Medical Update - Eric / February 23

Greetings in Jesus.
​
Eric's out-patient surgery to implant the Y90 beads was yesterday morning.  The doctor came to talk with us after the procedure and really seemed very encouraged.  He said the scans showed that the radiation was right where it needed to be and that it had not moved into other parts of the liver or beyond.  

The radiation has a very short half-life and will do its process of killing the cancer in the next few days.  Because the beads have stayed where they intended, any collateral damage to the liver should be minimal.  Then it will take time for the liver to adjust and heal.  After three months (end of May, first of June) he will have the scans redone to see the results.
Until then, the doctor said, "live life normally".  We are therefore taking him as his word, we will be participating in the Regional Directors' meeting in Fort Myers (March 6-11).  Traveling next week, we are working on two church appointments and then after our return to INDY, on about March 22, we will be flying to Queretaro, Mexico and will be there until May 1.  During the first week of May we will have two follow-up appointments with our general doctor and the Liver Specialists and then as we mentioned, scans will be redone at the end of May/first of June.

Again, we are grateful for the prayers and notes of encouragement.  This Medical Update will be the last we will do until the scans are redone in May/June unless there is an urgent need. We would ask you to keep Eric's healing on your prayer list over the next three months.

Blessings and love always.

Eric & Dee
