Sad

The PET scan came back today and it didn’t show good news. There is cancer in the lymph nodes, in her arm pit, behind her chest muscles and around her stomach again. Her liver is also substantially worse. Metisha isn’t shocked by this news, but she is sad. We all are sad.

Her oncologist wants to start her on a new chemo that was just recently approved by the FDA. As of now, her insurance company is denying the treatment but our favorite nurse is fighting hard against the insurance company. This is a HUGE prayer request now that the insurance company will agree to cover the treatment and quickly so Metisha can start the new chemo next week.

Metisha needs prayers. She has been extremely tired lately and just isn’t feeling good. We want her to be able to live the active life she wants, and she needs her energy back to do that. She is such a strong person but her body has been through a lot. But we believe we God can give her renewed energy and heal her body of all this nasty cancer.

I posted this to your wall, but here it is again for others to read: ‎'If you have been waiting for an answer to prayer for a long time, remember that long waits often occur right before the biggest mountains come down. Keep praying and don't give in to the doubt and fear...''the Lord is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made'' (psalm 145:13) -Jim Cymbala
