Thank you all for your prayers.

Peter just phoned me (Barbara's husband). He said they met with the oncologist yesterday - and he has the MRI scans right in front of him.

The brain tumour which appeared over a year ago and resisted treatment has metastesized badly...there is no point in any treatment.

Barbara will not have visitors until she is in hospice - right now, Peter says, "she alternates between sleeping and sobbing". She is very distressed after the great and upward fight she has been engaged in these last 6 1/2 years.

Prayers please for Peter and Barbara.
