In case you haven’t heard…
Just a quick update to any blog readers out there that may not keep up with me on Facebook:
Found out last week that I may have testicular cancer. Went into surgery this past Thursday and they got the infected one out. The procedure itself went fine. I’ve been recovering the past 4 days with much thanks to my lovely wife Heather and my parents.
I was told yesterday at my follow-up that it was indeed cancer (4 types of it in the same growth, which is very rare/unusual), but it was contained, caught early, and wasn’t near any blood vessels or cords.
Praise God!
Just one CT scan to go (tomorrow afternoon) to check my lymph nodes. I should have an update from the doctor this Thursday with the results.
Continue to keep me in your prayers! The outpouring of encouragement and support has been wonderful!
And I will say this: God has strengthened me, given me a sense of calm and peace throughout this whole process.
Before the surgery, I was more scared of the I.V. needle than the cancer itself! (I HATE needles!)
What’s there to be afraid of, when I have Almighty God in my life?
I hope others are blessed by my circumstances and I can’t wait to get back on my feet, on stage at church “behind the pulpit” this Sunday to deliver God’s Word!
