Update August 10 2013

Dear family and friends,

Nora had her post op meeting with her surgeon, Dr. Herrmann a few days ago. Biopsy report showed
no cancer. Everything looked great. With the type of cancer (triple negative – TNBC) Nora was diagnosed with, the news that she responded so well to the five months of chemotherapy is, to simplify Dr. Herrmann’s reaction, “fantastic.”

nora4But about two weeks prior to the end of Nora’s chemo and before surgery, she started getting severe headaches, the kind that produces tremors. She thought they would just go away. They haven’t.

She will get an MRI scan Monday and see where we go.

Nora’s sister, Diane, kindly came down from Asheville for a visit and to help around the house. (Note to Diane: the chicken salad is gone!). Sister Kathryn is next.

Please keep those good vibrations and prayers coming to The Ridge.

Paul

    Nora… I didn’t know. Thelma let me know this last week and you’ve been in my thoughts and prayers since then. I’m so glad that there’s no sign of it now. God give you strength to get through the rest of this.

    So glad to hear the mri was good and I am sure the headaches will subside soon…not soon enough for you I know but your body has been through a lot and it just takes time and to know how many people love you and are praying for you is truly healing in itself. We so missed you at Greta’s 90th birthday but we all said a prayer for you and know you will be at her 100th ! Lots of good love and good thoughts sent to you!!! Thanks to your husband for keeping us all informed. You look beautiful as always… just as I remembered you…Okay so we both have a few more wrinkles but you are still beautiful to me!!
