Sorry we didn't post yesterday but Laura and Matthew didn't come home from Abingdon and I didn't get home from there until about 11 last night.
They put Kirk under anesthesia and put the tube into his liver to drain the enzymes. He came through the procedure fine. His color was much better a couple of hours after the procedure. He is in the critical care unit for observation. They gave him blood last night and he was resting well. They are going to keep him in the critical care unit for a day or so to observe him. Laura said he rested pretty good last night.
Please continue to pray for Kirk and the family. We will let you know if anything changes. Keep the comments coming Kirk reallly enjoys hearing from everyone!

I have been diagnosed with cancer. The cancer is of unknown primary which means they do not know where it originated. I have several tumors on the bone. I have be working with the Cleveland Cancer Center and an oncologist in Abingdon. This site is for my friends and family to see how I am doing each day. Thanks for checking in. I really appreciate everyone's prayers and concern. Thank you.

Hi Kirk & Laura,
I just found out about your blog from my daughter Sarah. I worked with Laura at Donnkenny years ago. Just a note to tell you our family and church are praying for you and the boys. May this day find you feeling much better, with many better days ahead.
Christ's love, Fielden Sanders

You don't know me but I'm Amy Bear's Aunt & Danny Copenhaver's wife. Never mind that but I want you to know I am praying for you. The main thing I always hang onto is that God is good and He is in control no matter what happens. I find peace with God is best when I quit trying to figure it all out and just say "I'm trusting You no matter what".

Dear Kirk, I wanted you to know that my husband and I are thinking of you and your family. We will continue to pray for you. You coached my son, Janson Sams, this baseball season. He thinks so much of you and asks about you a lot. You have proven to be strong throughout everything you have had to endure. Continue to keep that inner-strength that God has given you. Take care, Tommy and Debbie Turner
Dear Kirk,
I just want you to know that if you put your faith in God, that he is always near and will be with you and your family always to see you thru the good and the bad. My family and I are praying for you to have strength and to keep your eyes on Jesus.
God Bless You!

Kirk, It's been a while since we've posted to your website. We think of you and your family often. We wanted to let you know that we continue to keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. We share a common angel. Claire Lambert. Clarie has made the connection for patients discharging from the hosital to our homecare services. She is certainly a God sent. It is comforting to know that you have someone like her to help. If there is anything that we can do for you, she has my email at work. I hope that Chase had a good birthday. We should only realize that each day is a gift, and as we have the opportunity to share it with family and friends live in the moment.
Football is starting and the boys are getting into the groove. It won't be long before school starts, can't hardly imagine. We miss you here in Rural Retreat. Many prayers are going out to you. You are on many prayer chains at churches and people are joining in from around our community and others. I believe in the power of prayer and I believe that God is with you and your family. Trust in him.
Derreck, Rebecca, Zack and Colby Sprouse
Kirk, many thoughts and prayers for you and your family. We have you on our prayer list at church. I know God has a plan for you and we don't always understand, but one day we will. Keep fighting and God be with you. Miss You! Teresa Graham (T.J.)
Hi Kirk- I pray for you daily--I am asking God to give you a miraculous recovery. Please trust in Jesus Christ Sincerely, Bill Spraker
