"bill finally got his results from the brain and bone scan that they took almost two weeks ago. it has NOT spread into his brain nor his bones!!!!!!!! this is wonderful news because he now has a fighting chance of getting better. he is not out of the woods yet and still has the hurdle of going thru chemo and radiation. the doctor said because it is small cell cancer that the cancer can pop up anywhere at any time once they have taken care of the cancer in his lungs. they told us at the cancer center that if it had not spread that he should have a couple of years longer. well you know that those predictions are never accurate and people have been known to live much longer than the doctors thought they would.


i cannot thank everyone enough for all their prayers. i am happy to report that God was listening to all of you. Please keep Bill in your ongoing prayers as he still has lot to go thru and still has a very hard hill to climb. But we now know that he has a chance to climb that hill. lots of love to all of you for all your prayers,

i will continue to give you updates on how he is doing. pam"

I want to thank you all for caring and remembering him in your prayers, too. Pam is nobody you know, but it's nice to know that we can care for others we have never met. I deeply appreciate it. Hugs, Marji

Bill will certainly be in my prayers and thoughts. It is wonderful that the cancer has not spread (Praise God). His treatment will be tedious, undoubtedly, but I will pray that he can endure the process and reflect God's love throughout the time.
Love,
Jacqueline

Praise the Lord! There is nothing bigger than our God! We stand in agreement against the progression of this disease! May the Lord restore every day in health and joy that your brother spends fighting against the attack. Strength and courage to both Bill and Pam! Assure them of the prayerful support!

Beautiful Marji, this is fantastic news. You tell Bill that the doctors have absolutely no idea of how long he will live ... so, if they tell him 'a couple of years', tell Bill he has to live much longer ... just to prove them wrong! I know so many people who've done this, and a lot of them are still living, some thirty years later. I'll be keeping you, Bill, Pam and all your family in my thoughts and prayers. Love you sweetie xxx

I will add him again and your little baby also for recovery....IF you can find SHARK LIVER OIL then that helps with the cancer battle also...as sharks have been known to have the highest immune system, the shark liver oil will help to battle the cells also....I have a friend that was given 6 months at the most.he had it along his esaphagus and lymphs...he was told about it, started taking it along with chemo...he has been cancer free for some time now, and you would never guess he had it....I am not sure about the whole details of the stuff and cannot remember where he got it from, but it helps....hope you can find it...you need the real stuff not a kick off
