Hi all. Melanie's oncology surgeon, Dr Chi, informed us yesterday that Melanie is cancer-FREE!!! He got the pathology report back and confirmed what we've all been praying for! Such great news. Praise God!
Melanie is also FREE of the hospital too! She came home today (Thursday afternoon). This is a good thing as well. She turned a proverbial corner Wednesday evening, realizing the pain meds are indeed working, and that even as bad as the pain is and can/will be, it would be far worse without the pain medications, which was oddly comforting and greatly helped her to give her the strength to move forward in recovery. Again, praise the Lord.
We will be posting new needs either tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday to help us through the next couple of weeks, as we will be needing help with having someone here in our home to be with Melanie while I'm back at work. And we will also be looking for help with child care (away from home) for Matthew & Luke primarily during the week on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
We will also be letting Natasha and De know of these same needs, as they have let us know that there are many people at our wonderful church, The Bridge, who want to help. It's just so amazing, and humbling, and beautiful, and encouraging to me to see the body of Christ in action, and ALL of our friends and family and loved ones of all beliefs loving and supporting us in so many ways. Bless you all.
Ok...this was supposed to be a quick update, and I'm running long again. Need sleep, signing off for now.
Love you all,
Mike
