Hello friends,

Jim and I have a new friend who is having the MIE tomorrow at Oregon Health
and Science University in Portland, Oregon. We fortunately were able to enlighten
him about the MIE a week prior to his scheduled Ivor-Lewis in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

He is a stage 2 and the prognosis is good. Thank you for your prayers. I will keep
you updated.

Jim also has his scan on Friday for his six month check-up. We are hoping and praying
for a NED. Again, I will keep you updated.

Linda

    Good luck at UPMC
    My husband had MIE in Feb. 2011 with Dr. Luketich. He is 76 and doing well. I hope you have good results also. Please let me know if I can answer any quetions that you might have. We traveled from Florida for the surgery. It was worth it! I'll keep you in my prayers.
