Chances are good that my Dad has colon cancer. He will find out for sure tomorrow afternoon. He had a colonoscopy yesterday and it was not good. Because of what the doc saw during the test, he also ran a CAT scan, did a biopsy and ran some blood work. My mom explained it as he (my Dad) has a lot of 'junk' in his colon....so much that the doc could only get in about 4 in. There is a slim chance that it is just IBS...with God's grace, that is what we are hoping for. At this point we are praying for a miracle. It is killing me to even type this, as the thought of my Dad being ill again is too much for me to comprehend. I cannot seem to wrap my mind around it. Because of my Dad, I truly believe in the power of prayer...this is where YOU come in. Many of you already know my Dad, some have yet to meet him. Regardless, he is a beloved man who means a great deal to my family. So, please, once you finish this email, stop and pray for him. Remember, prayers come in all shapes and sizes! I cannot thank you enough for taking some time to pray for my Dad's health. Of course I will be in touch about his test results sometime this weekend.
Blessings,
Mandy (& my Dad, Mom, Lee and Matthew)
