Friday Evening

Wow, we've had a busy busy day! Did the little surgery to get Peter's port in for chemo, met with our nurse navigator, saw our oncology team, met with Dr Yoder, and things are moving forward to potentially discharge in the next day or two as long as pain stays under control. Oh, and we got the AWESOME MRI results: unremarkable. 🙌🏻

Had family and a steady stream of friends visit too, and had a productive meeting for camp, and both have been great for Peter. He also played the guitar for the first time since all this happened. It blessed my heart so deeply! Also, met a man who had this at age 27, had chemo, and went on to have children many years later!! Come on Jesus! That's what we need to hear!

To be clear, this is testicular cancer, which the doctors are telling us has spread to his abdomen lymph nodes and is in lungs (they deduced this without further biopsy). Please pray specifically for these areas!

My extroverted husband is loving all the people, and we are learning power naps make a big difference for his energy. (My introverted self has had to slip away a decent amount to keep up with my husband, which I find hilarious). We are hopeful about keeping the abdominal pain under control and going home tomorrow.

God is so, so good to us!
