Prayers sent for your Dad, and all others who have to deal with the effects of this scourge - family, friends, et al. May our Lord watch over all of you.

I called his room last night. He was pretty out of it.They went in just up to the mass to do a biopsy. Depending on the results of that, they will go down his through his stomach to do one from the the other side. The hospital still has the stupid Covid restrictions in place. Visiting hours end at 6:00 pm and only 2 visitors allowed per day and you can't switch off. 2. That's it. They just bumped that up from 1.

Got up to the hospital yesterday and they discharged him as soon as Mom and I walked in.
It's cancer. 15cm mass on the colon.
They will call Monday and give us the details of the pre-surgery requirements and the surgery date. I sure hope they schedule it after Fathers Day. My wife and I just bought her parents lake cabin and we have plans to have a huge Fathers Day celebration out there next Saturday.
I want my Dad there...

Dad made it through surgery Ok. His tumor was the size of a softball and grew into his small intestine so they had to remove part of that too. Now they will send the mass and the lymph nodes into pathology to see if it has spread. He felt his liver and didn't feel any masses or anything there so that's good. We certainly appreciate all the prayers and well wishes.

Thank you. The surgeon is 99% positive it is malignant. Now we pray it hasn’t spread.

I can't find it now, Billy Graham says Prayer is the most powerful force in the universe.
