Hello everyone : )
First I need to thank you for all of the prayers in our behalf. We continue to feel the power of your faith - it is strengthening us in many ways. We are so grateful to have you in our
On Sunday we had a family dinner, did some good socializing, and most importantly received priesthood blessings. They have been a source of comfort and strength. We also talked about options for moving forward. We all know that chemo is poison and that a body can only handle do much of it. We also know the limitations of surgery and radiation. Angela's Dad spent a significant amount of time looking at therapies that would help my body fight the cancer using is own immune system. Thanks to him, we were able to go into Monday's appointment with some alternative treatment ideas.
The appointment went really well. The medical staff at Huntsman are wonderful and amazing. We did the normal routine items, looked at the 'glowy' spots on the scan, and talked about the next step. I was able to share with them some studies Angela's Dad had found and forwarded to us. We recently were told I don't qualify for one of them; however, we are hopeful for the second one. If the studies don't pan out, it will be chemo and possibly surgery : (
I must say though, that we have been so blessed. To have made it this far is beating the odds. So many miracles have occurred in our behalf. We are truly surrounded by angels.
We know that God lives and is watching over us. Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer. Through him we find PEACE.
Thanks again for all you do for our family. -Doug & Angela
