Great News--Successful Surgery!!!

Tammy just called me to say that Ron is out of surgery (started around 11:30 this morning). They succussfully removed the prostate. There is no evidence that the cancer had spread to the lymph nodes or any where else outside the prostate itself. Tissue samples were taken to confirm this. Those tests won't be back for some time. The doctor feels very pleased with the results.

If the tissue samples all come back negative, it appears there will be no need for follow-up treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation!

We are all praising God for this blessed outcome and the generous support of so many friends and loved ones!
