Thank you to those who have lifted us up in prayer during this time of uncertainty. We know now that Dave does indeed have enlarged lymph nodes - not a salivary gland as the specialist first thought. Two of the glands will need to be removed surgically, and the other slightly enlarged glands in his jaw area will be treated with medication. While they are removing the glands, the doctor will also investigate the calcification and cyst or mold/virus which appeared on the CT scan in one of Dave's sinus cavities. We're also awaiting the results of additional blood work.
Not the news I wanted to hear. But we have a clear course of treatment to follow. So now we just do the next step and move on from there. Please keep us in your prayers!

Mary Ellen--my thoughts will be with you and your family as you face the uncertainty. At least you live in an area known for great healthcare. Keep the faith...

I just dropped in from Kat at Heart 2 Heart's blog. I join in praying for you and your family. My sister's husband was hospitalized last night and there is much uncertainty right now. He was given 3 pints of blood and is currently undergoing many tests. His name is David if you would like to pray for him.
I joined to follow your blog and I look forward to getting to know you.
Blessings, andrea

Sending positive health vibes your husband's way. Take care.
This is my first visit to your blog and I am praying that Dave will be healed fully, and I always add to my prayers "healing, according to thy will".
I hope the surgery and treatment will be very successful.
You have a lovely blog here.
