I think today was my 8th chemo treatment and things are still going well, praise God.They said my counts are great and I seem to be tolerating it really well, so that is good! I am exhausted, but then again Chris says he is just as exhausted and he is not having chemo! I think it is just the season of life we are in with 3 little ones 6, 3, and 1 1/2.! But God is giving me the strength I need each day and also the peace that I have, so thank you all for the prayers. There is no other explanation for it other than God’s grace and mercy upon me from all the prayers being offered up for me and our family. Side effects are also still good, some bad things but nothing to complain about. Again words could never express the thanks and gratitude we feel in our hearts for the constant love, support, gifts, help with the kids and all the other things that are making our life manageable each day.
Thank you to everyone who is working so hard to make this fundraiser at the Firehouse on Saturday happen for us. We are so humbled and touched and are just so truly grateful. It is a blessing to be part of such a wonderful community. We pray we can soon give back once again and pass on all the blessings we have been receiving.
I have my first scans to check on the tumors and see what is going on on March 11th. I humbly ask for your prayers for that day as it is an 8 hour day of tests followed by chemo. But God is good, and I know He will give me strength and contentment during it all. The results will be discussed with us the following Tuesday, the 18th, so please pray for us that day especially. I know we need a miracle, but I also believe in them and am claiming that “by His stripes I am healed”
Isaiah 53:5
New King James Version (NKJV)
5 “But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.”
So thank you for being on this faith journey with us and for believing with us. Jesus is walking with us and He will continue to lead and guide us.
Love and God bless, April (:
