When I was in Singapore, my oncologist started me on a medicine for my cancer. It is called ‘targeted therapy’ because it does two specific things: it stops cells that are dividing and it prevents new blood vessels from being produced. So, the tumors have a difficult time growing if their cells can’t divide and if they can’t build new blood vessels to expand their size. When I was in Houston in late January, I had another CT scan; this scan revealed that the tumors in my lungs and lymph nodes in my chest had gotten smaller. We consider this a miracle because the medicine is only supposed to stop the growth of the tumors! We’re praising God for His provision and graciousness! I recently went to see an oncologist here in Longview at the Texas Oncology Center. It was a great appointment; she was glad to get all of my medical records from Singapore. She has continued the treatment that I started in Singapore. Please pray that God will continue to reduce the size of my tumors, that the medicine will continue to work, and that I’ll be able to endure the side effects of the medicine.

Thanks so much for all the prayers you have been praying. Please keep praying for David and for the kids as the transition to life here in the US. They are all processing at different levels leaving Indonesia and David's cancer diagnosis. We are so humbled by them and their hearts for the Lord through all this. They have each drawn closer to their Father. Please pray for them to continue in this. Also, pray for wisdom for us as Abi asks questions that are so hard. She is our one who is still crying daily over her sadness of leaving her home and friends in Indonesia and her daddy.
On a brighter side...
