Working more, enjoying it more

I'm working 4 one half days per week at a reduced load and really enjoying it and the people I get to see..I have so much more time and I can really listen and do a real good job. I always felt I tried super hard to do above and beyond but now with extra time I can be so much more complete. The neurology consult today was normal and all my recent blood tests were normal. We need to just keep on, keeping on. The prayers are working so please continue as it so blesses myself and my family.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

It was truly a blessed thanksgiving as we had 30+ psople at our home for a giant feast that we are still enjoying. It was so good to share God's blessings as I was not expected to still be alive. As Mark Twain once said " the rumors of my demise have been greatly exagerated" I feel really good and am on a lot of great nutritional suppliments as I'm awaiting some blood tests to send to California to see if I quality for a new study since I got bumped out of the last with no explanation and I feel abandoned by them but I have to believe the Lord has a better plan and closed this door. I have found someone else with a brain tumor that I can now coach and that helps both of us. Please continue to pray for healing, my strength and attitude and also for the judge who will make my disability hearing. His name is Daniel Russel. Your prayers and concernbs are so special to me.

New good news

I had great visits with my Oncologist and neurologist. My EEG was as good as my brain will ever get. I'll get to start another round of short course chemo which is good as all of this prevents any trace of little nasty cells sneaking back in. Please keep up the prayers as some days I can actually feel their presence.. Dr Jim

I'm feeling good and with good news of the MRI it makes waitaing so much easier. I'm looding for other avenues and had blood tests for HLA typing for a new study and will send these to UCLA to see if I qualify. So far I'm disappointed with communication from California as I feel like a number abd have been pushed to the back on everything. But God can us this for His glory and something even better in mind so I have to rest on this. P:ray that these new blood tests will be the match they need and for me to be not discouraged and to be a minister to others. I couldn/t do it without the prayers of God/s people. We love you

This is an update for Dr. Jim Hogin. Please continue to pray for his health and full healing. Because responding to so many people can become overwhelming, we again we ask that you not post to this site but rather just use it as a read only tool. Thank you for your prayers and concern. There is no question that the prayers of God's people have sustained me and the main reason I'm doikng so well. MY last MRI one week ago was great with no evidence of recurrent or residujal disease. Praise God. I/m still needing lots of prayers and need some doors to open at UCLA so I can get on the clinical study they initually said I could particate in. I need God to open this door as I've tried all I can and they don't communcate very well with me or my doctors. I've learned a lot about waiting on the Lord and how to use it for spiritual growth instead of heartburn. Thanks everybody Linda and I love and appreciate you. While waiting on God remember He has a perfect time for all things and in His perfect timing there is safety. This waiting is for His glory. He knows when we are ready for the things He has planned and prepared for our lives. This also controls our tendency toward self-sufficiency and pride. It also reveals more of His nature to show His mercy, comfort and power.This reveals more of His nature to show His power, Mercy, comfort and love. This is just a start of the many things the Lord has taught me during these times and I will update this as least weekly to reveal more of God's instruction to me. God bless all of you. Dr Jim Hogin My e-mail is JWHOGIN@aol.com I need lots of prayers for my disablity hearing as it is now being tgurned over to a judge and I pray he will judge righteously so this can go to a jury. Thanks again Dr Jim
