well, we spent black friday in the ER at MD Anderson...not our first choice of places to be-but, Marcus was really feeling short of breath and called Dr. Kim-and of course he wanted him to come in-and i am SO thankful that Marcus agreed-he ended up having pleural effusion and they had to remove 1900ml (half gallon) of fluid from his pleural cavity!!!! i told him i didn't even see how he could breathe at all !!! anyways, good news is, since they saw he was already scheduled for CT today, they would do it all then...so about midnight friday, he got the full CT of chest/abdomen/pelvis! of course, the ER drs would not give us any insight-they want us to wait and get the word from Dr. Kim today....so today we will visit MD Anderson again and see what's going on-we are still faithfully believing that God will heal Marcus and we will not accept any bad news today! we are patiently waiting, trusting God and know in our hearts that Marcus will get through this-it is just a little mountain he has to ask God to move for him-but not impossible-nothing is impossible through Christ!!
if tumors are responding, Marcus will admit for another round of IL-2...if not, he will discuss with Dr. Kim a new plan of attack! he is NOT giving up and will NOT let melanoma win! so all you faithful prayer warriors, keep praying!!!! we love you all and thank you for your continued support of our little family. more posts to come.....

my prayers continue to be with you...through God, anything is possible
Stay strong...we're not giving up either. You are all in my CONSTANT thoughts and prayers.
Well...Our God does work in myserious ways. You where sent to me through a prayer chain and a very special person in my life - Evaughn Drake. I will be praying for Marcus and for you and your girls. For the complete healing and for the encourgement you will need to keep going and to keep your sweet husband upbeat and positive in order to WIN this battle. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." -Philippians 4:13 The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called enemies, caution lights called family. You will have flats called jobs. BUT...if you have a spare called DETERMINATION, an engine called PERSEVERANCE, insurance called FAITH, and a driver called JESUS, You will no doubt make it to a place called SUCCESS!!!! Let Go and Let God!
Love to you,
