Goodmorning everyone
I'll keep this brief since Ramona has a pass this morning and is able to head out to church.
Anyway, the meeting with Dr. Wong felt like it was covered in prayer. Thank you so much for praying. Dr. Wong was very blunt with us and told us the cold hard 'facts' of what he believes. He still doesn't believe chemo will be a cure and therefore it makes it much easier to ask that he stop chemo. This will be the last round of chemo (ending tomorrow morning!) and we are very seriously considering going to the Oasis of Hope as soon as we can.
Also, the meeting with Dr. Waddell also had some surprises for us. Dr. Waddell is very willing to experiment and has something for Ramona other than the RFA. I forget the name of it, but it is a focused beam of radiation that they have bean experimenting on tumors for two years. We have a telehealth appointment with the Toronto radiologist at lunch time on monday.
This all deserves many details and humanly speaking can be quite overwhelming.
More to come,
Earl

Hey guys. Thanks for updating. Been wondering. It must be a relief in some ways to be done chemo again. May the next few weeks be refreshing. Also praying about your big decisions re: Oasis of Hope and the discussion with the radiologist.

Blessings and prayers from very far away. Joanna

Thank you for sharing. Here is something I read today. "The fact is… if you’re a child of God… He is there in the boat with you. And He will eventually still the storm in your life.
The One who has power over demons, and the One who has power over disease, also has power over despair and the disturbances in your life. Jesus is your peace in the middle of the storm. So cling to Him today!"
Praying that you will have peace about where to go from here,
Betty

Praise God for His presence in the meeting with Dr. Wong.
The problems loom so huge over your heads; rest assured, the God who lives inside of yous in so much bigger than these problems.
We, along with you, believe in miracles. Most of all, we believe in the GOD of miracles!
Love you,
Gloria and Robert
