Health Update
On the 24th of June I went into the Kinki University Hospital for a CT scan. The report was very positive as the scan discovered no new cancer outbreaks or spreading. The cancer in my rectum has stayed the same size though the section spreading into my bladder seems to be a bit less than before. My blood test was also good and I was able to start my regular chemotherapy treatment that day. My doctor has also decided to do chemotherapy once every 3 weeks instead of once every 2 weeks as the chemotherapy seems to be keeping my cancer in check just fine with that schedule. PTL
Overall I am in very good health. My doctor seems to be givng me all the right medication to cut down on side-effects so that I hardly have any. Right at this minute I have a portable chemotherapy container hanging around my neck and am receiving an IV injection but am feeling fine as I type this while enjoying a good cup of hot coffee.
I am preaching at my church every Sunday and also teaching several Bible Studies. I am also keeping up my mountain climbing schedule-hiking at Mt. Kongo and rock climbing at Mt. Makio.
Thank you so much for all of your prayers. I really believe I am alive today because of the prayers of my church people, my Chirstian friends and contacts, and of course my fellow missionaries around the world. Thank you so much!!!
And finally, please continue to pray for me and for Reiko as we try to walk by faith and not by sight and to walk in victory and not in defeat keeping our eyes on our Good Shepherd, Jesus.

Good news, Paul-sensei, even better than NO News Is Good News!
Keep up the good work, and most of all enjoy good music over a cup of good coffee.
See you on Friday.
