Update......

I wish I had better news to share. The surgeon came out about an hour into surgery to tell us that he cannot proceed with the whipple. Turns out, the cancer grew a sheath around an artery...something tests, scans, and such cannot pick up. Our options at this point are to investigate treatments to force the cancer into remission.

I've never been hit by a car or truck or train, but I would imagine that it feels something like this very moment.

Please keep praying for Dad's spirits when he wakes up. This news will impact him more than the initial news of the cancer.

Much love to all....Jen
