Celebrating John's Birthday
To celebrate John's 38th birthday this year, we decided to spend a couple night at Great Wolf Lodge here in Kansas City. It was still decorated for Christmas and it was beautiful! We swam, enjoyed the water park and enjoyed this virtual wand treasure hunt with the boys. Our favorite part of the trip might have been eating chicken tenders at Longhorn both nights. They were delicious! I'm excited to celebrate my son's birthday with his family this year in this special way.

MRI at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America
Dear family, friends and prayer warriors,
This week
Gary and I flew to Chicago to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America to
get a second opinion for treatment of my lung cancer. The doctor
ordered an MRI of the brain and discovered I have two metastatic
lesions. One on the right side and one on the left side of my brain.
We flew home today and will return to CTCA on Tuesday to have stereotactic radiosurgery on Wed. If all goes well, we will return home on Thurs.
This is not surgery, but radiation, even though surgery is part of the
name. I am very happy to be seen at CTCA and feel I am in good hands..
Thank you for your persistent prayers for God's guidance in what my
next step should be.
Please continue to pray for God's healing hand on me and for wisdom and knowledge
for my doctors. The radiation is delicate and I would appreciate specific prayer for the treatment to work on Wed.
I also ask for prayer to will tolerate the procedure. I will need to
be still for 2 hours while I have a custom made mask on my face that is
bolted to the table. I want to honor and glorify God in all I say and
do. I praise Him for sending me to doctors that found these lesions so
they can be treated.
God bless each of you for praying for me and encouraging me.
In His hand and with love,
Sue

Great News! Cancer is Stable!
Hello everyone,
Praise God for good test results! Thank you all for your prayers
and encouragement. The tumor in my lung and the metastatic lesions in
all the other places are stable. I am so thankful to the Lord for His
hand upon me. I have been off the targeted medicine for 10 days and
will start taking it again tomorrow. I will still get the rash, but it is manageable. I have an appointment at Cancer Treatment Centers of America on Dec. 8th
in the Chicago area. I hope to get more information about integrated
therapy there; using supplements and diet to build up my immune system.
Please pray that the medicine will continue to stabilize my
cancer and that God will give me wisdom for decisions that will need to
be made about treatments. Also, please praise and thank God for His
hand upon me. I am so blessed to have so many people caring about me,
praying for me, and supporting me. God bless each of you.
In His hand and with love, Sue
