recommending no treatment at this time, and rescanning him in 10 weeks, to see if it has changed, grown, etc.
Again, I would ask for your prayers for Mom and Dad.  For the "peace, that passes all understanding, to guard their hearts and their minds, in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Pray for healing, that the spot would be completely gone when they go back in 10 weeks.
Pray for strength, encouragement, and joy as they walk through this time of waiting.
Pray for wisdom, if there is anything they can/should be doing between now and then.
They are heading to Red River to get back out of the heat and for a little  R&R, so pray they have an enjoyable time, a time of refreshment.
God is good, all the time, and we trust Him completely.  We don't necessarily like what He does all the time, but we know He is awesome, His ways are not our ways, He has a purpose in all of this, and we are clinging to His promises.  To God be all glory and praise.  We love Him.
Thank you again, as you begin to lift Dad and Mom back up before the throne.
We love each of you and cherish your friendship and prayers.
In His amazing grace,
JJ
