Jerrie is home from the hospital today - 12/21/10 - following extensive surgery to remove a tumor from her lung. She said the surgeon was unable to reach the tumor, even though he removed a rib, and also made an incision through her armpit in attempting to do so. The tumor is malignant, as she reported earlier, when seeking prayer from DS members. She is in good spirits, and when her incisions have healed a little, she will probably be back here updating everyone. Please continue to pray for her. Thanks - Doye

Lori - I will ask her about phone calls. She just got home today. I had left a message on her answering machine and was surprised when she called me. If you have been calling in the past, I'm sure it's OK. However, I hesitate to give her no. without asking. I know she appreciates the concern of you, and all other DS friends!

Prayers are going up for you from Florida. My husband had the kind of surgery you had, so I know how extensive it is. I pray for your healing in whatever way God has for you. Best wishes for strength and health!
