Hi faithful prayer friends. Please keep praying for Trish. She is recovering nicely...just tired and sore. However, we did find out today that her thyroid (removed on Monday) WAS cancerous. Lymph nodes around the thyroid that were also removed WERE NOT cancerous. So, there is good news:
We know surgery was the right thing to do and are thankful that God provided a quality surgeon to do her thryroidechtomy quickly.
This sort of cancer is highly treatable due to surgery and treatment options. Her surgeon seems to feel strongly that complete cure is quite likely with medicine she will begin taking soon.
Obviously, the bad news is that cancer is cancer and no one wants this. Please pray for:
- Wisdom for Dr. Tallo (endocrinologist) and Dr. Sivard (surgeon/endocrinologist) as they devise Trish's treatment plan.
- Complete healing.
- Peace for Trish and our family.
Thank for praying. I believe God that "the works of God (will be) displayed in (Trish)" as He heals her (see John 9:3b, ESV).

Having battled cancer two years ago I know the emotions you are facing. I know the power of prayer and the healing that only the Lord can provide. Make your prayers specfic and allow us to know those specific so we too can pray for God's intervention. I will be praying that you receive the same healing I received two years ago. Rest in the strength that only our Lord can provide. - Kirk
