We're Back!!

Wow - it's been 3.5 years since I last posted. It's been quite a roller coaster ride on this healing journey. Joanne's longest remission was about 22 months. We had a wonderful three week trip to Vietnam in November, 09. Upon our return, we discovered the cancer was back and Joanne went into chemo again. The last remission was about 7 months long. She just finished another long round of chemo last week. Her cancer marker, her CA 125, is now normal again.

It's now time to explore other options for healing, as the chemo has taken a heavy toll on Joanne.

I've restarted this blog because we are about to embark on another adventure - a two week trip to Brazil to visit John of God. John of God is a powerful spiritual healing medium who has a clinic, Casa de Dom Inacio in the small village of Abadiania, about 60 miles from Brasilia.

We've known about John of God for years, but lately have been encountering many friends who have been there. All report it to be a "life-transforming" experience. We decided to sign up for that!

Both of us will participate in the "treatments". I'm hoping for healing from some chronic painful orthopedic conditions and some heartache. Joanne is obviously focusing on her cancer.

We know that healing occurs on many levels, and it is difficult to not live in hope of physical healing also. We believe we have nothing to lose.

We fly to Brazil on the 17th of April. We will be spending Holy Week and my birthday in Abadiania. We both are eagerly anticipating this adventure. Stay tuned for further updates and please hold us in your prayers.
