The Stavdals

Great news about my friend! He just posted this: "GUD ER GOD! Det ufattelige har skjedd! Svulsten jeg har i magen er etter all sannsynlighet et såkalt terratom – en godartet svulst som må fjernes ved operasjon." In brief, he is praising God for the fact that the result of the first tissue-test shows that the cancer is non-malignant. Ordinary surgery should be sufficient to eradicate it for good.

I was devastated to receive a groupmail from one of my friends where he tells he was recently rediagnosed with cancer after 17 years of good health. He initially decided to create a blog to keep his friends and associates up to speed on the situation, but he soon found himself sharing his every-day life-experience with cancer including his first encounter with the disease seventeen years ago. His vivid and descriptive language coupled with both reflections and the inevitable search for answers and meaning make this Christian blogger one you must read. Join him on his journey by visiting "En vandring har tatt til". He writes in Norwegian. May I encourage my readers to keep him and his family in your prayers and send him a message of encouragement.
