More troubles

Mr (Brother) Hugh Merrow-Smith, of Kings Sutton, Banbury, appeals to all his friends and acquaintenances, to pray for his daughter Catherine (55 and mother of three) as she has just been diagnosed as having lung cancer , and has just started a period of chemo-therapy in Aberystwyth General Hospital. I recently spent Christmas with Cathy and John,her partner of 22 years, and three children Edmund, Thomas and Kate and she had suspicions of a bad cough, although cancer was far from her mind. She is a non-smoker but works as a chef in a sort of ‘Betty Ford’ Hostel where the patients (Inmates) were all smokers or ‘ex’ druggies., although no blame can be placed on anyone. Love to you all, Hugh
