My sister and Natalia 's update

To friends who have known about my sister's illness and kindly prayed for her surgery :

My sister got the surgery already. The cancer is still there but a doctor was able to move the tumor out of her upper east lung. The surgery went well but her wound hurts a lot. She said she has never been this painful before. But she has sense of humor and she is optimistic all the time. When she tells story about her pain, she laughs at the same time. She tries to make me and my family relax. She and I are grateful for your prayers that is why I post the picture of me and her and our family, which we took before and after the surgery.

My sister has a breathing technique-not to breath in the air deeply. For example, when she yawns, she has to try not to breath in the air back into her lung, which hurts her badly.


before: my sister ,Myra -our dear close friend and I.
after: my sister, my husband and my son ,Sa

after: my son, me, my sister,my husband and my aunt

Natalia Chernova in Moscow also return home already on the 27th of March. However, she still have to have some rest and use glasses forever. She and her daughter ,Kristina believe that your prayers help her a lot because even the doctor says that Natalia getting better so fast is a real miracle. Natalia and Kristina are very happy and grateful.
