Could use some prayers and positive thoughts

This isn't exactly what I would like to blog about, but it's the hand we've been dealt. Friday we got the call that my step-father, John, has prostate cancer. So far that's all we know. He goes in tomorrow for a CT scan and a bone scan to see if it has spread to anywhere else in his body. He doesn't get the results of those tests until the 7th. Which I find sick that he has to wait that long to find out how bad it is, but I guess that's how it works. I was over there today and he seems pretty upbeat about it all. He was saying he wasn't going to let it get to him. I guess I'll update when I know more, but in the meantime I'll take any prayers or positive thoughts anyone has to offer.
