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.

    Colon cancer survivor here. Those oncologists CAN work miracles. A good outlook/attitude makes a world of difference. Ask all of your questions and let the science do its work.

    I've laid in a hospital bed alone... wondering... waiting for the prognosis. So ponder on this as you experience that reality again.

    I've been a follower since near the time you moved to West Texas.

    I've always enjoyed your reporting about your experiments and their outcomes.

    I've watched as the desert reality overcame the dreams and then how you adapted your dreams and actions to the reality of that region.

    I admire that... a lot!

    I wish you all the good that I can send your way and hope to read of your adventures for many years into the future.

    Best wishes and Prayers.
