      • Been a while since I posted an update. Mrs. CP had reconstructive surgery this past Thursday, and all went well. She's recovering remarkably well, and so far there hasn't even been any discussion of chemo or radiation or other treatment. She appears to be cancer free!

        • Yay! Praise God.
          βλέπομεν γὰρ ἄρτι δι᾿ ἐσόπτρου ἐν αἰνίγματι, τότε δὲ πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον·
          ἄρτι γινώσκω ἐκ μέρους, τότε δὲ ἐπιγνώσομαι καθὼς καὶ ἐπεγνώσθην.

          אָכֵ֕ן אַתָּ֖ה אֵ֣ל מִסְתַּתֵּ֑ר אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃

            • 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (borrowed with gratitude from 37818's sig)

              • Just make sure she has regular check-ups for the rest of her life (as I'm sure you both will). Cancer is a fiend that, once you get it and beat it, you can't ever be sure it won't come back.

                  Yup -- and we have learned so much we didn't know. Like hers is "hormone fed", and manipulating her hormones can pretty much block a recurrence. But, yes, eternal vigilance!

                    • Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

                            I agree. Watching Jim Kelly's (former Buffalo Bills QB) cancer come back after it was supposedly in remission reinforces the point.

                            That being said, praise God that she is doing well.

                            • So, my youngest daughter (born in 1980) is a real hoot, and, unfortunately, has a sense of humor very much like mine. (Funny how that happens)

                              So, youngest daughter gets my wife a T-shirt that says, in large letters on the chest, "Yes, they're fake - my real ones tried to kill me".

                              What's WRONG with that kid!
