Today we met with the specialists and finally got the bone marrow results back. Thank God the cancer has not spread to the bone marrow which is fantastic news (especially as the Dr's had led us to believe this was likely to be the case all along). We really believe this is an answer to prayer.
A HUGE thank you for your prayers, we feel they have "turned the tide" and we have all been so deeply encouraged by them.
It is looking likely now that the cancer is stage 2 and Mari still needs to begin chemo a.s.a.p, she leaves NZ on sunday afternoon to begin treatment in England.
There is more good news and answer to prayers... We now have all the medical samples ready to bring back to the UK with us!Also, Immigration have waived the red tape and given Mari permanent residency which will enable her to return freely to NZ.
Thank you God and thank you friends for standing with us at this vulnerable time - we can't thank you enough. There is still a battle ahead so please keep standing with us in prayer until Mari gets the all clear!
Love Dave, Rhi, Phil and Mari x

I love you, and think about you ALL THE TIME...if you ever get a mo, then drop me an email, but no pressure...seriously. i will always be checking in on you to see how you are getting on.
Hopefully I will see you soon, I will be back in the UK in July
