Jeff had a cough over Christmas that was thought to be your normal winter crud. He took some steroids & felt much better. January 22nd, he had some urinary symptoms for which he went to the ER , thinking he would be diagnosed with a kidney stone. After all urology workup came back negative, a CT scan was done. This revealed a tumor on his kidney & a few spots on his lung (presumed cancerous). It is believed that the lung spots are responsible for his cough & are related to the kidney tumor. He has consulted with an oncologist & a kidney specialist. Jeff is scheduled to have his kidney removed on Monday January 30, 2017 at St. John's Washington. After this, the spots on his lung will be addressed. Your prayers & support are appreciated during this time for Jeff & his family!
