I had my follow up doctor’s appointment today. The news was excellent. They did remove the JP Drain. They will be keeping the catheter in for another week. The lab results were back from the tissue he removed. The cancer was super aggressive. The Gleason score was actually a 9 […]
Pretty uneventful day, not much change since yesterday. My stomach finally started working right last night. Today I’m afraid the antibiotics already messed that up, but least it’s working. Even with fiber and probiotics. Left foot still in major pain. Called Doctor this morning to make sure he doesn’t think […]

Surgery went well expect to be discharged tomorrow. I want to thank everyone for their best wishes and prayers.
Everything is a go – heading down to the hospital to have the prostate removed. Have people all over the world in prayer. Such a blessing. Received a note from a missionary in Australia during the night, saying he would be praying this morning. Along with all the other notes […]
