Tyler is feeling great! Sarah said Tyler looks and feels better than he has in a long time. He is maneuvering around on only 1 crutch and putting weight on his leg when he walks. His hair is coming in "Mohawk" style. He is remaining on oral antibiotics until they get the results of his next chest ct scan which will be next week. They have waited patiently for 3 weeks when they received the news that there was a small spot on Tyler's lung. The spot is only 3 millimeters and is located on the outside on the bottom of his right lung. The doctor's are confident that if the spot is still there in another week they can successfully remove it. The surgery is called thoracotomy. The surgery would be a major surgery where they would be removing the part of his lung where the spot is located. Sarah and Charles have been in constant prayer since they learned the news a few weeks ago. They have a peace and can feel the prayers from everyone.
I want to suggest a special day of fasting and prayer for Tyler. We need to ask as many people as possible to pray that this spot will disappear and Tyler will be cured of his cancer. The family is so ready to get on with a normal life. They would love to move back to Louisville and be surrounded by all of their friends again. Thursday and Friday are designated days to fast and pray earnestly for Tyler. If we pick one or the other of the days to pray and fast, Tyler will be covered in prayer for a 48 hour period. We know the power of prayer and we know that all things are possible with God!
I wanted to share the final total raised from the Christian Academy St. Jude fundraiser.......$52,854.50. Isn't that amazing...God is good! Thanks to everyone who participated.
Thanks for your support and prayers. The family truly couldn't make it without them.
Stay close! Kim

Hey Tyler and family. I'm excited to hear how well you're doing. I'm praying for strength, patience, wisdom... whatever it takes - not just to get through this time, but to continue to rejoice as God has strengthened you do so far. You guys are an inspiration to us all and a reminder to come before God in intercession. I'm happy to join in this special time of lifting you all up before God.
