Georgia went in for a colon procedure last week and 2 huge polyps were taken out and sent in for testing. She is not a big lady, she is little and has a weakened immune system. She went through the procedure just fine, but after being off solids for 2 days a little weak and dizzy. Yesterday her daughter took her into emergency because of it. I went in yesterday to the ER and spent a couple hours with her, while her daughter picked her son up from school and took him to a babysitter. Georgia was discouraged, so we talked. My husband prayed with her over the phone earlier in the day, she said that was so comforting.
Today she called, and she is going to have surgery to removed the right colon, where the cancer was found. She had a family meeting with her daughters, and decided on the surgery. She said she will wait for the results to decide if chemo is going to happen or not. She will be 77 in July and is more interested in her quality of life then quantity of life at this point. She is a believer in Christ, and she is putting her faith in God. She has multiple Bible Studies going on and is taking a break from them right now. Doctors say it will be a least 3 months before she should continue.
Her doctor is also a believer, and got down on his knees and prayed by her bed before they talked. How blessed it that!

Daily scripture
Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land that the LORD promised on oath to your forefathers. Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to humble you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.
Deuteronomy 8:1-3 (NIV)
