A Prayer Request~ For Our Ryan

Today a CT scan revealed that our darling son Ryan has a rapidly growing tumor or cyst on his upper left jaw which has caused extensive bone loss and has just about closed off his left nostril. We originally took him into our dentist when we noticed that his jaw was shifting over and his facial features on the left side was changing and very swollen. The oral surgeon has scheduled him for a biopsy for November 14  at which time we will be scheduling the surgery. We would appreciate your prayers for our wonderful son. Ryan is in great spirits and leaning heavily on the Lord. Whether God chooses to heal him or whether he allows this trial to continue.. he is completely trusting in His goodness and sovereignty. Please pray:
1) that the tumor is benign
2) that once the tumor/cyst is removed that Ryan's jaw bone regenerates and that he does not loose any of his teeth before that happens
3) that the biopsy and surgery can be done at the same time so that he does not have to undergo two different procedures.. we would need to have it done in a large enough facility where there is a pathology lab on site.

Thank you dear friends and family!

 
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.Phillipians 4:6-7 KJV
