We are here at my brother, Lee's, place in Denton, Texas waiting to hear back from MD Anderson on the specific date for my 1st appointment with them. Hopefully tomorrow, but by Wednesday. Tumor is obvious to me when I sit or lay down...and the pain is there alright...but the percoset helps when absolutely necessary...though I do not like taking it.
Long drive...but driving helped take my mond off of the pain, and Gail read me one of the Jane Austin, "Pride and Prejudice" offshoot novels, one about the entitre story from Darvy's perspective. it helped a lot too and was an interesting stroy. My wife, Gail, is an angel for the which I am most grateful in my life next to my witness of Jesus Christ.
Thanks to everyone for your faith and prayers, and for your responses on this thread. It is humbling and I will try and respond to every single one as I can. Words cannot adequately express my gratitude, or that of my family. Faith and sincere prayer has great, and real power. Power to the revealing of God's ill in our life...whatever that will may be.
I have faith in God in Heaven and His son Jesus Christ. I know that they know me personally and have planned a life that is best for me, my loved ones, and those I come in contatc with...indeed, for all people. It is ours to come to know them, to accept the gift of the atonement of our Savior which opens the door back to God, and to thus come to know their will for us in this life.
And then, coming to know that will, to accept it, to make it our own, and then be a strong witness for them to all around us.
I am committed to being a good witness of God's will in my life, whatever it may be, to those aorund me, my wife, my children, my grandchildren, my brothers, family, relatives, friends and neighbors.
Her'es one of my favorite Hymns, "How Firm a Foundation:"
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,These sentiments and principles will lead our nation back to its roots, its fundamental principled roots, and restore our Constitution and Republic. Why America has prospered and is Free.
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word!
What more can He say than to you He hath said—
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
In every condition, In Sickness, in Health
In povertys veil, or abounding in wealth;
At home or abroad, on the Land or the Sea
As thy days may demand, So thy succor shall be
Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed,
For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I’ll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My gracious, omnipotent hand.
When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
For I will be with thee thy trouble to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply;
The flame shall not harm thee; I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.
E’en down to old age, All my people shall prove
My soverign, Eternal, Unchangeable Love;
And when hoary hairs, shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still in my bosom be bourne.
The soul that on Jesus doth lean for repose,
I will not, I can not, desert to his foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I’ll never, no never, no never forsake!
To whatever extent I can help in that, I am also committed.
I will keep everyone up to date, either on my site HERE
Or, on facebook, where I enjoy the interaction, HERE
(Both of which I will update tonight).
God's choicest blessings and speed to all, and may your prayers, faith, and good wishes on my behalf be returned to each of you in your life 10 fold.
You are in my prayers, Jeff.

All the prayers in the world going out to you tonight Jeff. My stomach dropped when I read your posts in this thread...all the prayers out to you.
Hi Jeff. I found “How Firm a Foundation” sung at the 178th semiannual convention at YouTube and thought I’d post a link so can listen to it when you are online.
