Thread Name: BS: From Andrés to all friends
Subject: RE: BS: From Andrés to all friends
My wife has been stabilized and she maintains a weak equilibrium that could be broken in any moment by a new attack of the disease. If this stable condition continues, the radiotherapy will soon produce its effects and the tumors (now 2) will be reduced enough to allow the doctors to decide an operation or continue the radiation. She is slowly recovering control of her right members and tomorrow will try to stand up on her legs. We pray for this cruel and incredibly fast disease to give us a break.

On Sunday when the chapel was desert, I softly sang "Pietá Signore" because I didn't find other words. On Tuesday my son Javier prayed for her mother in the same chapel. Yesterday Javier received the happiest news we could ever expect. Our first grandchild is coming. Is this a little gift from Him ? Did He heard our prayer ? We rushed to tell Graciela the good news, and although she is very tired and sleepy, she cried and smiled, and promised us to make her effort in this fight, to see that little angel who comes perhaps to save her or to lengthen her life. I have never felt so grateful.

And also grateful to all of you, my singing and playing friends in the world, who concentrate in this remote site so many good wishes and prayers. Thank you my friends, I wish I could some day contribute with my prayer to another small miracle, wherever it may be needed.

Because I expect a small miracle. May He bless you all.

Un abrazo,
Andrés
