Update on my Wife

Judy and I saw her Surgeon today.
The Doctor said that the unusual happened.
Normally, in breast cancer the tumor in the breast is larger than any in the lymph nodes, and if the lymph node tumor happens to be larger than the tumor in the breast, cancer has spread to other organs.
In Judy's case, the tumor in the lymph nodes was as big as a grapefruit, with six cancerous nodes bunched together.
That is the bad news.
The good news is that for some reason, the cancer did not spread past the one large tumor.

Looks like all of your Prayers made the difference.
She will be doing chemo. and radiation just to be safe, but the Doctor says that if a person must have cancer, Judy's is the type to have.

Thank all of you for your support and Prayers which to Judy and I has made this great news happen.

God Bless all of you.

Judy and Eric Marleau

Good news Eric, prayers coming your way for you and your wife. I know what it's like for someone to fight cancer. My younger brother by 3 and a half years fought cancer for 15 years and lost the battle last Sept about the time I was coming home from Elk hunting. His wife pasted away in 2000 so now I am the Executor to his will and looking after his three daughters. My 3 Niece's have been very tough through all of this.

Good news indeed.
The treatment is almost as bad as the disease, chemo kills cancer ever so slightly better than it kills everything else, radiation is pretty harsh as well.
Still much better than having no options.
Good luck on this saga you are embarking on, it will be long and at times unpleasant, stay positive, keep making plans for the future, laugh, it beats crying.
Best of luck to your family.
