on the road

johnna and i spent this last weekend in a church in northern CA that has experienced untreatable terminal cancer patients being healed. it has been an extraordinary time of building hope, and we feel equipped to keep pressing on in our journey. i will have an MRI and a needle biopsy this coming friday, and i wouldn't be shocked to hear the report that the tumors are mysteriously gone! we were supposed to be heading to tijuana today, but our flight was overbooked so we are going tomorrow. there are 2 alternative hospitals there that we will be visiting before we make our final decision regarding which to seek care from, and following our trip we should have an updated cost analysis. We hope to have the funding for the treatment as soon as possible, so be aware of the fundraisers happening in your area. there is a cut-a-thon in austin on august 19 and something fun and exciting with a celebrity chef in santa rosa on september 6th.

as things just keep looking worse and worse, i am glad to have already experienced the generosity and support from so many of you. i thank you for standing with me, and know before i ask that you will continue to stand and even stand stronger for me and my family as we face this growing tyrant.
