Brother’s Biopsy Done - Now We Wait for Results

My brother called early this morning. The kidney biopsy is done. We wait a week for the results. His doctor says it does look very much like a cancer lesion but if it is, it is very small and slow growing. If it is cancer, he has a choice of radiation by needle or losing one kidney. At 74, he’s more inclined to just lose that kidney.

That, and his prostate cancer, are slow growing and caught early. That is a blessing. They have him on the estrogen for the prostate cancer.

So, so far, so good. Thank you all for your prayers along the way.

Sweet Lord Jesus, thank you for your compassion in helping this procedure to go far more easily than expected for my brother. Please keep him in your heart for good results. We trust in you.
