Second Round :(

Metisha received the results back from an MRI of her abdomen today and the cancer is back. The spot on her liver which they burned about a year ago now had cancer back around the edges. Mark and Metisha are taking the news better than the rest of us and are upbeat! Always joking, Metisha says thanks to everyone who was sad there were no updates on the blog because we have an update now ;)

The doctors said this area of the liver was hard to burn because it is by a large blood vessel but they are optimistic it can be treated with the same procedure. Right now, the plan is to do another a burn procedure and no chemo. She will have the procedure done as soon as possible. She will also have a PET scan on the 19th to see if the reoccurrence is only in her liver.

So it’s time to hit our knees in prayer again. We know Metisha is God’s miracle. We know he healed her once and can do it again. We know he is more powerful than cancer.

Pray that:
The cancer has only reoccurred in this one spot.
The burn procedure can be done quickly.
The burn procedure will be easy on her body. The last treatment was very painful.
He will maintain Metisha’s high spirits.
Our family will be able to give Mark and Metisha the support they need.
God will once again cure her of all cancer.

It’s raining today in Fort Worth, and if you know Metisha’s story, you know that God has given us rain as a sign of his healing in her life.
