Richard Peace sent this message: "Joanne Wood called this morning and said the biopsy shows Tom has Stage 3-4 cancer (non-aggressive) in his right lung which is too far advanced for surgery. Chemo and radiation are options but this type of cancer does to react well to chemo and radiation. They have yet to talk to an oncologist. He'll be on anti-coagulants and blood thinner for 9 months because of the blood clot in his left lung and will be more susceptible to blood clots, pneumonia, internal bleeding, etc. He likely has a blockage in his bronchial tube with an infection behind it but is on antibiotics. He is in Texoma Medical Center/Denison-Room 431. They don't know when he will be released."
Debra Usry sent this message about her grandson Lucas: "He was taken into surgery at 6:45pm and came out of surgery at 10pm. He had more damage than was thought...more shattered bone....more fractures." She said that he should get to come home this morning.
Karen Cato sent this message about her friend Sherry Risinger. "Sherry had breast cancer 14 years ago and it has returned. It is a spot that is in the same place as her original cancer and about the size of half of a little finger nail, but it is Stage 2 and is the aggressive type. It's been a shock to all of us. She will have a double mastectomy on the 14th. We are so glad they could take care of it quick, but are very upset for her as well...two edged sword."
