One more post..

I told you I was going to make up for the last month....this is my latest news.
Please pray for my grandfather. The chemo seemed to be going fairly well and this week we actually got a report from the doctor saying that the main tumor in his lymph node appeared to be completely irradiated by the chemo. They were planning to do a couple more treatments just to make sure...starting this Tuesday. Praise God!
However, this week my grandfather got a sore throat and none of the antibiotics the doctors gave him seemed to help. Finally yesterday they took him into emergency because he was refusing to eat or drink and said that he couldn't swallow anything. The tests revealed a tumor in his neck partly blocking his throat. They think it is just some type of infection and have started him on another antibiotic until Tuesday. Then they will do some more tests and hopefully it will have shrunk. Otherwise, they will have to call in some more specialists to figure out what it is. They can't really do much this weekend because of the holiday.
Anyways, please pray for him and for my family. He seemed pretty confused and is not very corporative--refusing to eat and trying to get up on his own, etc... Last night he fell trying to go to the bathroom on his own, so now they have a monitor on him. It is hard to see my grandfather this way. Pray for wisdom for the doctors and grace and peace for us. God is on the throne and our desire is to glorify Him through our reactions to this situation.
