Answered Prayers!

We just received great news!  After a full day of testing yesterday, Dr. Stan reported to mom today that though her cancer is invasive and aggressive, it is not nearly as aggressive as the initial pathology report from Evansville indicated.  A lot of questions simply can’t be answered until after surgery.  They are on their way home this afternoon.  Mom and dad will have to return to Mayo on Tuesday (October 27th) and will remain there for two weeks.  Her double mastectomy is now scheduled for Tuesday, November 3rd.  We feel blessed for this great news and answer to our prayers!!

  2. Dear Lynda and family,

    PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSING FLOW!!!

    It's such good news that the doctors have given you. I know that God is in control and is answering prayers...and the Lord has been receiving myriads of them in your behalf!

    Claim Joshua 1:9...Be strong and courageous; be not afraid, neither be dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with you wherever you go.

    You are in my prayers!!! Barbara Whybark

  3. Lynda, I am so happy to hear that everything is not as bad as we thought. You know my mother was there 10 years ago dealing with a lot of the same struggles and she is still here today telling me every day what to do. I truly feel it is because of the doctors at Mayo!! Mayo is a wonderful place when your health is being challenged. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. Amy Rice
