Patricia Weaver

Wonderful friend, phenomenal teacher, terrific tutor, magnificent mom.  No better mentor exists.  A woman whose impact far exceeds these words/definitions. 

I know that many of you know and love her.   

Please spread the word.  Forward the following to others whose children have been a part of Patricia’s world.

Best, I think, communicated in her words:

Dearest Lois,

I thank you for asking me to pray again for Kathi.  I have been and I will again.

In the meantime, would you pray the same for me as my cancer has spread to the lymph nodes.  If Kaiser approves, I will begin a three drug trial on July 1 at Stanford, and like Kathi's medicine, mine will go through a port.  Mine will be a day 1, day 8, day 21 cycle, very aggressive.  I have never needed so much prayer as I do now, though I know that because of people's prayers, these last four years and nine months have been very peaceful years for me (even with one PET-CT every three months, about nine different radiation treatments, etc).  And I do mean peace-filled.  In the process of having treatments in various facilities, including Stanford, I have truly been blessed.  This is all because of the tremendous support of friends.  So as I write those words, I know that the spirit of Goodness, the God of the universe, will indeed carry me through the hard treatments ahead.

Love to you, and blessings to Kathi,

Patricia
