Title: New Prayers requested for Tom Kidwell
Post by: Doc Nock on May 20, 2013, 07:43:00 AM
All I know is that Tom needs more prayers at this point... I'd written to share I met some of his old cronies at the B'more shoot where he had many friends...and i got the following:

Hello, Dave!
 
Sorry for the short reply, but really weak and tired.
Going back in hosp. this week for more surgery.
Will try to e-mail as soon as I can.
Prayers appreciated.
 
Tom


   :pray:  Lord, in your Mercy...hear our prayers...

Toehead, I think he shared about that in an email...that was before his operation.

Last I'd heard from him prior to the setback, was he was doing well recuperating...now this---whatever this was...

I hope to hear some good news soon, but don't want to call and disturb him given he's been so tired...and by now, back in the hospital for whatever. I don't want to trouble Glenda with calls either...knowing what trips back and forth to a hospital can do to wear one down.

Prayers abound till we all know more.  Tom's one of the good ones! Lord in your Mercy....

I got this Tuesday (yesterday) so Tom is at least around and kicking:

Hello Dave!
 
Making some progress here.  I get the results tomorrow on the biopsies they sent to the lab last week.

The procedure last week went well, and the fever & night sweats appear to be gone now.

Leaving here in the morning for Oklahoma City where I’m hoping to get good news from my doctors.

Hope to e-mail you soon with good news.

Tom

Please allow me to offer my sincere appreciation for your prayers, e-mails, and calls.  I got the results today from the surgery I had last week, and everything they took out last week has tested negative, or cancer free.  I go back on July 11 for another test, and if that comes back negative, I'll be declared cancer free.  In addition to thanking you for your prayers and concerns, I would like to urge you to have frequent check-ups.  If my cancer had not been found when it was, it would have been in all my major organs within 60 days, and I would have felt no pain until then.  I'd kind of like to have you good folks around for a while, so please consider getting regular check-ups.  Thanks again!

Tom

Just stopped by for one last look at Gang before heading out for the rest of the week.

Incredible news, Tom...and yes, diligence is always a first line of prevention.

It makes my heart soar like a hawk to hear that all is well and prayers the july 11 visit bears the same good news!

Thank you, Jesus!!!
