Thank you everyone and indeed. Praise the LORD!
Also, much priase to Cancer Treatment Centers of America.
I had planned to write a post about them in the near future but when I saw a post asking about the Seatttle Cancer Care Alliance by Alska FE a moment ago I had to reply. This place is just plain amazing and if anyone here gets, or has or has a loved one fighting Cancer please please get in touch with me and please do not consider any other option for treatments.
Here is my reply to Alaska FE's query about the Seattle Cancer Alliance, which is MUCH closer to us:
"Sherri and I checked the Seattle Cancer Care alliance out, they are mostly just a refferal center for the two traditional cancer hospitals there. Those being the Fred Hutchison Cancer Center and Swedish aka University of Washington Hospital. Nothing new or special about them. And we live pretty close to Seattle. Much closer than where I am now after my wife getting cancer/tumor removal surgery just today.
Right now I am typing this from a hotel paid for by the Cancer Treatment Centers of America facility in Zion Illinois and I arrived here with a ticket to fly here paid for by them. Second trip out that they have paid for. All of my food - and great food at that - is also covered as is this quite deluxe two room hotel suite I am in. All a part of the treatment plan covered by our quite ordinary health insurance. This place GENUINLY recognizes the economic realities of a cancer diagnosis, as well as the important role that is played by the spouse or cargiver and not only honors that with lip service but cuts deeply into their own profit margins to pay for these things. Amazing to me in this day and age of bottom dollar driven business models.
FAR more important, though, is the care that we have recieved here. Cancer Treatment Centers of America not only have the latest and best treatment plans and surgeons such as IORT 'super' radiation equipement and much more, but they integrate modern high tech state of the art (truly) medicine with naturopathic medicine and nutritionist care. Also counseling and a good sized pastoral staff to take care of the whole person.
Then, there are all of the little things that one would not think about perhaps except for my own time spent in hospitals this past year. Things like the free Limo ride to and from the airport, free shutttles and rides, heated comfortable hospital gowns, pre op antibiotic drip and special soaps to use at home or in the hotel before surgery to prevent staph infections like the one I got which nearly killed me this last January, lots of pre and post care and counsleing,low cost in house pharmacy with all of the natural med's and herbs PLUS the modern RX type medicines, I am sure I am forgetting something else important but I think you get the idea.
Here is the big difference, all of the above being important as well, of course... EVERYONE who works at the center here right down to the meal prep and cleaning people - and I DO mean everyone- knows that they are working somewhere special and are part of something big and unique. All of the workers you will come in contact with also realize that folks they are dealing with have a LOT on thier plate with a cancer diagnosis and so might need extra care and patinece and attention. I have never in my whole life seen true synergy and mission awareness in an entire company or organization like I am witnessing here and noticed in spades during our first visit here two weeks ago. If you or someone you know come here you will be amazed at all of this and get not only the best possible treatment, but the best possible care.
Personally, my mind is now such that to me there simply is NO OTHER PLACE that one should even consider going to if he or she or a loved one gets a cancer diagnosis.
PM with my contact info is now incoming. Call me if you care to.
Blessings,
MARK

Absolutely fantastic! I won't quit praying, though.

Mark, that sure is excellent news. I felt great reading your post, I can't even imagine how you and Sherri must have felt when you were told the good news. Never underestimate the power of Campfire prayers! Prayers to your family for continued good health will continue. God Bless you both.

A hearty Praise the Lord from here, too. I ran the cancer gauntlet with my 1st wife 6 years ago. She wasn't so lucky. It's nasty stuff.
