Approximately two weeks ago our Dad, Richard, was diagnosed with cancer.  The cancer is located in his mouth and on Tuesday, November 9th he will have surgery.

Journal entry by Barbara Heitzig

Hello everyone, The last couple of days have gone well for Dad. He had a nurse appointment at the house to give him a general once over and everything looks great!

We went to Dad's tonight and brought homemade cream of mushroom soup and made cherry smoothies for dessert.  There were carrots, but they were nothing to write home about so in the fridge they went. 😀 

It's getting chilly here in MN and the sun is setting earlier in the day.  Dad is layering up when the sun goes down and finds himself getting colder faster.  His speech is great and the incisions continue to heal well.  Continued prayers and well wishes are welcome!
