on to a new adventure
Ever since the first CT scan found a tumor on my pancreas, I pretty much resigned myself to the fact that my time was up even though I had more tests to go through. I tried hard not to get my hopes up because I know that pancreatic cancer is always death sentence. My recent surgery on Friday confirmed what I have already come to accept. The cancer is inoperable - stage 4. I have been "getting my affairs in order" and I already made arrangements for Ben to be relocated to his new home and owners in a week. I am opting out of meeting with an oncologist to discuss chemo and will be going straight into hospice care soon. The blow of an early departure is softened by the fact that I retired and have been living life completely on my own terms for the past 15 years and won't be leaving a family behind. While people die all the time, it's pretty hard to wrap my head around the fact that my turn is coming up. My only fear about it is that I am undeserving of God's grace...

seek
Psalms 9:10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

So here's the scoop - for now.
They found a small malignant tumor on the tail of my pancreas.
No evidence (so far) that it has metastasized.
I am scheduled for surgery back in Lubbock on December 1.
