Elijah's Text Message to me "No Cancer!!!"
To those of you who have asked about my son Elijah or prayed for him I want to thank you. This long hard fight might have come to a close. He sent me that short text message yesterday after he had got the results of the CAT Scan and blood work back after all of the Chemotherapy. "No Cancer!!!"
Thank you JESUS! To the new folks here Elijah is my now 21 year old only biological son who last year was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer. After 1 surgery to remove that cancer he was scanned months later and the cancer had spread to lymph nodes in his left abdomin.  The next surgery was this last winter when they opened him from his pelvic bone to his sternum and removed 10 lymph nodes and [4] were bad looking but they felt they got it all. Scanned 3 months later and they saw another mass in there that looked bad so we started 12 weekes of aggressive Chemotherapy. That beat Lyj up pretty bad but never his spirits and smile. So now a month or so past his Chemo he was scanned last week and get the results yesterday and the answer was of course..."No Cancer!!!". With all the bad stuff we deal with each day I wanted to tell you about something good many of you were a part of. From my whole heart I thank and love you all for the support. peace Hail Skins!
