I lost my best friend to cancer last year. It's been a difficult transition for me and I miss her everyday. She fought for 3 years. It's a horrible disease but keep this in mind - There is someone, somewhere who has survived every kind of cancer! If they can do it, so can Terry.

Thank-you all for the comforting words. I think what really has had me upset was when I talked to her last week, they were getting ready to fly the next day to Georgia for a friend's wedding. They were to be gone Wednesday until yesterday. So I went through all those days thinking how good it was they were able to attend, given Terry's condition. I proceeded to call her this morning to welcome them home, only to find out they never went due to his declining condition that precipitated the brain scan which then discovered his cancer had metastisized (sp) there. I could have comforted her all weekend, but didn't know. I especially appreciate all the prayers and hearing how some people actually do get a miracle. I needed to hear that. I will let you know how he fairs. Bless you all.

I found out today that Terry is scheduled next Tuesday for a procedure called gamma knife radio surgery to treat the spot on his brain. It is a one time procedure, and then back to treating the lung cancer. Please pray for him on this day for his surgery to go well. Thank-you.
