I want to thank all of you for your prayers!  The lymph nodes were  
perfectly clear!!!!  God is good!
 
I had prayed for wisdom for my doctor concerning treatment.  He  
had consulted other doctors at Harvard and in New York to get  
opinions.  His recommendation was Chemo/Radiation.  I fully
trust him and had told God that I would be content with whatever  
was recommended. The doctor said I could get another opinion  
 if I felt I needed one, but I told him I had prayed for wisdom for him
and that I was fine with it.
 
Therefore, I go in Monday to get the radiation settings to begin  
treatment next Thursday. Also on Thursday, I will have a PICC  
Line inserted into my arm which will lead to my heart. I will carry  
a chemo pack on me for a week.  The PICC line will remain. Later  
on, I will have another week of chemo. Radiation should last 
6 - 8 weeks, daily treatments Monday-Friday.
 
Please continue to pray for complete healing, strength and minimal  
adverse effects from the treatments.
 
Thanks!
 
Connie
