Mari starts her chemotherpy in Southmead Hospital tomorrow ( Friday) at 9.30 am. The Doctors are having a case conference today to compare their findings with the NZ Doctors. They wanted to look again at the fluid in Mari's lung and the nodes on her stomach. They want to determine the stage of the Hodgkins themselves even though the initial treatment will be the same.
Please pray that the chemo will be effective quickly. Please pray too that there will be no long term effects of the chemo and that the short term ones will be minimal. To be able to cope well with nausea ( or not have it at all !) would be good too.
Thank you for your continued care and prayers, Mari hopes you dont get compassion fatigue!!
We will update the blog over the weekend to let you know how Mari is doing.
Thanks again for all your love, support and comments . Phil is still waiting for his visa, the red tape is taking longer than expected, it would be soo good if he was able to come over as soon as possible.
Love from the Days

Thank you Day family for keeping the 'Kiwi cousins' up to date with what is happening, it so helps the prayer and our hearts!
Love and blessings for tomorrow Mari, may God wrap you in a HUGE blanket of His love and carry you through with loads of grace.

Dear Marie,
You are all continually in our thoughts and our prayers. Your dear parents have been such a blessing and hope for so many in their difficult and dark times and therefore there is no such thing as "compassion-fatigue" when it comes to you. The least we can do is to stand with you all in this battle and see you come through triumphantly!
God is with you during this very difficult time and so are our prayers and love. Praying for Gods peace to guard your heart and mind throughout the chemo and praying against all side-effects.
Thanks for keeping us posted! Lots'n-lotsa-love, Debbie and Johan, the Swindians!
Compassion fatigue? What's that?
Continued prayers for you all.
With our love,
Mary, Terry, Abbie and Matt Wood

All the best

Hi Mari, Hope your treatment is not too unpleasant. Please tell your dad we think a wig might improve his looks! If it works perhaps Andrew could also have one. Any way we shall be praying for you.

Hello Beautiful Mari. You are very much in my thoughts today; imagining you being in the hospital, and in a room where they administer treatment. I hope that the staff have been warm and caring, and that you don't have to be in the hospital longer than necessary. I am praying that you don't get sickness, and that you are able to give yourself the rest and whatever else you need over the coming days and weeks. Sending you much love, Lisa X
