Okay, so even though this cancer thing has been pretty difficult to grasp. We have found another silver lining on this cloud! Brennan had his doctor's appointment on Friday to find out if his cancer had spread. There was a concern that it had spread because his lymphnode glands were all swollen. So, they repeated the test that confirmed that, and also did another test that checks in your body where any cancer is located. The test confirmed the cancer in his throat, but didn't find ANY swollen lymphnode glands! (Which means the cancer has not spread!) Our doctor said he has no idea how the lymphnode glands could have been swollen like that one week and not the other...but I do know! I know it is because of all of your prayers and the mercies of our Heavenly Father! Thank you for your prayers and thoughts.
Brennan starts his radiation therapy on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. I am happy to report that there shouldn't be too many side effects from these treatments. Luckily, it will not be anywhere near as bad as a treatment like Chemo. There will be some discomfort, etc., but I am very glad that it will be more managable and I know Brennan can do it! Again, thanks for all of your prayers! I know there is a reason for us to go through these trials, and I am just so thankful we have the friends we have to go through it with us!
Sariah and Brent--Thanks for yesterday! We had a lot of fun! I am glad that Brennan got to go out and blow off some frustrations/stress hunting. Too bad he got sick! I had fun at your house too Sariah! Sydney sure loves your girls! We are gonna miss you!
