Sorry to hear about that, Robin.
I will keep them in my prayers.Hey guys – all the postive thoughts and prayers must have paid off. When I dropped the kiddos off at daycare yesterday morning, Kathy (my daycare lady) said the oncologist said her husband had stage 3 and 4 cancer in both lungs – very negative prognosis. She was so upset but said they were going to see the surgeon yesterday afternoon. So, when I went to pick up Kayla and Abby, she was basically dancing for joy. They had gone to see the surgeon and he asked them what the oncologist had told them. They said the thing about the stage 3 and 4 cancer and the surgeon just rolled his eyes. He was looking at the x-rays, mri’s and other tests and said the only thing in his lungs was air – CAN YOU BELIEVE IT???? He did say there was something “suspicious” in his lymph nodes around his lungs but said they can be surgically removed no problem and that the cancer in his spine area can be successfully treated with radiation. He had a much brighter outlook for them and really was reassuring that it could all be treated.
It is such a miracle!! I guess there have been a lot of other people who have seen this oncologist, been told they only have not long to live, got a second opinion and found out the same thing- THAT HE WAS WRONG!!! How can doctors be such idiots? I guess it is a valuable lesson to get a second opinion before the doctor begins digging your grave
.Anyway, sorry this got so long but I just have to say “Thank You” for all your thoughts and prayers. It still may be a difficult journey for them but it certainly looks better!!

That’s great news, Robin!
I’ll continue to pray for them because like you said, it still isn’t going to be easy for them, but what a blessing to find out it’s likely treatable, instead of definitely fatal.
