8/14/10
Well its been awhile. I had a Cat Scan yesterday to see if my infection was clearing. The result was not so good. Apparently my cancer has spread throughout my lungs and a cure is no longer a possibly based on the medical opinion. I was given 6-12 month. This was unexpected and quite a shock. Within minuted of calling some friends the Body of Christ was at teh Hospital to comfort. He is amazing. I made the last phone calls to people this am and decided not to return to work 9.1.10 as planned. On wednesday we are meeting with the chemo dr. to see about a regement to slow things down. Kathy and I will then decide what to do. There are some things I want to do and I so not want to be impaired by chemo during this homestretch. I would ask for your support and prayers especially for Kathy as this is hard on her. In addidition please remeber my friend Duane whose father passed away from Cancer 2 days ago. Its been difficult to share because I know many of you will be hurt and grieving. Thanks for everything. JUrgen

Dear Jurgen, my brave friend, It's so difficult to understand the reasons for some things happening in our lives. We have faith that "everything happens for a reason" and that should make this easier to understand and accept..but I've got to be honest..it doesn't. At least not right now. But I won't dwell on the bad news, I'm here to share what I DO understand...and that is that you have enriched my life and I am grateful. You have been a friend, a Protector, a comedian! a teacher, a listener, an advisor, and an elephant(you NEVER FORGET!>>>my in-car make-up application..). You have helped me so many times and in many ways, Jurgen. Please let me help you and Kathy in any way I can. You are in our prayers always(Jamie and myself). Love, Joan
