Great News!

Kara's test results show no new tumors, and further shrinking of the remaining spots in her liver. She should be a good candidate for surgery now, and we are all thrilled and thankful about the fantastic news. We will let you know more specifics about the results when we know more, and will keep you updated on Kara's prayer needs for the surgical phase of her treatment.

Praises
- Thank you God for healing Kara, for giving us signs that the treatment is working, for giving us hope.
- Thank you God for Kara's completion of brain surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy with no major complications.
- Thank you God for the love and comfort that Kara's family and friends provide her.

Prayer Requests
- Please pray for increased strength for Kara before her surgery, and that her side-effects from chemotherapy diminish.
- Please pray for comfort and peace for Kara as she faces two major surgeries in the coming months.
- Please pray that that cancer is eradicated from her body, permanently.

Hang in there, Kara! You are on the uphill of the downhill of this fight. God will not overwhelm you, He will only give you what you have the strength and resources to fight. I think about how tired you must be, and your fight gives me strength. We pray that you have patience to endure and that your cancer will be gone, gone, gone! Love, gamma and gampa.
