Yesterday the Tumor Board discussed Sandy's case. They decided that she needs to be treated as having bile duct cancer, even though all pathology reports have come back negative for cancer. Based on what the surgeon saw and felt during the Kansas City surgery, they feel that it is cancer. There is not yet a "next step," though we imagine there will be options presented to Sandy at her October 13 appointment with a KU oncologist.
Please continue praying for healing - may the tumors simply disappear! Also pray for wisdom for the doctors and a clear direction to go from this point on.
A friend reminded me today that while it is easy to become enmeshed in medical terminology, diagnoses, treatments, and statistics, our hope is only to be in the Lord. So we pray that He directs the minds of the doctors, opens and shuts doors, and continues to flood us all with peace. Regardless of what tomorrow holds, we want to live today to the fullest. There's no sense in missing out on today's blessings because we fear what is around the corner.
