Subject: Wednesday's surgery

Dear friends,

Well, I write this morning with as heavy a heart as I can
remember...Carol came through a long surgery yesterday,
but the news from it is everything that we dreaded hearing.
She did have endometrial cancer - the lining of the uterus
wall, That, we knew going into the hysterectomy. But,
the mass on the ovary was malignant as well. It had been
there for a while. Now we await final Pathology reports
from that cancer; to see which was primary, what type
of cancer it was, etc. There were a few bright spots -
lymph nodes in that region are fine, and her liver is as
well, as are other major organs that they looked at.

Suffice it to say - Carol is a pretty sick girl, and the road
ahead of us looks bleak at present. She still faces a mas-
tectomy after the first breast surgery, as they weren't able
to get all of the margins cleanly, due to the "feelers" that
branched out. At least for now, all of the major tumors
are out, and any cancer left in her is microscopic. But,
a stiff course of chemo, and some radiation is in her
future, of course.

Thank you - from the bottom of our hearts - for praying
for Carol, and all of us. And now, we pray for a miracle
of complete healing, if it's God's will. My brother Lin-
dsay is with us till tomorrow, Chris (Shannon's husband)
will join us here over the weekend, and then Carol's
sister Sherri flies in next Wednesday for a week - just
about the time Carol should get back here where we're
staying.

Keeep storming the Throne!

With thanks and love,

Alan
