My step son skyped us at lunch time with the devastating news that his mother has been diagnosed with cancer of the oesophagus. She was operated on yesterday but the tumor was too big to remove. I feel as if I have been hit with a truck. My DH is so very upset for his son. As always when I have bad news I have to do something so I have turned to my embroidery machine for some comfort. I will place in projects later. Hugs Sarah.

So sorry to read this Sarah. It's after midnight here and I was just about to go to bed when I thought I'd check on Cute. I do hope you can get some comfort from your sewing machine. Many prayers for your stepson, his Mum and your husband. I'll look in after church tomorrow afternoon to see if there is anymore news and to see what you have made. Love and blessings Chris

Oh Chris it is really hard. Seeing Philip on skype this morning in tears was just too much. He is incredibly close to his mother and the pain that he is going through.....
I will write to you soon. Hugs Sarah.

Sometimes they can shrink the tumors and then do the surgery. Will be praying for a treatment for her. Prayers for her and the family.

Thank you Anita. The doctors in Munich are saying that Chemo may reduce the tumor and then they will operate again.

Sarah, I'm so sorry to hear this news! Of course your whole family are in my prayers for the best possible outcome. These certainly do seem to be trying times for everyone, but especially so hard for a son threatened with such a hard diagnosis for the mom he is so close to. I hope turning to your embroidery can get your mind off the problem for a bit. Big hugs, Marji

What devastating news I pray that the treatment will shrink the tumor to enable the Doctors to operate again in the very near future. I pray she will be without pain and be filled with courage and hope.
