Surgery Went Well

Greetings All,

We want to give you an update on Nathan’s surgery yesterday (Tuesday, September 30). We praise God because everything went well. The surgeon was able to remove the nodule in the lung with 3 small incisions called thoracoscopy surgery. This was a much less invasive surgery and the recovery time is much faster. Nathan was even able to come home with us last night. We give thanks to God that the nodule came out easily! The nodule was sent to pathology for testing so we won’t know the pathology report for several more days. On Monday we also learned that the CT of the abdomen and pelvis that was taken on Friday did not show any new growth of cancer tumors. For this we are very thankful. Thanks for remembering Nathan and our family in your prayers.

Tim, Carol and Nathan
