We just got back from the oncologist. We both liked her very much. We were hopeful for better news. We found out Byron is borderline on whether to treat with chemo or instead just go for quality of life and comfort measures. The tumor is pretty aggressive and there is cancer in the liver, so it is Stage 4 as we imagined. Byron has decided to try chemo. Dr. has given us medicine to stimulate his appetite so we can work on building his strength up – he has not been eating much. The chemo treatment course will start next week. Sorry the news to share isn’t better. It has really been a long, tough morning. Byron is resting now.
Prayer Requests: Pray for what we learned today, for the blood thinners to work on the clots in his liver and spleen, for appetite, for strength and for control of his pain.

Father I pray that the blood thinners work to remove the clots from Byron's liver and spleen, Father give Byron the appetite he needs to build strength in his body to fight this cancer, take all of his pain away that he is experiencing at this time. It's by your hand that you control it all Father. I ask that you heal my cousin, keep him here with us. I also pray Father that you keep Mary in your hands, comfort her giving her strength and Faith that you can heal all illness. I send this prayer to you in Jesus Name. Amen
