My husband, Jim, was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Jim
had an appointment with a surgeon, but no surgery date has been set for his
lung removal because that surgeon was called out of town. Later this week Jim will
have another appointment with another surgeon. The educated guess is that the
surgery will be within ten days. We are both relieved and stressed with this
information; glad that the cancer will be removed from his body, but distressed
that he has to have such an invasive surgery. Cancer is never good, but we are
blessed that Jim’s cancer is no worse than it is. There are so many families
that are suffering with so much more. We both appreciate your encouraging words and your prayers. Two phrases often repeated in our home: “It
is what it is.” and “We’ll play the cards that are dealt to us.”
