Prayers Needed with More Chemo

My dad got his results from the oncologist. The small spots on his lungs that they found during surgery have grown slightly and he has some small spots on his liver. So they are going to do additional chemo. He will have 4 doses of 46 hours of chemo. He will do this for 4 weeks and then we will see where he stands. He is not starting chemo this week because they want him to get his phlegm issues worked out first. He will see an ENT doctor this week.

We believe in the power of positive thought. We also believe that God does everything for a reason. When this whole process started my Dad was supposed to have 2 rounds of chemo. He never got his 2nd round because of other issues. So the small spots of cancer stayed in his lungs. If it were not for his phlegm issues and the discovery of more cells the next round of chemo would not have happened to get rid of the cancer in his lungs. It isn't the result that we were expecting, but maybe he always needed that 2nd round of chemo to totally eradicate this terrible disease. The next few weeks won't be fun, but luckily my Dad is a fighter and one of the strongest men I know. Now he will be able to live with NO cancer in his body. WE BELIEVE.....Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. It has helped tremendously so far.
