Post Surgery

Dear friends,
Coltrane is out of surgery and in ICU. The surgeon spoke to us and informed us that he had to take out one of his kidneys, about 10% of his liver, some of his diaphragm, and his appendix (preemptive reasons), Coltrane lost quite a bit of blood (1000cc's), but was constantly being replenished with new blood. The surgeon removed ALL visible tumor. The only bits left would be microscopic. G-tube placement and bone marrow biopsy went well. The surgeon said Coltrane's vitals stayed constant and strong throughout the whole process! He is on a ventilator and is sleeping soundly.
We are overwhelmed with everything, but we are so happy for this report. We are confident in that we prayed for wisdom for the doctors and surgeons and they were led to take more than they thought. God knows best. We are thankful and we are so blessed to have all you praying for us.
Please pray for Coltrane's full recovery, our family, for Jack to be strong and not worry about his little brother and for us to trust the Lord with all of our soul, mind, body, and spirit.
Love,Justin,
Sonja,
Jack,
and Coltrane the Tenacious
