Good morning Rick,

Here are the updates on Aunt Faye.

Aunt Faye is going to have a hysterectomy on Wednesday 10/31/2007. Her uterus has dropped and they also found a polyp which is some concern.

Lisa's first operation did not get all the cancer. So on 11/14/2007 Lisa is going to have a mastectomy. Lisa has decided to go with an implant so the Plastic Surgeon needs to be available also.

Please keep both of them in your prayers.

Love Ya,
Aunt Mary Rose

UPDATE: 9/12/2007

On the 5th Uncle Ron called Aunt Joan to say all went well with Aunt Faye. Uncle Ron said that Aunt Faye was doing well and was coming home that day which was Friday the 7th.

Well this morning as I was getting ready for work Aunt Faye called and said she does not have to do radiation or chemo but will be taking the pills. Also this Monday Aunt Faye walked a mile and a half at the health club. And on Tuesday 2 miles this was done in increments of a few laps at a time. Isn’t that great!!

Aunt Faye said they will be here for Brian’s wedding in October.

Aunt Faye said “tell the prayer group thank you”. The prayers where greatly appreciated.

Love Ya,
Aunt Mary Rose

Hi Rick,
Got a call from Aunt Faye today with an update.
Surgery for Aunt Faye will be on September the 5Th. They will be doing a bilateral mastectomy. They feel that they have caught it in the beginning stages. Her right breast is a stage 1 and the left a stage 0. They will be injecting dye in the lymph nodes. Aunt Faye will not have to do chemo or radiation but will be on pills for 2 years.
Needless to say Aunt Faye is in need of a lot of prayers. So lets engage the fantastic Prayer Group on this one.


Love Ya,
Aunt Mary Rose
