A New Boulder

Well, there is a new boulder in our path. Actually the boulder is only new to us but it is NOT new to God. The small lesions that the doctors have been watching in Jim's lungs since August 2008 have grown a wee tee tiny bit plus there are 2 itsy bitsy ones. After lots of testing the doctors have concluded that the kidney cancer is in Jim's lungs. He/we will be checking into MD Anderson on July 13th for treatments with high dose IL-2. Please check out our caringbridge site and bookmark it as one you check often and sign up to receive e-mail updates. I will be using this one site to keep everyone up to date on everything. It is just too difficult to update blogs, facebook, and e-mails. We so covet your prayers; they greatly encourage us and allow us to keep moving forward....keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus. Please share our site with your blog community to any and all that will pray for us as we scale this boulder. Our desire is for God to be glorified and we are begging Him to do that through Jim's healing! You can get caught up by reading all the journal entries and the "my story" section on caring bridge. Never in a million years did I think I would doing this but then, why not me?
