Well one week ago today, my mom called me with good news...dad was getting in for his MRI to find out what was causing his horrible back pain. About three hours later we found the answer and our joy turned to shock, and then to fear.
God has given us many answers this week...
We were fearful that the tumor on the spine couldn't be removed. It could be!
We prayed it wasn't cancer. It was cancer, BUT plasmacytoma's are highly treatable.
We thought there was a mass in his lung as well. There wasn't!
We feared he would lose the use of his legs. He hasn't!
We know God answers prayers! He may not always answer like we would want, but we feel blessed that He has watched over us and heard our prayers!
We couldn't have made it this week without you all. Thank you so much for taking care of us.
God is always good! ALWAYS!

Miss Janae', It was so nice talking to you last night. You have done such a great job keeping evryone informed & taking care of your mom, too. Don't you have a husband & 2 kids or something!HA I know that Damon has been so helpful & supportive as well. We are so very proud of you! As far as a medal for your mom, I think of Proverbs 31 "A Wife of noble character" that is definitely Debbie. Remind her to take care of herself-I know you are. What a blessing it is each day to hear such great news of Robert's progress! Keep it up Robert! We praise God every day & We love you all very much!! Uncle George & Aunt Lori
I'm glad that there's such positive news ;o) We'll keep praying for you!
Miss Janae' Your Uncle George & I were able to get Nana on this blog site. She's on here as we speak! She really feels better being able to read this! We love you! Uncle George & Aunt Lori
we are keeping you in our prayers and are so thankful for all the wonderful progress that you have made so far! We will pray that the numbness goes away and you get full feeling back. Hope to see you back in bible class soon!
Gary & Janell Huntsman
Hey Bob, just wanted to check in on you. Hope they begin treatment soon for you. The waiting is always the worse part. Thinking of you lots. Know your co-workers are praying for you.

All of Debbie's ladies at Mabel Bassett send their love and prayers your way! We praise Jesus, we exalt and thank Him that He can heal all things. We know that in His Name you can find healing. His power is unlimited and we trust in Him completely. We ask God that your pain be taken away, that you may return to His full service. Though we've never met we love you as you are our brother in Christ.
In Him,
Benita Hamblin
and all Deb's students at Mabel's
p.s. cool scar Bob!
Hay Bob, I've been out of pocket for the last couple days - training - UGH! Anyway, I couldn't wait to get back on-line to see the latest news on how you are doing. Sounds like everything is going fine, with the exception of the hiccops. Sorry for that, but hopefully the "stomach tube" will fix that problem. Please know that you are in my thoughts all the time. It's so great that technology allows us to keep up with how things are going with you. Thank God for Karyn. I don't know her but from her postings, she is delightful. I'm sure you are very proud of her and I can see why. You are so blessed to have both Karyn and Debbie, as they are to have you. Hope things continue to go well. Sue
You have no idea how many times I've tried to get on this blog and tell how much everyone up here in North Kansas is praying for your situation. (I finally worked out the technical difficulties) Sarah and Josh have kept me aprized of your progress, and you know how pleased I am the way things are turning out for you.
