Hello Friends,
I am friends with Kathryn on Facebook. She has been really sick with crazy lab work, horrible GI pain, ascites and bilateral pleural effusions, and, apparently a bunch of confused doctors. She is reporting now that they have identified a THIRD primary cancer in her--duodenum (small intestine, just below the stomach) cancer. I don't know that a plan has been worked out yet. Her kids are getting in to town for the holidays, which she is so glad about, of course.
She could really use all of our strongest best wishes and prayers, and a whole truckload of swinging chickens.
