Sat Nam everyone! Here is the good news: I feel great and the chemo treatment went really well. It was only 4 hrs instead of 6 and I am doing really well. The radiation therapy is short and sweet and the people are super nice. The healing has begun!
Friday evening was astonishing. So many of you participated and both Steve and I felt such love and support. I trust the hand of God is working through each of you to uplift and heal me in ways I cannot even imagine (and I have a really active imagination!) Thank you so much for treating me and you to such an uplifting vibration.
So here is the challenging news. I have a brain tumor. It was detected on CT scan, and MRI shows it to be pretty difinitively a metastatic tumor. The great news is that it is small. It needs to be treated separately as the chemo I am recieving does not cross the blood brain barrier (which is a good thing) and the treatments offered are from brain surgery (NOT) to targeted radiation. It is called gamma knife and sounds like the best option. Much better than radiationg my entire brain..... OK GOD I think I have had enough.... You can stop now. Blessings to everyone. Keep up the prayers, they really help. Love and light to all, Dyal Kaur (Martha)

I am glad to know your first treatment went well. You were in my thoughts all day. I, too felt the goodness and "awesomeness" of Friday night and know this added strength as well as your already positive attitude and energies will continue to heal and uplift you.
Martha,
I love you, hold you and support you in all that you do. You have consistently and silently affirmed my Being, giving me permission to be the "best" me that I can be. You are truly a light in this world, and no matter what happens that light will never be extinguished. You have touched lives, healed bodies and soothed souls. To you, I will always breathe "Wahe Guru."
I love you. Be well.
Sat Nam,

Martha, as I am surrounded by "drugs" all day you were very much in my thoughts today. I'm so glad Day 1 went well. Both Joe and I felt that Friday night was an amazing, uplifting experience. Even Joe let some of that positive energy affect him! You're in our thoughts every day :-)
Martha, so glad that your first treatment went well. You remain in my daily thoughts and prayers....

Dear Martha,
God must truly know how strong and courageous you are, for you have so much to handle. I know I have told you this before - and this image may not be in your gentle nature - but, now is the time to "hunker down and fight". Lance Armstrong - and his strength and courage - and success--in fighting his cancer comes to my mind.
I have found these images helpful to me in my struggles and perhaps they can help you too.
You are often in my thoughts and always in my prayers - so much love and healing surrounds you and will hold you up through all this.
Love, Carolyn

Hi Martha,
I have to tell you that Kaye had us doing downward dog for a full 5 minutes last night! All the while I could hear your voice saying "just a few more seconds" "hang in there" "you can do it"!!!
I miss you..and pray that each day brings you strength and healing. You are so giving to all around you and have been to me personally that I wish all that and more for you now and always.
I hope to see you soon.
Sat Nam,
Kathy (your pioneer)!
Martha:
You are in my heart and prayers. Please know that I was with you in spirit on Friday evening. Continue to focus on your healing and know that your friends support you.
Namaste
Dear Martha,
You do not know me but I am Dr. Marg's friend from NC. Currently I am in Greenville, SC at Atlanta Bread Company typing this to you.
I just finished bringing my buddy Mario to his second from last chemo & radiation today. Mario is beating this!
So can you!
Mario is an artist from Spain and studied Fresco Art in (actually cleaned )Pablo Piccaso's studio as a young boy of ten. The Master caught him one day after finding this young boy "studying" his nude models.
Marg and I talk every night and both you and Mario are right there with us. You have been added to my nightly prayers. A purely selfish act on my part. I wish to visit with Marg someday and meet you.
The same week in early March, you should have a special guest while I will be at my father's 85th birthday in Ark. I hope to talk to you then.
If you want to should want to ask about Mario's journey please email me at

I tried yoga once...got a hernia. Just kidding but the positions I got tangled up in were not flattering I'm sure to the rest of her students. For some reason they moved the class the next week--nobody told me. I even know the warrior pose. Can't do it...but know it in case someday I ever need to well, use it!
GodSpeed and kick this thing. This spinning rock needs good lookng yoga instructors to make it a prettier site!

Dearest Friend,
You are NEVER out of my thoughts. I still can't comprehend all that is happening to you. I know in my walk of faith, that there is a reason for all of this. We may never know.
You are in inspiration and I'm proud to be in your friendship circle. I miss you and love you. May the Good Lord hold you forever close and give you and Steve the strength and courage to face your battles. Prayers are being sent to He who hears and answers them. Trust in Him and Be Not Afraid.
Love,
Deborah
