    My neighbor Thomas

    I had posted earlier concerning his worries about his lung cancer and a brain tumor. The lung problem seems to be under control, however he just returned from further testing and they still can't decide whether the tumor is back or just a "shadow" from where it was. At any rate he's going in Monday for laser surgery on the spot, told him he goes home the same day. Please pray for a good outcome for Thomas he has already placed his life in God's hands. GW

    Thomas beat me to it, walked over to see me today. Speech is slightly slurred, also he can only lift his right arm to shoulder level and his right wrist is super weak. Not bad for a guy with 6 holes in his head. The tumor was 3cm, they told him he wouldn't have lasted 3 months without the surgery. We had a long talk about God and the power of prayer. Thank you Lord for favors granted. GW

    Father, Please guide the physicians that are treating Thomas for his lung cancer. Please all the spots to be shadows and not a recurrence of his tumors. Father, cancer always causes concerns and worries, so please quell any concerns so that Thomas may explore his avenues of treatment. Lastly, please buttress his faith and allow his relationship with You to flower and bloom. AMEN
