About a month ago i asked for prayers for my son who was diagnosed with melanoma.
As explained in that post we were sent to university of michigan for more tests. After U of M checked his biopsy they said yesterday that he does not have cancer!!!
What he does have is sever atypia. That means the cells in that mole biopsy were very strange. Yesterday they took more skin and tissue from the area to make sure all those abnormal cells are removed because they could turn into cancer if left behind. Because of this sever atypia he is now considered high risk for developing melanoma during his life. Yearly check ups are required along with extra attention to sun exposure. However…i cant say it enough times…MY SON DOES NOT HAVE CANCER!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!!! Because this is so rare for a 16 yr old kid his information and biopsies are now part of a special case study. We thought that if we could offer his records for more learning that maybe the information learned could help others
while its scary to know your child is now high risk for cancer i am over the moon about learning he is healthy! God certainly bestowed upon us a great blessing! I give all the glory to the Father all mighty in this! Thank you all for the prayer support i couldnt wait to have the chance to share this amazing news with you. God bless you all
