ISRAEL'S FLAG


The flag of Israel was designed by a man called David Wolffsohn.

He chose two elements for the flag.
The first was the colours of blue and white, to represent the tallit (Jewish prayer shawl)
and the second was the Magen David (Star of David) which had been used as a Jewish symbol for a long time.

biopsy II results - February 12, 2009

Ann writes:


Hi Everyone!

I sat with my doctor today about the biopsy results from the tumor removed in January. The news was very good. The growths were surface growths and had not penetrated far into the muscle. Also, they were only stage I, which means we caught them very early on. My doctor believes that this means my body is responding to the treatment.

The next step is to do three consecutive treatments in March, and then another cystascope exam at the end of April, which will mark 3 months from the last one.

I also have an appointment next week in Jerusalem with a specialist there in order to get a second opinion, just to be sure everything is okay.

It has been an incredibly busy month, and my family and I have been blessed in more ways than I can count. I'll try to write all about it in the next few days.

Thank you again for all your concern, your prayers, your support and your friendship.

A very relieved Ann!
