Linda's MRI today revealed that her tumor is smaller! PRAISE THE LORD! I wanted to title this post IT'S SHRINKING! That may be a little optimistic, but if the definition of shrkinking is smaller, it would do. It is not much smaller, but ANY reduction is significant, especially since Linda had to miss a round of Temodar because of the pneumonia she experienced in late July.
Even with the reduction in the size of the tumor, Linda is not moving as well as she has in the past. I know you will pray about that. Her coughing is improving day by day. She has been treated for reflux and thrush (almost inevitable with so many antibiotics), and those drugs seem to be helping considerably. Her INR levels (blood clotting factor) are all over the map, so please pray that will regulate.
We will go to Duke on Wednesday, so hopefully we will know even more by Thursday. Thank you for traveling this road with us! Praise be to God!

Great news Brad! Still praying...
We are still praying. The people at FBC in Roanoke Rapids ask every service about Linda. I'll tell the Irma Price Class tomorrow to pray for her as she continues treatment and that movement will return better than before. We love you both.
GLORY TO GOD!! We still pray for you both daily!
A mutual friend sent me this blog address. Our prayers and love are with you all.

Praise God! Hallelujah! I am shouting with you both. Nothing is impossible with God. I just praise Him and am so thankful for the improvement of the cough and the shrinkage. I will continue to pray for movement and continued progress toward healing. My love to Linda and the family.\Eva
