Back to Square One?

Well, here goes.....One doctor thinks dad has Large Cell Lymphoma and two doctors think he has Burkitt's Lymphoma, so I guess it is the latter. Dad caught a taxi this morning to take him over to City Hospital to have surgery done. The taxi was late so he missed his scheduled surgery. So he waited for 6 hours until they could fit him in. Gotta love Saskatchewan. They put a shunt in so that his bile will drain normally. They had a tube in there draining it until this point. They took him by ambulance back to RUH (Royal University Hosp). The doctor said they aren't doing an MRI now because it's too costly and takes a while to get in to get one so they will do or did a CT scan. He says it is just as effective a scan and can see if the cancer has spread anywhere else (we still don't know for sure). They want to start aggressive chemo again either tomorrow or Saturday. Oh and dad has been losing hair. So that is that.

Pray dad doesn't get more infections during this round.
Pray that he'll get good sleep.
Pray that his body will be strong for this next round.
Pray especially for the chemo that goes into the brain once during this round. The doctor wasn't specific on the risks of it.
Pray for mom as she is stressed with having to drive everywhere. Pray that she will be strong through this next round of chemo.
