Got this today from John Windjack aka Karl Gustav and Sharkush. You might recall that he is LLBF with Ken Savage. The news for both of these boys is pretty bleak and they could use our prayers continually.
Hi Folks!
At least I'm no worse today. My lungs are still full but at least I'm coughing up some fluid. My disposition isn't any better tho,& I still feel like killing something just to see it die. There is news about Ken. Ida came down ytrdy & apparently there's a patient in GP who needs attention in Edm.so Ken gets to go home & use his time on the dialysis machine while he's here. Rachel & I & Ida & Kelsey went out for lunch & then to a park for the kids to play. I'm pretty sure that Kelsey & Rachel will be lifelong friends after this. Kelsey is 6 months older & about 8" shorter,but they're very compatible.
So,Ken is home in GP & extremely glad to be there. Right now,about all we can pray for is that Ken is in a happier place than the hospital,& he is. I'm at the point that all I care about is Ken's mental state. With his cancer markers climbing so rapidly again,it's unrealistic to think that all is well & put on a happy face. Ken's hoping for another hunting season & that's about all he can see in his future,although he's not even assured of that. I know what's in his mind. If they locate the tumor & it's operable,it won't assure him that it's not going to recur as soon as they close him up. He's so beat up & dissected from all the chemo & surgery that his moral is very low. He has no stamina left & what time he has left is being eroded by this horrible debilitating sustained attack on his body. I'm kind of seeing it in a direct comparison to the Taliban,always another bomb,each one bigger than the last. He doesn't want to concede a loss,but he is running out of ammo & time.
Jesus,help our friend,with a miracle,or inner peace with his decision. He and we are in your hands,Amen.

I know you guys and gals will do your best.
Thank you and thank God for you.
