The power of prayer
Two weeks ago my father-in-law was diagnosed with cancer in his right lung. The cancer was so bad that he was suppose to have surgery tomorrow morning in Little Rock at UAMS to remove the entire right lung.
Our entire family has been devistated at this news. We have had him placed on church prayer lists, and been saying prayers every single day that God will protect him and heal him. He has been so sick that he couldn't do anything without getting winded and having to sit down before he would sometimes black out from not getting enough oxygen. Yesterday the doctor called him in to have one final CT scan before he went to Little Rock today to be preped for the dangerous surgery. After the CT scan the doctor called him back on his cell phone and told him that he had to come back down there right away because there was something that he had to show him. David knew something was either really bad or really good because he went to Wal-mart the night before and walked all over the store and never ran out of breath or had to sit and rest. When he got back to the clinic the doctor showed him the CT pictures from two weeks ago and the one from yesterday.. The doctor didn't know what to say! The cancer is GONE!! The right lung is completly clear! They have absolutly no explanation for it at all. They used the same machine both times so there was nothing wrong with the machine. Now he doesn't have to have surgery or chemo or anything for that matter. The doctors will continue to watch him over the following months to make sure that nothing comes back, etc. He is just beside himself with joy and thanks to God for giving him a second chance to live his life and watch his grandkids grow up! This is proof that God works miracles.  I have attached some pictures of him that I took the day we found out about the cancer.. I thought that these might be some of the last ones we ever took. |
