On Friday, December 2, Paul Guay was diagnosed with a malignant tumor on a couple of vertebrae in his lower back. He had surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible without endangering the spinal cord or fluid, and to install steel rods to provide strength and stability where the bones are damaged. The surgery was successful and Paul is feeling remarkably well.
He will be hospitalized for about a week, then to physical therapy. When he is able (3 weeks?) he will begin radiation treatments to attack the remainder of the tumor. Paul has had cancer (salivary glands) twice but has been cancer free for a few years. For obvious reasons, Paul will no longer be able to travel to Russia with us in a few weeks. He will be missed! Please pray for his full recovery!
