We are at Mayo Clinic where I will be inpatient following surgery to remove a neuroendocrine cancerous tumor on my pancreas on Monday, December 20 through 25 at Mayo Clinic Hospital, Methodist Campus, 201 W.

Journal entry by Kevin Wahr

We are heading home to Gaylord, MI from Rochester, MN after our first visit post surgery.  Many surveillance tests and blood work showed no cancer recurrence.  I think they took ten vials.  The doctor ordered another blood test today that is an experimental one to screen for genetic markers to show future disposition for any neuroendocrine cancer.  It takes several weeks to process.  Mayo Clinic is amazing!

Mari is scheduled to return to work in May, and is well on her way to the end of a long, painful recovery.  Thank you for your continued prayers; we are so grateful for this good news.

Happy Easter from us - He is RISEN!
