MRI scheduled

10:45am Thursday, Sept 2

My Dad

I would like to ask your prayers for my dad.

He has been having painful attacks in his upper abdomen. He has a loss
of appetite, nausea, and has lost weight within the past few weeks
without trying. He doesn't have a great health record to begin
with...diabetes, super high cholesterol, high blood pressure....

He had a CT scan this morning (8/31/10) and the dr looked at the cat scan and said
the top of his pancreas is very large. The rest of the pancreas is
inflamed like pancreatitis.

The dr. is ordering an mri to look closeup at the area to see if it's a
tumor (cancer)

Right now, my dad is at home-- only allowed to drink bland, non-fatty
foods...he is not allowed to go to work until this inflammation goes
down. This may require hospitalization.

The dr said if he finds a tumor and it's pancreatic cancer that there
isn't much else to do and it is a very aggressive cancer.

My dad says he does NOT want any chemo or radiation. He KNOWS the Lord
and I am so thankful that he is TRUSTING in Him. I am trying to stay
positive, but it is hard.


please pray!!


Thankyou!
Patty
