Surgery is Scheduled

Thursday, March 18

Charles and Tyler are back in Memphis. Tyler arrived Tuesday at St Jude's for scans and unfortunately it revealed that his spots still remain in his lungs. We know that God has a plan and we seek his understanding through this trial. After many meetings with doctors, they have decided to operate on Monday on one of Tyler's lungs followed by chemotherapy. The doctor's want Tyler to remain at St Jude through his first round of chemo. Hopefully the remaining chemo treatments will be in Arizona.

Charles flew back to Arizona this morning and Tyler stayed with Glen, his grandpa. Gina Foster is driving to Nashville to meet Glen and Tyler. Tyler is coming to Louisville to spend the weekend with the Fosters. Tyler will return Sunday afternoon and Charles is flying back to Memphis and will remain there until Wednesday. Sarah will fly into Memphis on Wednesday and Charles will fly home. Whew!!!!!! Wow that is a lot of flying back and forth isn't it?

Christian has been very sick for a week now with a high fever. Since they haven't lived there long they don't have a pediatrician and he had to go to an immediate care. They really don't know what the cause of the fever is so they need prayer answered in this area. Sarah doesn't want to leave Christian if he is still sick on Wednesday, when she is planning to fly to Memphis. The family is being attacked by Satan right now and the only combat I know is prayer. They can use your prayers also!

Pray for Christian's health, travel back and forth from Memphis to Arizona, Tyler to remain healthy while visiting Louisiville, Tyler's surgery and chemo treatment and for the entire family to feel God's strenghthening presence and His healing peace.

Stay close!
