Good news about Steph :o)

Steph and Ali are n Germany at the moment, Steph had her second lot of treatment yesterday... and the results of her first treatment...... I won't keep anyone in suspense... Dr Vogl gave them the fantastic news that the tumour on her liver has shrunk by over 20%..... how fantastic is that... as you can imagine they are both over the moon... Ali will have her partner around for longer even after one treatment.... and Steph will have something so many take for granted..... time..... I keep having a little happy tear...

Also she has been told she has a tumour pressing on her spinal cord that was in the UK going to be treated by radiotherapy .... Dr Vogl had said he can give it a blast with the Chemoembolization to remove it...... yep more tears from yours truly... so i can only imagine how Steph feels.

Take a look here... http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=607675658&ref=name#/group.php?gid=49543032511&ref=ts
This is one of Debbie's groups on facebook to highlight the petition that can be signed online to get Government to allow Chemoembolization here in the UK for all patients with Mesothelioma which would open the doors for ALL patients with cancers that can be treated to do so....

This is the direct link to the petition... don't forget to make sure if you sign it to ensure that you check your email after ( and junk mail) for the confirmation email. Make your vote count. :o)

Fund raising is still continuing to make sure Steph can have the 3rd treatment...

Please pass on the link to all you know to sign the petition... There are people dying when there is no need, make your thoughts known to the Government.

PS I am still making cards!!

Thanks a million and I sincerely hope everyone reading this is happy and healthy xxx
