Many of you have asked about Emily, so here is the latest.  She has finished chemotherapy, and will have a PET/CT scan on Monday October 5.  Her appointment for the doctor to tell us about the scan will be the following Friday.  We expect for her to be cancer free, but a few hundred prayers would sure help.  I believe she will feel them, and she will grow less anxious.  The chemicals will be in her system for at least another six months, and she will be getting scans every three months, but the good news is that this part of her life is almost concluded.

Emily has grow through all of this, and is a much stronger woman than she was when this started.  She is tough, and she can take a punch to the gut and get back up.  I am very proud of her.  A special thanks goes to our prayer ministry.  They have really lifted her as well as our whole family.  If you have time on Tuesdays and want to make a difference join that wonderful group.  They pray and write cards at 9:00.

Grace, peace, and love,

Gifford

Good to hear it's almost over! We definitely will be thinking of Emily and you and Cathy on Friday, October 9. Six months to clear her system. I'm not surprised. That's an awful lot of nastiness to cure the original nastiness.

BTW your comments on health care are some of the most coherent I have seen. Ever thought of a letter to the editor or a guest opinion column? Your take on health care would be beneficial to others in my never humble opinion! I'm going to share it with Milbra.

I miss you and think of you more often than you know.

Love,
Sis
