First, CONGRADULATIONS on the birth of your son!  What a courageous 
story!  I can only admire your selfless courage in puting your unborn 
child's life before your own health.  Now that your son is fine, it is 
certainly time to turn attention to your own condition.  Are the tumors 
still there?  What do the doctors say?  Have you gotten any other medical 
opinions about your condition?  

Please take good care of yourself and follow-up on any possible signs of 
cancer...you owe it to your beautiful son.  Also, please stay in touch 
and let us know how you are doing.

God Bless you

Juhn Lehner
