Update from Gabe
Dear All, with gratitude, I have two prayer requests: 1) Intending going back to HK July 2nd to start 2nd part of treatment, but Life Clinic's quotation is more expensive than before. I did not accept it, and I am asking them to reconsider. Pray that I can get more reasonable prices. 2) All my doctors say a root canal I have may be a trigger to my lymphoma. Thus it is wise to take that tooth out before continue cancer treatment. But dentist says that due to compromised immune system I am at high risk of infection and recovery time may be long. I am aiming to have tooth pulled out next Friday (June 29), also in HK. But if I got very ill I would not be able to start treatment at Life Clinic. But on the other hand I should not postpone 2nd part of cancer treatment for long. Tonight our family will pray asking for wisdom, what should I do? The other option is to do the dentist months later, when my immunity is stronger, but if indeed the tooth is a cancer source, then I should do that first. Would appreciate if you join us in prayer for these two issues. I will decide what to do by tomorrow. Many thanks! The Lord reigns!
