> Subject: Christine Phillips needs your thoughts and prayers
>
> As some of you know, Christine Phillips, Founder of EDS Today, moved to
> Israel with her husband, Doug, for Doug's job. This week, we heard from
> Chris with some very frightening news.
>
> Doug has been diagnosed with a brain lesion which has caused his brain to
> swell. He has seen 3 neurosurgeons in Israel and has currently been
> transferred to Tel Aviv where he is under the care of the director of
> neurosurgery. The doctors believe this lesion may be a tumor that
> metastasized from his previous prostate cancer a few years back. They are
> doing what they can to reduce the swelling now. On July 4, Doug will
> undergo brain surgery to remove the tumor and to determine an appropriate
> course of treatment.
>
> As you can imagine, Christine is devastated. Doug is her life and she is
> deeply frightened and worried about him. She can use all the thoughts,
> prayers, and support she can get right now.
