several fundraisers occured this weekend in the texas area and an incredible $7,000.00 was raised. there is also an awesome event being planned for the santa rosa ca area on sept 6. for details on that please sign up for updates here, or call an information line at 707.237.5701.
we have also been blessed by another dear friend with the creation of an online travel site that will also generate some income for us. you can either simply book your flights and hotel accomodations there, or you can actually set up your own travel site as a part of my business and you and i both will receive commissions from business generated on your site! to book travel arrangements visit here or for more info on the business visit here.
i cannot express the magnitude of gratitude (copyright jesse jackson at some point i am sure) this lehr family has for all the incredible efforts going on to support us. there are some huge efforts requiring many hours of work and devotion, may God bless you tenfold for the gifts you have bestowed.

holy crap
so much to update, so few brain cells devoted to remembering them all!
the conclusion of our california /tijuana trip was not quite as hopeful as we would have liked. my current diagnosis is extreme enough that even the alternative hospitals are talking about extended life expectancy rather than complete remission. they have experienced complete remission but it is the exception rather than the rule.
we returned to austin on thursday the 9th, and on friday the 10th, went through the needle biopsy which i highly recommend avoiding if at all possible. i left for georgia on saturday to spend a week at a conference regarding the spiritual and physical dynamics of healing and being whole. it was really good eye opening material, and i again have a great hope that i will be completely healed. the "for my life" conference at Be In Health ministries has recorded numerous miracle healings of many untreatable diseases including terminal cancer.
Right after the lest session of the conferenc i started experiencing some chest pain and shortness of breath. after the most exasperating time of dealing with emergency rooms in ga it was finally determined that i had a partially collapsed lung, along with a small amount of fluid and swelling of the lining of my lung and chest wall. things could have been worse, but it seems that some of the physically painful implications of the cancer may be starting to manifest.
it also appears that the original diagnosis i received was incomplete. believe it or not, there are more tumors than i thought my oncologist discussed. there are 5 or 6 in my lungs with at least one tumor in each of the lobes of the lungs, and 4 or 5 tumors in my liver, as well as the one on my spine. we are standing strong against fear and doubt, but it is a very hard position to maintain at times. we are going to head back up to shasta in a week or so to stay until the funds for tijuana are available.
i think that is all for now, thank you for tracking with the lehr family. i desperately seek your continued prayer and financial support, and look forward with great hope to having a good report of God's power soon.
