Cancer Is In Mike's Brain

Mike had a doctor's appointment yesterday and he found out that the cancer has spread to his brain. The MRI showed a very small spot that has been affected.

Judy said she was scared to death yesterday when Mike came home for lunch. She said one minute he was eating soup and the next minute, his head was on the table and he was sound asleep. She made him go to bed and told him he was not going back to work. I guess he slept most of the day then and the doctor said that if she was not able to wake up Mike, or if he woke up and was not making sense or was confused, he would have to go to the ER.

Mike is now on medication to try and reduce the swelling on his brain. If they are able to get the swelling reduced, he will have radiation. She said today he is doing better than what he was yesterday except he was up with diarrhea a lot last night.

Bill stopped to talk to Mike on Thursday night and Mike said that he can no longer drive the big trucks at work because he doesn't have the strength.

Mike needs everyones prayers now more than ever so please continue to pray and pass it on.
