Keeping The Faith
Give thanks - less than 10% of pancreatic cancers are operable - and Debbie is scheduled for surgery at 8am Wednesday at Emory - 1364 Clifton Rd NE Atlanta Ga 30322. Thank God - she will not require the complex day long Whipple procedure. We are blessed - US News & World Report ranked Emory in the top 1% of 5400 US hospitals and their top Surgical Oncologist will be performing Deb's surgery. Once the tumor is out and tested the doctors will discuss follow up treatment options. Deb is drawing daily strength from God and his word. " Be joyful always, pray continuously and give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Continue to keep us in your prayers in the days ahead.

I am Vicki Bachman Pat's friend from our old neighborhood.You remember us probably from Jonathan and us visiting you at their house with Jamie years ago.Just wanted to tell you you are in my thoughts and prayers. Emory is amazing for things like this-my dad has parkinsons disease and his dr.'s are all there so I am very familiar with it.Psalm says in Chapter 91:1&2," He who dwells in the shelter of the most high will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.He( in this case she ) will say of the Lord,He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust."
ReplyDeleteYour Boon family is thinking about you and praying for you daily. We know God will be with you tomorrow during your surgery. I will pray that God guides and directs the doctors and medical personnel. So glad to know that this is operable. Thank you for the updates. Will be anxiously awaiting word once surgery is complete.
