Surgery.

It was Feb. 29 of this year when we rushed Odie to the ER due to blurred vision.

It was March when he was diagnosed with Cancer of the germ cell, a very rare case. He had his first surgery at the end of the month for biopsy.

He had his monthly sessions of chemo since then. He had a total of 6 cycles of chemo therapy until his tumor reduced its size and safer to be removed.

He was admitted at the hospital yesterday and had his surgery today, and it's Onnie's birthday. It was a successful 8-hour operation. They had to cut almost half of his left lung where the tumor grew. A capsule-size tumor was left, located along the artery, since it was too risky to scrape it off.

It was one of the longest operation of the doctor.

Let us all pray for his speedy recovery. Thank you!
