Back at home again...

....after only 5 hours in hospital, all went smoothly today and Mari is now tucked up in bed, wiped out, but feeling hungry due to all the steroids!
We will let you know how she gets on over the coming days.
We found out today that the Dr's will do tests on Mari in a couple of months time to see how her body, and more specifically the cancer, is responding to the treatment.
We will of course let you know when that happens.
Thanks, as ever, for your wonderful support - Love from us, x

May you leave the old year and its trials behind and step confidently towards your future.
HEAPS of love and blessings,

Hi Mari,
For some reason I am awake early (miracle?) and thinking of you. Trust you are enjoying the warmth and sunshine and all is going smoothly.
I believe you have some little surprises around at present, there will be several, that God is giving you as bright glimpses ahead.
Much love and a HUGE hug,
Judith XX

Hey Mari, Have been feeling for you through this time and praying for every good and healing and up lifting thing for you and for an abundant sense of purpose and meaning and grace to come from this experience in God's perfect timing. Hope to catch up for that coffee when you are back.
All my love to you, Kate Ball

Hi Mari
We did the Great Bristol Bike Ride today with a friend of ours who has just completed her course of chemo. Your time will come. Still thinking of you each day as I walk home from work. Take care, God bless and lots of love

Hi Mari

Missed you - hope you missed me! But I got a glimpse this morning - looking good! Ha! but I'll catch up with you soon. Our group prays each week for you too, just to let you know. Lots of love.

Hope the week is going well Mari - we all watched 'Once' on Sunday afternoon and wished you were here!
Wilson arrives home in the morning and hope he's brought your good weather with him :), rain, hail and howling winds are no fun! Be so glad you are in Bristol. :)
Lots of love, hugs, and prayers,
