Mom/Sister/Aunt Barbara

Just wanted to let you all know how she is doing.

Barbara has had some mild discomfort in her abdominal about about 2 1/2 months now. About 3 weeks ago, she went to the doctor and they suggested to her that she should have an ultrasound done. Her results showed several cysts on her ovaries. Barbara had a blood test done soon after and her results indicated cancer. She went into surgery for a hysterectomy yesterday morning and the surgery went well. Barbara did in fact have ovarian cancer and the surgeon believes that he was able to remove most, if not all, of the cancer. There is still a possibility of chemotherapy. As of last night, she had regained her color in her face and has kept a smile on her face.

We would appreciate your prayers in her behalf.
