Worthy Brother Knights:
After surgery on the 17th and 13 days in the hospital, I came home late yesterday. Thank you for all your prayers; I don’t think I could have gotten through it without your help.
The preparation was like for a colonoscopy (What could be worse?), and the recovery was even worse with extreme nausea, hiccups, diarrhea, etc. for days and nights. I can’t ever remember being so miserable and for so long. And again, I couldn’t have done it without the Heavenly Help your prayers enlisted on my behalf.
The pathology reports came back, and my cancer was only Stage 1 and didn’t spread. They got it all, thank God! I don’t need any chemo and/or radiation therapy. It’ll take about a month to recover, but I’m heading in the right direction.
Please understand your prayers are really that powerful, and I’m far from the only one who can say that.
Thank you for all you do,
Vivat Jesus!
Ron
