Update

Hi followers,

I have seen my Urologist and I have my left kidney removed the first week of September. Not long to wait thank goodness. I have not been able to eat anything. I have lost 10 kilo's recently which is 22 pounds. Doug is buying me some iceblocks today so hopefully I can suck on one of those. I had a bone scan yesterday and thank goodness there were no nasties. Monday I have a liver ultrasound for the lesions found there so all I need is good news there.
I can't wait to do craft again. Once I get my energy back after the operation there will be no stopping me.
Al the symtoms that  I have been having like the loss of appitite, dizzy head, continual cough and fevers are all to do with the tumour so I will be a new person when this is over.
thank you so much for your support.

Oh Marion!
How can two people go through so much ill health?
I am praying you will recover fully once you have your kidney removed and be right back to perfect.

You guys need a HUGE HUG.
