Great update on Kate... [View all]
From the story in my recent newsletter of Kate Silberberg in Western Pa....(a friend wrote this)
Brad and Kate. I haven't updated you because Brad wanted to write to all of you. However, time is very precious right now and all of it is being used to place Kate where her healing already exists. I will remind you that about two months ago Kate was told by her doctor here in Pittsburgh that the 5FU chemo-therapy had had no success in reducing her Stage 4 pancreatic cancer and tumors. There were little options left, according to the doctor. Well Divine Guidance provided a very successful option. Brad and Kate went to Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Tulsa Oklahoma. I must tell you that they love this treatment center and its staff and doctors. The first visit was for about 11 days. During those days Kate had exhaustive diagnostic tests. The initial tests showed no remaining cancer. Amazing! But leaving no stone unturned a four test even more accurate that the PET scan and CAT scans did reveal that there were cysts or growths remaining on each of Kate's ovaries. The tumor on the pancreas was gone. Kate and Brad came home for two weeks. Kate felt wonderful. All of her body systems were working normally and she even had energy to teach some at the Mesa. Something truly amazing had happened. Last Sunday they returned to CTC in Tulsa. On Wednesday Kate had both ovaries removed. Her surgeon also removed a few pea sized tumors on the wall of her abdomen. The final determination of the lab results won't be in until next week.
Kate is doing very well. She and Brad are having fun in Tulsa while she recovers from her surgery. I have skype now and so I can attest to the fact that she looks really good and is so grateful that she finds herself, today, in an amazing healed space compared to where she was two months ago. Rather that being told there is no hope, one of her doctors told her recently to renew any magazine subscriptions that might be due. She is going to be here, I think, for a very long time. Brad is doing very well, too. He continues to do alternative healing at the Center on Kate and has done some with others there, as well.
Please keep both of them in your prayers. Those prayers and everything else sure are working miracles.
Brad will, at some time in the future, catch you all up on the details.
