A third

{Editor Mindy} Can you imagine if your debt was reduced by a third? What if your pants shrunk by 30%? Wouldn't it be wonderful there was a delicious chocolate cake and instead of a piece of it, you were offered a third???

Yesterday Dad went to the doctor where he was informed that after 6 weeks of the treatment his tumors have shrunk by 30%. SHRUNK! By a third!!! We are in such awe. We have been fasting and praying for the tumors to slow down or maybe stop, but shrink?! I didn't even know to pray for that!

Back when my dad got diagnosed, my mom asked everyone to pray for a miracle. She didn't just ask, either. She believed it could happen and acted that way. She has been so strong and optimistic and faithful. And here it is! Prayers work. Miracles happen! The doctor said he was "cautiously optimistic." My dad's results are the best within his peer group of the clinical trials. We know there's still a lot that can happen. We know it's still a long road. But we also know that we're part of this miracle happening. Just like all of you - friends and family - are a part of it. THANK YOU for all your prayers and fasting and putting his name in the temple, and everything else you are doing. It's working! Keep it up!
