Frank O'Neill is coping well with "chemo"

Alison has e-mailed us with great news ... Frank is doing well. That's him with Giyani just before the move to Durban.

Hi Geoff & Marianne

So far so good. They are only going to give him 10 radiation sessions - apparently they have increased the normal dosage to 3x so that it can be done in a shorter time. He has taken his first 2 treatments very well and not been at all sick; in fact today after his session he felt like some oysters!! (I thought it was pregnant women who got strange yens) so we went to the Lifesavers Club for lunch and he got 7 locally harvested Umhlanga wild oysters and apparently they are superb!

Thank you for the prayers. St Marks and its wonderful people are always in our thoughts and prayers that you will continue with all your good work in Yeoville.

Love

Alison
