OT: - It's cancer
Folks:
Just got off the phone with my surgeon. The tumor he discovered last Friday is malignant.
Am going to see a top specialist at the University of Penn Hospital in Philadelphia Friday morning.
Will know more -- what type, what stage development, survivability rate, proposed treatment -- after that meeting.
I got the news on my wife's last day of radiation treatment for her breast cancer. She has finished 7 weeks and now moves onto her Year of Healing. She is doing well.
Maybe she can teach me ...

helping her pack up 40 years of mission work and memories. This is the first time I've been on the forum in a while due to travel and other stuff, and now I see this. Take care of yourself. I'm sure your wife will see you through it, like you have been with her. My mom's got some cancer issues as well. Nasty stuff all around.
Prayer ongoing for you Brother.

We will keep you in our thoughts.
You already know the drill, so that helps, but clearly the role changes.
Best wishes from IA,
