I (Jonathan) will take over for this post.
We started the day at 4:15 a.m. with April’s biopsy surgery as the only thing on our schedule. The surgery went as planned , and we should hear the biopsy results in three to five business days.
Our next step is at least three specialist appointments on Monday. While we likely won’t have today’s path results to discuss, we will talk about the scans from yesterday, and likely treatment option scenarios.
Until that time, we plan to give April some time to recover, and catch up on some rest. We are tired, but hopeful in a more definite (and effective) treatment plan.
This stage of our journey has me often thinking of Psalms 121. We are trusting, and looking to the mountains.
Jon and I just listened to Dr. Charles Stanley’s Sunday message on Courage and doing the hard things in life. He used the passage in Joshua 1: 1-9, and we realized that you, April and Jonathan, as well as your whole family, are great examples of how we need to trust in the Lord during times of affliction. Your blog is so touching! Thanks for sharing the details and your faith through it all. Praying for you daily… McKeels
We continue to pray for your family and are looking for each update.
Your family is in our thoughts and prayers as you travel down this difficult road. We continue to pray for wisdom for your health care team and rest, strength and peace in Jesus as you have treatments. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you. We appreciate your blog to keep us informed of your progress and how to pray for you specifically. There are many praying for you.

Thank you for sharing this personal time of your lives with us. I have no idea how I would react if I had to go through what you two (and your entire family) are going through. I love to read of your faith in God and your love for each other. We pray for you guys every night.
I pray for God’s healing, and his peace during this time.
Love you guys,
John and Denise
Praying today for a peaceful rest that will restore and refresh both of you. Also I’m praying for good path results and wisdom for those deciding on your treatment plan.
Rest my little April and you also my Jonathan. We will continue to pray.
Suggest you take a breather from the intensity and stress. Catch up on some sleep, enjoy each other and some of Houston. Anything I can do, please do not hesitate to call.
