Sad News

My only remaining uncle had day surgery today to deal with a blocked intestine. When the doctors opened him up they found advanced stages of cancer. They sewed him up and sent him home but he has to return to the hospital soon to see whether there are any treatment options. My mom couldn't remember all the information but this is the gist of things concerning her brother. Please keep both of them in your prayers.

Oh Penny, I'm so sorry. And how frightening for your poor uncle, not to mention distressing for your mother. I hope they can make him comfortable.

Cancer seems to be popping up far too much recently. Hopefully he can find doctors he is comfortable with to make the best decisions possible; and also keep a positive attitude. I will say and a prayer for him.
