Surgery was moved up to Friday the 23rd. Don came through it very well. It took only 4 1/2 hours. He was talking and moving his limbs before he left the OR. He will be going home on Sunday. What a happy relief! Thanks to all who prayed. Please continue to pray for a complete recovery...

Staples were not removed until last week due to remaining swelling. Don will start 6 weeks (Mon thru Fri) radiation treatments to try to eradicate any remaining tumor that they were not able to remove in surgery. He is such a trooper... Hopefully this will all be behind him soon....

Don was experiencing shortness of breath. Turned out not to be a blood clot but pneumonia in the left lung. Not hospitalized but home with medication. Slow but easy....

Thank you everyone for your continued prayers. Don continues to recover.
He works every morning and makes the 62 mile round trip every afternoon for his 10 minute radiation treatment. He has completed 19 out of 33 treatments. I am so very proud of him...
