Important Update from Deb's Mom and Deb: November 14th, 2007, 10AM EST

Deb's MRI results from yesterday not good; she has a recurrent tumor in her left frontal lobe. She will be placed on a new chemo drug starting this Thursday. The tumor measures approx 1.0 cm X 0.5 cm. Keep her in your prayers she needs us now more then ever....
Deb's mom


I will write a blog update today most likely... lots of emotions going on right now but I will give you as many details as I can. I am completly shocked but will continue to be a fighter.

Deb- I can't imagine what you are going through right now. But please, please keep fighting this. This MRI is just a call to battle. Remember that you won the previous battles- YOU WON. It sucks to have to go back to battle again but you will overcome this one as well. I know it in my heart and believe it with every fiber of my being that you will overcome this. You are STRONG. Your family and friends will be there to support you and give you their strength. You have a doctor who is going to pull out every trick in the book treatment-wise to kick this tumors ass to kingdom come. I love you, I'm praying for you, and you let me know what I can do to support you- anything you need.
Love, Jess

You have fought and will continue to fight this - there are more studies into GBM now than ever and I know you will have treatment options for you to beat this as you did previously! My thoughts, love and prayers are with you and I know you will beat this! Please let me know anything you need! Much love,

Cancer is so limited that:

It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
It cannot conquer the spirit

Kick the f'ing crap out of this thing, Debbie!

Hey Deb!
I'm so sorry to hear this. I started a novena for you yesterday praying to St. Jude, the patron saint of the "desperate" causes. It has done me well in the past and I'm certain he will pull through again. Of course I will continue to pray for you outside of that novena as well. I'm sure you will keep up your positive attitude and your fighting spirit and make it through. Another type of chemo may just do the trick. I'm here for you, just a phone call away.
Love ya!

Hi Deb,

Boston Beacon's beaming in your direction.... Here is the Universe at work. Today I was at a rummage sale at a Jewish temple in Newton with my new boyfriend. He knows about my macrobiotic habits, and while rummaging he just so happened to find a copy of the "Hip Chick's Guide to Macrobiotics" book by Jessica Porter that I sent to you last winter. It turns out that I had not yet bought another copy for myself, so I was just BEAMING, because I love the author's humor. It just so happens that the copy of the book that fell into my hands today is labeled as an "uncorrected proof for limited distribution....Not for Sale." This fact somehow made it extra special....to see a work in progress. Of course, I immediately thought of you.....came home....and checked your blog. Though the most recent post is not what we all want to hear at this moment, it is part of your sacred miraculous journey, and I suggest that you embrace yourself and consider this current situation as "your work in progress." I trust you have the strength to stay strong and heal, despite this past week's developments.

I have been clearing my quartz crystals over the past couple of days. They are ready for re-charging of your Reiki grid, so stay open to long distance beacons.

Love,
Bea
