Hello everyone,
Grace and Peace. I wanted to update you on the report from the medical team after Mark's surgery. The results of the pathology report are that Mark's tumor was malignant. They have decided to proceed with agressive chemotherapy and radiation therapy in order to prevent the tumor from re-forming.
Mark will be going back to the University of Pennsylvania hospital on Monday, June 19th to meet with the oncologist there. Treatments should begin in three or four weeks, after the incision from his surgery has healed.
As you probably realize, this was not the news that the Garises anticipated, especially after the successful surgery and Mark's remarkable recovery. When I met with Mark today, he said that since the doctors are moving ahead with aggressive treatment, it's time for us to enter aggressively into prayer. I want to thank you for all of your prayers and loving expression of concern and support.
Now, I'd like to invite you to continue in a season of bold, persevering, intercessory prayer for Mark, Nan and the whole family.
God's Peace,
Pastor Tom Delk

Mark, Nan, Jeff and family and Kris, I was certainly saddened to here of Mark's oncology report. I know the treatments will not pleasant. However, I am praying and asking God for a miracle! Our God is so awesome and certainly capable of doing more than we could even dream about. I am so sorry you are having to go through this (family included). Kris I am so glad the Lord arranged so you could be home. You know we love you and are sending hugs via the e-mail, I'm not sure how long it takes for them to travel this way, so you may be surprised when the arrive. Of course our prayers will be with you!
Blessings,
Brenda Cox and Jenny:)
