Title:
Needed Prayers
Will you all pray for my son. He has been fighting a battle with cancer for the past year. Last May, after several months of chemo and radiation, he went in for Esophageal Cancer surgery. Then he spent another 3 months on a hard regimen of chemo treatments again. His last treatment was 30 days ago and he was just starting to feel good.
He was starting to enjoy his son who was a year old on June 1st, and was also going back to a job he loves, flying Blackhawks and Hueys in the Army.
Last night he had a severe pain in his side, so severe that he went into the emergency room. They did a scan and found cancer in/on his liver. They said there was quite a significant amount of cells found.
They will get together tomorrow to figure out a treatment plan, but said that a liver transplant would probably be the only thing that would work, if the cancer hasn't spread anywhere else. They will find that out with further testing.
To tell the truth, it doesn't look promising. As I talked to Lindsey on the phone, she broke down sobbing as did I.
My son loves his family and is head over heals in love with his son. I can't stand the thoughts of him not being able to enjoy the future and watch his son grow, and to be there for him.
Please, he needs all the prayers he can get to get through this.
This picture was taken the day before yesterday. They went to an orchard to pick apples and get some cider and cinnamon donuts.

Thank you so very much
