The call

Dr. Farnsworth, an internist Mom has been seeing for the last several months, ordered a brain MRI due to some of the symptoms she has been experiencing. She had the MRI last Wednesday (10/15), and at 5:30 tonite his office called me to schedule an appointment for this coming Wednesday (10/22) at noon. I immediately asked what was going on and the doctor got on the line and told me the report says she has a meningioma, (my quick research says it is in the outside lining of the brain). He said these type tumors are usually benign. He is referring her to a neurosurgeon. Rex and Mom and I prayed after our initial talk. Then we called the family. And the call for prayer is going out.

Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel. Philippians 4:7
