Next Step

Just a short informational update:

Emmett and I have decided to go with a minor surgery to remove the stent and place a feeding tube. We feel this best prepares his body to deal with the chemo and only postpones the chemo a few more days if all goes well. We're going ahead with that decision today, so pray that all goes well. Emmett has had a very rough morning. We're all nervous, but his anxiety level is maxed out. Today needs to go well. Please pray.

oh- and Emmett has wanted to write, but the IV in his hand aggravates him too much to type. He hopes to post something himself soon.

  2. Praying for peace for you guys today. For God to guide the surgeon's hands and do exactly what needs to be done for your body to respond positively. On your way to recovery friend. Hang in there, fearless leader of Team Emmett - you have an army of fighters supporting you!

    And I totally relate to the IV issue - I had one in my hand once - it's the worst!

  6. Hey Emmett
    I've done anesthesia for many of these procedures... You should be nice and comfortable...a minor surgery/low risk. Sounds like the right thing to get your nutrition up. Well, you're a young strong guy so give it all ya got... I'll be thinking about/ praying for ya!

  7. Emmett: We are praying, along with the prayer chain from our church, for successful surgery that will enable the starting gate to be "unglued" so you can start the race to win this battle with Arnie.
