It is currently snowing outside and I sit here near the stove with the white
Mexican cat by Shifra at schoot.Het today was another day of
care and concern. Shifra has been 3 weeks fever fluctuations, something
We by no means assured .. We go but the worst scenario and
that means we have against it again. How, what, when, will
Jan. clear if they get another bone marrow biopsy.
After treatment in Mexico, Shifra and I went to Houston and New York
been for a second opinion and had fruitful discussions. In
Houston is one engaged in a so-called trial, cell therapy.
Cor and I see there a point, but we will be attending the regular
physician in Leiden and its orthomolecular doctor (Valstar) discuss the most
wise will be gone now. From her leukemia cells may be a vaccine
make, but again this is experimental. When we left from Houston
she said, now when I get back again the leukemia is still hope for me
They can do something for me. Maybe it's why they
Now there is so calm under, she says that it is now in its real
flu is because it feels different than when she had relapses.
Yet that does not slow us below, but try the positives so
possible to keep up. Stress paralyzes, makes you so very tired!
Yesterday, our children in shul the third candle to put their
chanoekia. It reminded me of that great miracle what God has done,
then, but now I hope for a miracle that something is found for
Shifra so she can stay alive. That it may be in your light, your
life. We hope that for everyone a good time may be the last
day of December.
We will try to enjoy at least twice.
Good day, and we will send a warm greeting,
Cor, Marina, Uriel, Baruch, Shifra and Avithal Tribe
