Thursday - P.M.

We went to the doctors office today for the biopsy results and he told us Mike has lung cancer that's moved into the bone. Duh! You told us that two weeks ago!! He referred us back to the hospital for a Bone Scan and a Brain MRI. He wants to see how far it's spread into the bone and make sure it's not going into the brain. (No specific reason for that except he says lung cancer has a tendency to go there). The appointment is tomorrow. After the results come back he'll refer us to a cancer specialist for treatment.

lee ray said he asked his boss to use the 4-wheeler and his boss said yes.
love you guys, betty, lee ray, & family
the bad thing about some doctors is they say the same thing over and over again.
and its things that you don't want to hear.
lee ray said if you guys need some help with things you need done around there, give him a list of what he needs to bring from here, and when him and damon go back, they will do what needs to be done.o.k., betty

Good afternoon Dena,
Thank you for the update. I hope Mike was able to get through the MRI and bone scan today without too much sitting around. I just came home after 3 hours at the dentist. Jack called to see what had happened to me. I said I would be back in an 1 hour. Aside from my face being numb every thing is okay.
You and Mike are in our thoughts.
Love, Mom
