AS promised here are the pictures of radiation and the dreaded MASK....They let me in to see the process. When I saw Mike lying there, strapped down to the table and had to leave him alone in the room, I couldn't help but cry...............I felt very helpless.....Yesterday the effects of chemo hit ..Mike was feeling worse than "yukky" and lost his energy along with feeling very sick to his
stomach, but it's all good, his sense of humor and sarcasm is
intact! After much prayer and a little help for sleep, Mike slept most of the night and we were up and ready for today. He still feels junk, but is doing it again today with a good attitude and minimal complaining. The upside to this radiation is that he is getting a tan face and looks like he still lives on Maui! Thank you for loving us and praying
with us. WE wouldn't make it without your prayers, love, and support.Love and Aloha,
Susan and Mike

Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vine; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the LORD! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation. The Sovereign LORD is my strength! He will make me as surefooted as a deer and bring me safely over the mountains. Habakkuk 3:17-19
Mike, I thought you were a fine lookin man already but THE MASK, dahling, does wonders for you! Simply fabulous!

Hey Mike
You look like you're auditioning for "the blue man group" keep holding fast man. Is your radiation @ the same time every day? If so let me know so I can pray effectually cuz you know I am praying fervently. Aloha Bro! Remember lunch is on you next time)
Hang tough Mike and Susan. You are having to walk through the wilderness for 40 days and 40 nights like Jesus did, but He is with you. He's walked your walk before you and will be your companion. Our hearts are with you too.
Love, Joe and Karen

I see so many people surrounding you guys in the Lords love it is so encouraging that the body of Christ is coming together in unity over you and the Lauer Ohana. I'm filled with hope just reading all the comments that others have posted. Your experience has truly changed my life prospective on my own situations. Thank you for being open, honest and real with all of us that know and love you guys.
2 TIM. 1:7 God did not give us a spirit that makes us afraid but a spirit of power and love and self-control.
