#81 Shanksteps – leaving Cameroun

#81 Shanksteps – leaving CamerounWe just wanted to give all of you an update on what our plans are for the near future.  As many of you may remember, my (Audrey’s) mom was diagnosed with lung cancer just before we moved here in 2005.  At that time she underwent surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy.  She suffered through the treatments, but did well afterwards.  While we were home on vacation in June, we found out that she has metastases and has had to suffer through another round of chemo. This time she is not toleratingit well, and the first medication didn’t work.  With much prayer we have decided that it would be best for Sarah and I to return to the US to help out my mom and dad (and give medical and moral support) while she is going through this.  All three of us will be leaving Cameroun the 30th of December.  Greg will return to Koza around the 13th of Jan and Sarah and I will remain in the US as long as necessary.  Please pray for my family both here in Koza and in Connecticut, as this will be a difficulttime for everyone. —Audrey
