scary

Brain tumor...

I had an mri done last week and it revealed a 4 cm tumor located in the base of my skull. i had thought that the headaches and numbness were side effects from pain meds...

this news is really rocking me. up til now i have been able to stand strong in hope and faith, now we are feeling pretty broken and overwhelmed.

Johnna and i have made i to the mexican clinic. it is an outpatient program, so we are staying in del rio tx, and the clinic picks us up and drops us off every day. We are loving the clinic so far, a little quirky, but alot of good reports and hopeful fellow cancer fighters. We were at the clinic when i was informed about the brain tumor, and we were instantly surrounded by caring praying friends that can COMPLETELY relate. we've met people who have been able to watch their tumors shrink and talking to people who have outlived their death sentences by 10 years.

for those of you who pray (and that better be everybody right now!) please pray for wisdom. we have some decisions to make about how to treat the brain tumor, so we definitely need some divine council.

game on!
