CT Results

 Good evening! 

They did a CT scan on mom today. The Dr says there is cancer on the outside of the stomach. But thankfully it has not spread yet! They expect that a part of the stomach will need to be removed. 

Tomorrow they'll meet with the surgeon where he will discuss more details and which direction to go. 

We're praising n praying at the same time! 

We plan to switch to a what's app group to post future updates. Blogspot seems to not be very user friendly... Please hit the following link to join "Marie's Prayer Group" on what's app.

Update:

Seems WhatsApp has a limit as to how much people can join one group.
So if you were NOT able to join the group yet you can hit the link below to join.

Hopeful!

 To our surprise we got a little more information today then we expected. The Dr said that according to the test that Mom & Dad brought from Belize it doesn't look spread and maybe caught in time. So we're hopeful and cautiously excited! 

They plan to do an endoscopy on Tuesday. 

Mom started with treatments today so things are going snappy out there.  Definately Dads style....ha

Arrived & Dr Appointment

 Goodmorning,  Mom & Dad safely arrived in Tijuana late last night.

  They have an appointment with the Dr at 9:00 am Belizean time. We don't expect answers today, but mainly blood test. 

Prayer request: for peace in this time of waiting!

Cancelled Flight

Good Evening

To our dismay Mom & Dad couldn't fly out of Chetumal today. Seems the bank canceled the payment. Now they are rescheduled to fly out tomorrow afternoon. 

 Aron & Mary are flying to Tijuana to be with Mom & Dad and we were so thankful that they would meet and fly together from Mexico City. So trying to see the blessings in this change of plans.

Welcome!

 Good Morning!

 We as family decided to create a page to update you all on Mom's (Marie Dueck) health journey.

 Mom did have a little more stomach issues lately, but we blamed it on food that maybe wasn't right for her stomach, which always has been an issue since her cancer operation 8 years ago. 

 On Sept 29, 2020 Mom did a blood test which we did every 3 months for the past 8 years and that's where things starting looking suspicious. So on October 2 we did a CT scan and the Dr recommended further test. We had done an endoscopy in March 2020 and were told that the stomach was ok, but they didn't send us the results because it was during the time the pandemic started. Now when we finally got those test results, the Dr in Tijuana told us it's NOT ok.

 So plans are now for Mom Dad to fly out of Chetumal tomorrow and go to Tijuana. 

 We as family really appreciate all of your kind messages and prayers and want to keep you updated in this journey.
