OMG,  I just received an email from my brother Buddy's wife.   He has been diagnosed with esophageal  cancer.   The growth is right where the esophagus and stomach meet and only effects 12,000 to 15, 000 people a year.  I can't believe I have yet another sibling(he is the 3rd, our 2 sisters have died from it, one in 2002 and the other 2 years ago) battling this hideous disease of cancer.  This is one of my brothers I just found out about in 2001 so he is quite special to me.  Please, please keep him in your prayers.  Thank you. 
 
 
Hugs,
Mimi

Well, you're both in my prayers. It's so difficult to watch someone we love have to deal with an illness, especially cancer. I'm looking forward to the day they can come up with a cure for cancer.

Please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you go through this very trying time.  I unfortunately have witnessed first-hand the ravaging effects of this dreaded disease.
 
Stay strong ~ and be there for each other!!   That is the best you can do!!!
 
And always, although it is not always easy, always keep the faith!!

esophageal cancer is actually a common outcome for people with acid reflux disease - there are treatments available.. including cutting out the esophageus and raising the stomach up like a tube...  Also, there are pills that can help people with pre-cancerous tissue in their esophageous.. if you have acid reflux - see a doctor!!
 
I'll keep your brother in my thoughts!
 
Btw - I hear there is a hospital in Nashville Tennessee that specializes in these kinds of cancer.

Just wanted to thank you all for your prayers for my brother and give an up date.  He is doing really well.  He had surgery to remove the cancer and have his esophagus re-routed to his stomach.  He has undergone 2 rounds of chemo and so far is cancer free.  Please continue to keep him in your prayers along with anyone else who may have this horrid disease.
