Great picture. Until I had my prostate carved out, I didn't know about prayer quilts. I found myself in a quite moment alone in our living room, putting it over my head and shoulders and was strangely moved. A note came with it that said that as it was made, the women prayed for the one who would receive it. 6.5 years and doing fine!

G'day,
Thought I'd update everybody on Helen's status as of today.
She completed a course of Radiation therapy on her spine (T-5 & T-6) which stopped the pain she was having there.
She has completed two rounds (out of four) of Chemotherapy; she has two more to go which will finish on October 12th.
We went to see the Radiation therapy Oncologist this past Monday because she was having pain in the lower left side of her back and
left leg. She went for a scan on Tuesday and he has scheduled her for an additional 10 sessions of Radiation therapy starting next
Wednesday.
We saw the Chemotherapy Oncologist on Tuesday and she advised that follow up scans will be performed a week or so after she finishes
the Chemotherapy to see what the effect has been.
So far she has not had any loss of hair and while she feels weak she is doing OK.
She is loosing weight as she has lost her appetite and I am doing my level best to entice her with "goodies" that she likes such as
roasted cashews and macadamia nuts, Cornetto ice cream cones, jelly candies, and LOTS of chocolate!
Regards,
Rob
PS - I'm doing fine, my knee continues to get better and the physio on my left shoulder seems to be helping. General comment -
getting old SUCKS!

Rob and Helen,
Hoping for you a very good success in this fight.
I understand the ups and downs, my wife went through breast cancer chemo 8 years ago, free of it so far.
Don't give up, my best to both of you.
