News from the hospital bed!

Hi folks

Me again - just heard from David re the results of the endoscopy. All good news! The tumour has responded well to the radio and chemotherapy and seems to have shrunk. There was no sign of any spread and no thickening of the oesophagus!!! Fantastic!!!

The pain is being caused by the radiotherapy burn and also he has picked up a bad infection in his throat and oesophagus. They are going to give him antibiotics and probably feed him through a tube for a couple of days to let everything heal.

Phew!! Thanks so much again for your thoughts and prayers.

Will get David to blog once he is home.

Love to all

A relieved Florence x

Will continue to bother the big guy upstairs about continued healing!

Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.

Thanks Flo for keeping us all in the loop. Glad the doctors were able to get to the "bottom" of it.....sorry,

So grateful that it is positive news,
Every blessing to you all...still praying for "no trace",
