Wednesday Night… and Good News!
Hi All,
It’s Wednesday night. Moshe is finishing this week’s heavy chemo at about midnight. He has done well although today he felt very nauseus. He is feeling better now and ate muffins dipped in milk.
The doctors gave us very good news yesterday. The results of the CT scan revealed that the small pieces of the malignant polyp that were left in the back of his nasal passage have with Hashem’s guidence melted away under the chemotherapy.
This was the first marker to evaluate the effectiveness of the chemo on Moshe’s condition. Thank God the chemo is working as was hoped and with the radiotherapy, the chemo and other treatments that follow, the doctors are hoping with Hashem’s help to cure the cancer and erase any chance of it returning.
We are ecstatic with this positive development and can only thank all of you for praying so hard and diligently for a refuah shleima for our Moshe.
This news strengthens our resolve and knowledge that it is through our prayers that Hashem is responding and giving a refuah shleima to Moshe.
Please continue to daven for our boy, Moshe Yair ben Beyla Tanya, for a refuah shleima as we can see that Hashem is listening to all of our prayers.
Thank you again.
Love
The Altschulers
