Hart Update - August 2008

Dear friends,

Thank you for your prayers. God kept topical storm Fay away from the
Suncoast beaches and Dad was able to have his surgery today as
scheduled. The doctors were able to remove the whole tumor, along
with removing 1/3 of the pancreas, 1/2 of the stomach, and some of the
small intestines. Praise that there was no seeding in the lymph
nodes. We won't have the final pathology report for several days
since the tumor was about 1 inch and takes awhile to process.
The immediate prayer requests are that no infection occurs, no leaking
develops and Dad can gain his strength quickly. Robin is with Mom
this week and will leave on Friday. I will fly down this Saturday and
return next Thursday, August 28. We are thankful that surgery went
well and Dad seems to be doing well at this time. Our family
appreciates all your prayers.

To God be the glory!
Holly
