Rejoice

The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice.

We just got back from the Dr. for Matt's followup appointment. He was able to get those staples out! Woo whoo.

We got the pathology reports back- during surgery they removed lymph nodes for testing. All 37 lymph nodes that they tested came back NEGATIVE for cancer!!!

So it was contained all to the area that was removed.

We have an appt next week with an Oncologist to start the discovery phase of what is needed for chemo.

but - until then - we will be relaxing in the Maine sunshine, eating lobster, and praising GOD.
