My mom heard from her doctor today. She was diagnosed with melanoma cancer this summer and has been through several procedures to remove the cancer in her arm. After one surgery and three other in office visits of trying to remove the cancer they still are not getting clear margins. Her doctor has been consulting with other doctors on what to do next. The thought is that she will need to go through chemotherapy and radiation to make sure that the cancer is completely gone. This isn't for sure yet but most likely. I ask that you will lift her up in prayer. Pray that she will be at peace with this news and that she will cling to God through this time. She is an strong woman. She is very active so I know that if this has to be done, she will come through just fine. Her strength right now really amazes me.
Thanks for your prayers.
