Well the weekend fared well, as I am healing from my appendectomy incisions and feel fine overall. Surgery is an easy way to lose a little weight, but it sure isn't the best way! This one will be quick: tomorrow I should find out, based on the PET/CT scan and bone marrow, what stage this little bugger is. It'll be anywhere from Stage I (localized), Stage II (in multiple areas, all below the diaphragm), Stage III (on both sides of the diaphragm, which must be the Mason-Dixon of cancer staging), or Stage IV (in my bone marrow).
Come on, low numbers, low numbers. We'll see. While the staging most likely won't change the treatment protocols, it will have a bearing on our likelihood of success. So, to me, Monday is a big day.
While I feel less and less that I'm writing about someone else and am coming more to a realization that this is a fight I cannot avoid, I know that any fear can be met by the Word and presence of the Lord. And that is my focus. Goodnight for now.
May the Lord bless and keep you.

God is the Father who is full of mercy and all comfort. He comforts us every time we have trouble, so when others have trouble, we can comfort them with the same comfort God gives us.
