He has been battling cancer for several years that should have killed him almost 4 years ago. He has had several surgeries that have resulted in removing a lung. The cancer is not a common one. He has been doing alternative therapies which extended his life and he was actually doing pretty well. About two months ago they found that the cancer had returned and that there was a tumor was pressing on his heart. The risky surgery removed about 30% of the tumor. The amazing thing they found, from what I have been able to gather, is that the original cancer was retreating. He started a new therapy about two months ago. He has crashed a couple of times and they have been able to bring him around. But now he has ARDS in his only lung. So, he needs our prayers.

He is a very spiritually strong man and knows he is in good hands. Dr Z is completely at peace with whatever the Almighty decides to do in this situation. If he is allowed to stay, it will not stop him from continuing to fight with every bit of strength he can muster. If not, he was finished with his mission. It will then be up to the rest of us to pick up his torch and run with it. May that one torch turn into many and that the world be set on fire with the truth.
