This Morning
We
just spent the morning with the oncologist and have a lot of
information to process. The stomach stage 4 cancer I have is very
aggressive and has spread to several organs all ready. No early warning
– lab check ups over the past several years have all come in “perfect”
as my Doctor in Burnaby often said.
I
lost my appetite in Hawaii and checked in with our new doctor here in
Bellingham – who ordered a CAT scan within 5 days and there it was full
blown stomach cancer. Humanly speaking I have a few months maybe 3-6
with no treatment and maybe a few more with treatment.
We
are trying to discern what is best to do weighing quality of life with
length of life if Chemo does in fact work. In any case I may be in
heaven soon unless the Lord chooses to bless us with a miraculous
healing. Our three daughters, husbands, 8 grandchildren and Marcia are
trying to process all of this that has come so suddenly.
I
told the doctor my loving heavenly Father has given me 74 years of
amazing health, no surgeries, no taking of medication, high energy and
an amazing time in all the ministry assignments the Lord has invited us
into. And my heavenly Father will take care of what lies ahead.
Love ya,
Carlin and Marcia
