  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Please pray for me, and my mom and my sister Jadi. We are leaving today at 4 oclock to D.C...Walter Reed hospital to be exact. And have plans to be able to stay as long as Tuseday if needed.We are told that the biopsy process, which is tomorrow, is a very dangerous process. Remember David in your prayers too. He will be here with the three babies, and I'm a little worried about that.Pray for my brother.Pray for misdiagnosis.Pray for complete restoration. Pray the healing blood of Jesus.And pray for grace to accept his will, no matter what.Pray for traveling mercys, I will be driving.

 

Godbless us all,

Lori
 
Hi all! Praise the Lord, he is merciful and so worthy to be praised.Friends, it has been the longest week of my life. I just got home from D.C. My brother has just been so strong and so faithful, and I believe God has honored him for that. Just never down.Always tough. "This will not take me down without a fight"

 

This mass is inoperable.It's the size of a golfball. And it is behind his brain stem,leaning more towards his right side.So therefore his left side is being affected.The whole left side.It is amazing to me, what can happen from just a little pressure.There are resevoirs in your head where the fluid flows through.The mass is blocking the one on the right and part of the one on the left, so therefore, he developed hydrosephalous.He had to have a shunt put in, to give the fluid an out from his head. This is why he had headaches, seizures, and blurred vision. They put this "halo" on his head, to give them a computerized image of his brain, while they went in for mass matter. They took,10-14 slivers, and we waited rather impatiently for 8 hours instead of four, and pathology finally got what they needed. Now we have to wait 7-10 days before we know if it's benign or malignant. So,it's either radiation, or radiation and chemo_One good thing is that,cancer moves up in your body, they (the 10 neurologists at Walter Reed Medical Center in D.C)say because it's already in the top ,it can't spread lower. something else I didn't know. Either way, no matter what he will always have the shunt and he may need another one on the other side.Time will tell. They had told us that the first 6 hours would be the most crucial after surgery because he could hemorrage in his brain ,where they went in.He didn't, and the first hour after they were done, as soon as he woke up, he said"my throat hurts"(from the breathing tube) and "when can I eat, I'm starving!"

God is so faithful. So so faithful. This is really just the beginning of all of this, but I believe God after all of this, and him just going through this like he has, and the doctors being so shocked at how well hes doing...I believe God is not finished with Rocky yet.I know hes not.

 

Thankyou all for your prayers....remember,our God is an awesome GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Living for Him, Lori
