Just got back from the Kirklin Clinic. I had a CT scan and my 1 year follow-up appointment with Dr. Bolger. I first want to thank everybody who has been praying for the mass in my abdomen to shrink or disappear. Unfortunately this is not the case. The CT showed a slight growth in the mass. Dr. Bolger says he is a little concerned and is attempting to schedule a PET/CT scan to see if the growth is cancer cells. He has to submit this to the insurance company to see if they will approve it. He is pushing to get it approved and scheduled for the next two weeks. I also have a follow up with Dr. Einhorn in Indiana scheduled in the middle of September. Hopefully I can have the PET/CT before we go to see him, so he can make a call on where we go from here.
Thanks for praying and believing on our behalf. We are a little surprised by this development, but we know that God has His hand in this and we are resting in Him.
Grace and peace,
Clay

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you.’” [Jeremiah 29-11-12]
“Because of th Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” [Lamentations 3:22-23]
Over twenty-eight years ago I prayed the prayer Hannah prayed before conceiving Samuel. “‘ O Lord Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant’s misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the Lord for all the days of his life, . . . [I Samuel 1:11] You are His, He has planned each day of your life. Trust in His great love for you. Unending love, Mom
