A very tired but happy Dr. Porter just gave us the news – Jona is out of surgery! The surgery took over seven hours, the last hour and a half of which were spent sewing muscles back together and of course closing the incision.
I'll plan to send a detailed update tomorrow, Lord willing.
Do continue in prayer! Perhaps the biggest item is that the doctors are hoping the chemo destroyed at least 90% of the tumor for the best statistical survival rate.
Remember that God is good – all the time!
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him:
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honour him.
(Psalm 91:15)

About Me
About this blog
“Sonidos Serranos” was begun in March 2008 partly for our parents who were all overseas at the time. Since August 2009 and especially in early 2011, the blog became a practical way to communicate updates on our nephew Jona’s battle with cancer and God’s graciously giving him ultimate healing. I’ll still be posting about God’s amazing grace in his life ~ and our lives as well...
As for me:
I’m happily married to John Mark, my best friend. Our greatest joy is knowing Jesus Christ as personal Savior. After years of preparing and waiting, we are excited to be in Uruguay as full-time teachers, sharing the message of salvation in Christ alone in this part of the world.
Our E and DJ are also great sources of joy ~ and wonderful answers to prayer! They have a great heritage: Their grandparents (all of them!) are or have been missionaries. And they continue to be an important reason for this blog.
Until HE comes...
