Today was a big test day. Amelia sent these pictures from the day. The day started with an endoscopy and the plan had been to have a colonoscopy if needed. The endoscopy found that the cancer has originated in her stomach. It is encroaching on her esophagus, only about a centimeter is open, so she is getting just a drizzle of everything that goes in to her mouth which is what is causing her inability to eat. Thursday they will put a stint in her esophagus to open it up. We are hoping this will allow her to eat and maybe even enjoy food again. So tomorrow we will find out what stage of Stomach Cancer she is in, and when treatment will begin. She is tired tonight, worn out emotionally and physically. Tomorrow will bring more information and more direction. We know she is strong and that God is mindful of her regardless of how long this journey seems.
