Surgery Update

This is Melanie's brother, Jeff.  As many of you know, today was Melanie's big O.R. day.  Unfortunately, the doctors found cancer in one of her lymph nodes.  Because of this finding, the doctors felt they could not adequately remove Melanie's cancer and the rest of the operation was not performed.  This possibility was discussed with Melanie and her family prior to surgery, but still came as a huge surprise.  Please continue to pray for our family as we deal with this unexpected step in Melanie's journey.

    So sorry to hear this! I've been praying for you, Melanie, and will continue to pray for all of you as you process this news as a family. May God give you a "peace that passes all understanding" because we surely can't understand why this is happening.

    Love & prayers,
    Trish (Loewen) Krobel

    I have been following your blog for the last couple of months and have been praying fervently for you. When my daughter told me about yesterday' s outcome I was momentarily struck by grief but as the tears flowed down my cheeks, the words of the song Show your power, O Lord my God, came to me and gave me peace. Every time your name comes to mind so do the words of the song. I trust this will give you strength. This is not the time to give up. Our prayers will continue.
