Lung Surgery

I am scheduled to have lung surgery, to remove the nodule, on September the 30th. Today I meet with the surgeon’s nurse, anesthetist, and my cancer doctor. Even though I had to meet with all of these people, I have good news to share :) The good news is that the MRI of my brain, CT scan, and bone marrow biopsy show nothing for the doctors to be concerned about. This means that they are focusing on this one nodule on my right lung. My prayer is this surgery can be accomplished with three inserts into my body. If it can be done in this way, it is more likely that I will be able to leave the hospital the same day of surgery. And I would appreciate your prayers as well.

peace,
Nathan
