Yesterday we received some preliminary test results that show Erich (Genrich) has cancer in his stomach. Today he begins chemotherapy treatments.

Your positive thoughts and prayer will help cure Erich. He's done it
once before and he will do it again.

The Volkswagen community is like family to us.

Our thoughts to the Kirchers as well. I lost my father this past Christmas eve to abdominal cancers and I know what an emotional and physical struggle it can be.

Thoughts and prayers to you, please keep us posted....

our prayers are with you.
may i suggest you take a close look into "fucoidan"
i have several friends who have had cancer and were able to trump it naturally. chemo is the worst, and as you well know very hard on you.
there are alot of things you can do for this. let me know if you need any info or help. i enjoy helping others win the cancer battle. ive lost 2 family members to it, and thus devoted alot of time to study on what kills it, and how to prevent it. later dave
