Urgent Prayer For Rob

Dear ones,

Rob is scheduled to enter the hospital Monday morning, March 23rd for a procedure where they will put him under anesthesia and three doctors will be looking at his insides. The Gastroenterologist will be looking at the insides of his stomach and other areas, the Pulmonologist will be looking at his lungs and doing a biopsy, and lastly the surgeon will be looking into the head and neck area and doing another type of biopsy on the tumor. The procedure is scheduled to begin at 11 am and take from 1 to 1.5 hours. We have no idea how soon results will be known.

I'm sorry I couldn't get this to you earlier but the details have been coming together throughout the weekend. Rob also got the news that the second biopsy showed the tumor in his neck is malignant but there is a question about the type of cells which would indicate where the primary cancer site is. Hence, the need to look further afield to check every possibility.

Thank you all for standing in the gap with us as this cycle of testing continues. I will update the blog as soon as there is something new to report.

Blessings to you, in Jesus,
Carol for Rob too
