Lisa left a voicemail about 11 this morning, and asked me to update the blog. She said Mike is doing okay--okay being a relative term. He came through the surgery fine, and they were in a transition-type room when she called, probably in a regular hospital room by now. Mike is having more and different kinds of pain than last time, and a good bit of post-operative nausea.
The good news: Dr. Mehron, the lung surgeon, told Lisa "Mission Accomplished." So I am privileged to tell all of Mike's wonderful friends, family, and prayer warriors:
Mike Madaris is once again
cancer-free!!
cancer-free!!
Praise God!! God is so good; He is good even if His plans do not equate to our flawed human ones. But I'm praising Him right now and thanking Him for ridding Mike of cancer yesterday morning through his vessels at M.D. Anderson.
Please continue to pray for Mike's recovery, Lisa's strength (if you know her, you know that is a praise, not a plea), and their safe travels back to Hattiesburg early next week.
And for this blog to return to its previously established standards soon... :-)

Dear Mike,
Your family and friends in FWB and Shalimar have been connected to you through this wonderful blog. Sandra and I have been worried, wondering, and biting our collective fngernails since your surgery until we say your brother's comments. Also, Leslie called her Aunt Jant severl times to ask about Mr. Mike! We told her that we knew you would be ready for Anne's graduation! A special thanks for Jim! Isn't it funny how you become so close to your sibling as your grow older, speaking from experience and what a plus that can be! Take care our dear friend!
Love,
Janet
What wonderful news! Praise God, Mr. Mike! Praying now for your recovery.
Should I call you Mr.? I see where Sabrina called you by that and Sabrina is only a couple years younger than myself. Now that I think of it, I SHOULD refer to you as Mr. Mike b/c you are SO much older than me!!! HA! Seriously, I am most definitely praising our Lord for His healing!! He is good and so deserving of everything we can muster and more. Praying for quick recovery as well as SAFE travels out of Houston. Press on!
Love,
Steph
