Praising God!

Some of you may remember this post that I shared with you in June. Earlier this year, my dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer and he went through a series of 20 radiation treatments.

Today we got the initial results and I'm thrilled to share them with you! His original number (not sure what 'number'....PSA sounds familiar but then that could be how you measure the pressure in tires :o) was 13. All things going well he was told that after the radiation his number would drop by half to 6.5. He got the tests from his initial post-radiation blood work todan and was told today that his number is now 2.5!!! Wahoo!!!

Praising God for answered prayers and for dad's health! Love you Dad!

PS - Thanks for your help painting the garage today. Greatly appreciated.
