I was given indication by the surgeon last week that my lymph nodes were not maligeant. However you don't completely start celebrating until you see the pathology report. Now we can rejoice! I was clear of any cancer and the diagnosis is SARCOIDOSIS. In laymen's terms, its the inflammation of the lymph nodes around the lungs - duh? They really don't know where it came from nor how to get rid of it! But its not fatal and it can be treated. This month has been completely surreal. From hearing your doctor tell you it might be a tumor, hogdkins or lymphoma and I had to cancel my long awaited mission trip to Asia. Nevertheless, God's faithfulness to me and the wy He used this situation will be a highlight in my life and ministry. Not to mention the way he used this situation to amplify my preaching on trial from James. Certainly as I have entitled this series - "Fuel for Our Faith" -- He has done it to my faith! Thanks to all that have prayed - i hope you faith has been fueled by the way I have tried to handle it. All praise and glory and honor belongs to the Lord God!
