Dear Prayer Warriors,
I want to give you a quick update on how things are going. Al and I stand amazed at our God, as we have seen Him raise up countless people to pray on my behalf. Those many prayers have lifted me up when I was too weak and tired to pray for myself.
If you recall, my CA 19-9 level (the primary marker for pancreatic cancer) was roughly 4100 before we left for MD Anderson. The next blood test after our return home showed that the CA 19-9 had dropped to 2856, which is a 30% drop. Just this week, another test indicated that the level had dropped even further to 1953, another 30%! We praise God for allowing us to have this encouraging news. My prayer has been to feel well enough to enjoy my family, friends and whatever ministry God has for me. I can tell you that in these last 2 weeks, I have felt much stronger and more like my old self. They have been the best 2 weeks since my cancer diagnosis and I am grateful for that.
In these coming days, please pray for my next CT scan, which is scheduled for the 18th of March. We are hopeful that the tumor will at least be stable, if not shrinking, given the encouraging news from my blood tests. I would also ask that you please pray for relief, as I am still having some pain in the abdominal area. We continue to be so grateful for all of your prayers and support.

Praying God will continue to take away pain, take down numbers and barriers to healing and recovery. Merciful Lord only you could do this. May you provide Nancy with the full measure of your strength and love and healing in this time.
