I was eating with Charity at Bob Evans after our visit at the
research center
Charity last night after we got home from the Columbus Urology Research Center in Columbus Ohio, she read this chapter.
I said to Charity that I certainly think different today than I did yesterday. While I really felt that my days were numbered, which is not a bad thing, today after our meeting in Columbus I sense maybe the Lord has given me new life.
We went to the Urology Research Center on Monday November 28, and had a session with the team.
Researchers want to find out if an investigational drug called GTx-758 can help men with advanced prostate cancer who need removal of male hormones (testosterone) to treat their cancer (hormonal therapy).
We had blood work done. Paper work to fill out and have our consent and know what this research was all about.
Then we went to have a physical by the Urologist Michael Gambla, and he was really great.
Then we had a EKG done.
We understand that we are going to start taking the drug around December 12, 2011, if all go well and all the blood work is finish.
This is going to be a 360 day test study and visit every week for the first several months and then month.
Charity and I have been seeking the Lord's direction, and wisdom on how to go in this matter.
As of now we believe this is the direction that is best for us.
1 I will praise you, Lord,
because you rescued me.
You did not let my enemies laugh at me.
2 Lord, my God, I prayed to you,
and you healed me.
3 You lifted me out of the grave;
you spared me from going down to the place of the dead.
4 Sing praises to the Lord, you who belong to him;
praise his holy name.
5 His anger lasts only a moment,
but his kindness lasts for a lifetime.
Crying may last for a night,
but joy comes in the morning.
6 When I felt safe, I said,
"I will never fear."
7 Lord, in your kindness you made my mountain safe.
But when you turned away, I was frightened.
8 I called to you, Lord,
and asked you to have mercy on me.
9 I said, "What good will it do if I die
or if I go down to the grave?
Dust cannot praise you;
it cannot speak about your truth.
10 Lord, hear me and have mercy on me.
Lord, help me."
11 You changed my sorrow into dancing.
You took away my clothes of sadness,
and clothed me in happiness.
12 I will sing to you and not be silent.
Lord, my God, I will praise you forever.
