say a prayer today...

tim has some "weirdness" going on...keep him in your prayers today.



his newly found tumor behind his left arm is giving him some major grief and we are heading to the hospital this morning for a radiology oncology consult to see if they think some radiation therapy could shrink the tumor and give him some relief. there is a good possiblity that today he will have his radiation "markings" and begin treatments. (very UNEXPECTED).



if they do start the radiation it will only be for pain control purposes...we have been told (which we already knew) that this would in no way be "CURATIVE". the goal of the day is to give him some relief...and for those of you who were with him yesterday...he was not keeping anything from you...THIS IS ALL RELATIVELY NEW-SINCE 3PM THURSDAY. we knew about the tumor BUT his arm started with the spasms yesterday afternoon and has been getting worse every couple of hours.



it is alittle after 3AM and he is up popping his morphine...pray that this treatment will give him some pain control.



we will be in touch when we know anything. we do have a PET SCAN scheduled for october 15th. the day that megan turns 18 we will find out how much her dad "glows"...goody! (some days are just a bit rougher than others-i hate to see him in pain-keep praying)



thanks for all the "essay" comments. (she wasn't too upset when she found out-thanks craig II)



thanks for checking in



tim and tammy
