The doctors have agreed to do another needle biopsy on the mass in Jeff's upper right lung. If the biopsy is successful, then they will be able to give him the exact medicine to treat the mass; instead of guessing which is what they are currently doing. The walls around the mass will still need to fall in order for the medicine to get to it, but WHEN they do it will be the right medicine waiting to "walk right in" and destroy the mass.
Please pray tomorrow that the biopsy is successful, and thank you so much for your response to our call to pray and fast last Monday. I know God's response to our humbling ourselves and calling upon Him will be to bring healing.

Praying for Jeff Robinette
Just wanted to put together a few thoughts for us as we join together to pray for Jeff's healing. I may not get the medical language right, but God knows the details. The simple version (that I can understand) is that Jeff has two fungal masses in his lungs that have resulted from the treatment that he received following his bone marrow transplant. One of the masses is open/unwalled and the medincine (antibiotics) is able to get to it. The second mass is "walled" off in his lung and the medicine cannot reach it. Surgery is not an option at this time because of how the masses are effecting Jeff's lung function.
Since that was explained to me, my prayer has been Joshua 6:5 in which the Commander of the Armies of the LORD told Joshua, "When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in.”
We are fasting and praying that the same God who brought down the walls of Jericho will bring down the wall of this mass, or maybe not even stop there and dissolve the mass altogether. We believe there are still miracles in our time, and we desire to see one for our friend!
