Rally for Ralph

Hello everyone, I would like to take this time to tell you my Journey with Cancer.  On September 12th 2018 I had contacted my Dr. due to a sudden onset  of becoming slight Jaundiced.   After some blood work and returning to work i felt like I was slowly getting worse, by September  17th I knew something was not right. I contacted my Dr. and was told to come to the ER for admission and thats when things really started with alot of labs and scans and scopes then they had to put an NG Tube in and wow what a relief after about 4 liters before being hooked up to suction...My poor Mother sitting watching me literally deflate from head down.. they eventually ended up around 16 liters after that was all said and done. Talk about a walking septic tank.  I could finally rest a little better.  On Friday September 21,2018 the results were back and I was told I had a Rare Bile Duct Cancer and here we go again deciding what is the best treatment for me.  When theyball left me for a moment.....I HAD MY MOMENT!!  But in a minutes time I was ready to fight my battle. God is so good! From that point on I felt the warmth of his love embrace me and we were off to more scans which then showed i had a bowel obstruction by my tumor as well so then I went on to a small Surgery and Biliary drain placement.  More relief  and was more able to start eating again and getting strength back and muscle back after about a 50lb weight loss so we could start my Chemotherapies.  After being released from the hospital things were looking good as far as my beginning recovery. I then had 4 treatments and a scan which showed a little bit of decrease in tumor and then the stronger 2 rounds and scan the lymph nodes have went down a little in size... all your Love and Prayers were definitely working and I truly felt all of it!! So here we are aproaching  Monday March 4th and the Surgeons Dr. AUGUSTIN and Dr.  WALSH  are confident and in agreement with the Tumor Board to take me in and do a WHIPPLE procedure with tumor Removal.  I am ready to get through this long procedure 8 to 10 hours tomorrow March 4th.  I have been out of work since September and get a very minimal disability while off and things are starting to affect my income to cover Medical Bills and living expenses and asking for your help and support. I Love you all and am BLESSED to have you all in my life. Please continue to lift me up in your Prayers!
