My dear friends,
“Thank you” is a painfully inadequate expression, but regrettably it’s all I have available to let you know how much we appreciate the extreme outpouring of love and support we have received from each of you and many others. Please, please, please know that we think of each of you with tremendously grateful hearts. And even greater is our thankfulness and praise to God for providing each of you to us to partner with us during this difficult time. What an amazing gift!
Last week was a full week of additional tests and meetings with the DukeRaleigh oncologist. We have been offered a course of treatment to be conducted at DukeRaleigh, but have also been referred to Duke University for an oncology consult there as well. The University has a program that is similar to the Raleigh program although it is conducted on a “compressed” delivery schedule and is considered a bit more aggressive. Our consult there is on Wed morning of this week, 8/22. We are also still trying to schedule a second opinion consult at UNC and are hopeful to have that appt early this week or perhaps next week at the latest.
Our main prayer this week is that God will lead us directly into the treatment program He has planned for us and that we will be able to get started with that asap. Timing is critical.
We are in a difficult place and my heart grieves at the path that lies before us. Given that, still we know we are in God’s hands, and there is simply no better place to be.
Thank you all for your prayerful love and support.
Kay and family
