Fortunately, Garrett's lung and liver biopsies came back negative. However, the Oncologist said that he has been an Oncologist for a long time and he really does feel that it is cancer. The Oncologist wants him to now have a surgical lung biopsy. He is scheduled for a Pulmonary Function Test this Thursday, 9/20. He must have the Pulmonary Function Test prior to the surgical biopsy. On Tuesday, 9/25, Garrett has a consultation with the surgeon. On Thursday, 9/27, he will have the surgery at Northside Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia.
As you keep Garrett in your prayers, please also pray to St. Peregrine, the Patron Saint of Cancer Patients. He is the Patron of cancer victims because a cancerous growth on his leg was miraculously cured. Please also keep Mom in your prayers. She is very tired and her blood pressure has been very high lately. She is so frustrated that they still have no firm answers from any of the doctors.
Thank you all so much for your love and support.

Terri, What a great idea! Thank you so much for doing this. Uncle Garrett has been in all our prayers since the moment we found out! I never knew that there was a patron saint of cancer patients and will certainly direct our prayers to her !
