To: guitarman@backbeat.org.uk Subject: Prayers needed urgently Hi John Been a long time... hope you are well. I am sick - desperately so. I have been very poorly for most of this year, with several emergency hospital admissions. They finally got around to doing a CT scan on 1st September, and I got a call from my GP next day. Saw the surgeon today... I have a massive pancreatic tumour, which the surgeon believes is inoperable. I am not ready to leave my helpless autistic son all alone in the world, so I am soliciting prayers. The cancer team is meeting tomorrow to discuss what, if anything, can be done. I have lost all the email addresses of our UD/FAD friends as my old PC died (only have yours because you kindly included me in your "new email addy" notification list)... wondered if you could please pass the word round? God bless Maggi xoxox |

The latest update I received today:
I am seeing the surgeon tomorrow for the biopsy preamble and, having been told I have only about 6 months left. My main email address, btw, is maggi@mbee.co.uk Please feel free to contact her, as I doubt that she could cope with coming here. John |

I don't know your friend but you are on the right path as prayer did wonders for me. In 2000 I was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma in both kidneys. 11 years later I am still here. My prayers go out to your friend.

I had an e-mail back from
Maggilove a warm and composed one. She remembers me, as I do her. She's far North of my route when I go to England, but I hope we shall stay in touch with e-mails - one has already crossed the North Sea again. |
