I guess I spoke too soon...

Just a few days ago, I was celebrating that Terry's test results had went very well. As the posting title suggests, I spoke too soon. After the pathology report, the doctors found some cancerous cells in Terry's lymph nodes. What started out as just a little brown spot on his arm, has turned into a nightmare. They have scheduled him for surgery again next week. This time, they will remove all of the lymph nodes under his right arm. Please keep all of us in your prayers.

I'm Back!!!!

I am not going to promise that I will blog everyday, or even once a week - but I will try harder. Let me catch you up on things -

Tia - is doing great!!! She is our little monkey. She climbs on everything!!! She is a lot of fun and we love her dearly. She seems to have adapted very well. Her two favorite men are her daddy and her papa. I think mommy comes in a close third.

Tessa is adjusting to having a little sister. While she loves Tia like crazy, she is a little jealous at times.

Trenton - Trent is playing soccer again with his Upward team. He loves to play and has really improved over the past year.

Tanner - is counting the days until school is out. I think he is ready for 6th grade next year. I am not sure if I am ready. It is hard to believe I will have a high schooler, a middle schooler and two kindergartners. It looks like it is going to be a very busy year.

Taylor - is doing wonderfully. She is such a blessing. I hope I tell her enough how proud I am of the young woman she has become.

And as for Terry and I. We are still rejoicing in the news from his doctor. That was a very tough time, but I know God has changed us through all of it.

Over the summer we have a few short vacations planned. We will travel to Holiday World in June for a vacation with our dear friends, the Lanig's. This is an annual trip that the entire family looks forward to.

I will try to update more often. I will promise some exciting news coming soon regarding our business, My Red Thread - so stay tuned.

PRAISE GOD!!!

Terry had his surgery this morning to remove some of the lymph nodes from his arm. The doctor said that they were slightly enlarged, but he does not feel that the cancer has spread. PRAISE GOD!!!! They will know for sure by next week. If this is the case, his chances of ever getting this form of cancer again is less than 5%. Those are pretty good odds.

Thank you all so much for your prayers!!!! We really felt your love and support today.


Till later....

Needing Your Prayers

Sorry for the delay in writing, but things have been far from calm lately. We can sure use your prayers over the next few days. Terry will be going in for surgery tomorrow morning. The doctors have decided to remove some of his lymph nodes to see if the cancer has progressed. Our prayer is that the lymph nodes are completely clear.

We really appreciate all the support we have received over the last few weeks.
