Dear all, Good news - I would like to give you an update on things and to thank each and all of you for your prayers. On Tuesday we were to UVA Hosp for Katie’s follow-up and the Dr. said the surgery was perfect. The x-rays are absolutely clear and as are her lymph nodes. No Chemo, no radiation and only a follow up in six months. Thanks be to God.
Bad news – On Thursday at about midnight, we went to ER because Katie was vomiting and had pains in the abdomen. DR e-rayed ,etc, and said it looked like a blocked intestine and there was about a 70% chance that surgery would be needed. Ouch. The admitted her into the hospital, and I prayed with all of my heart. They put her on a liquid diet with meds, etc, and, praise the Lord, it cleared up and the pain went away.
Good news – Katie came home late Friday afternoon and on Saturday, we travelled to Gina’s in Burke Center to celebrate Gina’s birthday and Gina and John’s wedding anniversary. Again, thanks be to God and to each of you for your prayers. Peace, -- Jerry John
