PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSING FLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



SORRY I HAVEN'T WRITTEN, YOU PROBABLY ALL THINK I'VE BEEN SICK FOR DAYS, BUT NOT TRUE : FEEL GREAT. SORRY, JUST GOT BUSY WITH THE KIDDOS. THIS WEEKEND WAS GREAT. WE WERE ABLE TO GO TO THE BEACH AND I WENT TO A BRIDAL SHOWER. MY GREAT, WONDFUL FRIEND SHERYL STOPPED OVER WITH MEALS AND TOYS FOR THE GIRLS. MONDAY, ANOTHER FRIEND, KATIE CAME OVER AND WE HAD A GREAT VISIT . IT WAS A GOOD DAY AND RAY AND I LEFT ABOUT 3:00. TREATMENT WENT WELL. WE SPENT THE NIGHT AT THE WILMONT HOUSE AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO THAT THROUGH THE REST OF MY TREATMENT, BECAUSE IT IS JUST MUCH MORE CONVEINT TO THE HOSPITAL THAN THE APARTMENT. IT IS ONLY 3 MILES TO THE HOSPITAL. IT HAS FOUR BEDROOMS AND TWO BATHS, BIG KITHEN AND LIVING ROOM. THERE HAS BEEN NO OTHER GUEST THESE PAST FEW WEEKS, SO IT'S NICE TO HAVE THE HOUSE TO OURSELVES. THEY SAY IT IS RARE ONLY TO HAVE ONE GUEST. RAY LIKED IT AND IT'S COZY FOR ME. TUEDAY WAS A FULL DAY. I HAD BLOODWORK, CHEMO, SAW THE DR. AND HAD RADIATION. BLOODWORK WAS PAINLESS. CHEMO WAS MUCH BETTER THAN LAST WEEK. RAY WAS A CHAMP THROUGH IT ALL, NO TEARS. I HAD A WONDERFUL NURSE. SHE WAS SO COMPASSIONATE. SHE WAS 35 AND HAD TWO SMALL BOYS HERSELF. SHE USED A SMALLER NEEDLE THAN BEFORE AND IT WAS MUCH EASIER THAN BEFORE. THEY CHANGED MY BENADRYL TO ZERTEC AND MY HEART DID NOT RACE THIS TIME, MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE. IT TOOK ABOUT THREE HOURS. NO REACTIONS AND I FEEL GOOD TODAY. I WILL TAKE ALL MY MEDIATIONS WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. PRAISE GOD FOR ANTI NAUSEA MEDICATIONS. THEY SAY I SHOULD NOT GET VERY NAUSEATED AND IF I DO,THEY HAVE MANY MORE TO TRY. NO HAIRLOSS YET, AND MAY NOT.
AFTER CHEMO WE WENT TO SEE THE ONCOLOGIST. SHE WAS PLEASANT. SHE ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS, LISTENED TO MY CHEST AND LOOKED IN MY THROAT. THEN SHE SAID, "HOW DO YOU THINK TREATMENT IS GOING" I SAID...."TO BE HONEST, I THINK IT IS ALREADY SHRINKING. SHE SAID" SO DO I. PRAISE GOD - PRAISE GOD- PRAISE GOD. I HAVE HAD ONLY 2 CHEMO TREATMENTS AND 8 RADIATION TREATMENTS AND WE ARE ALREADY SEEING RESULTS!!!!!!!!
I CRIED. I WILL PRAISE GOD THROUGH THIS STORM. I KNOW I STILL HAVE A VERY BUMPY ROAD AHEAD, LOTS OF SIDE EFFECTS TO COME: SORE THROAT, DIFFICUTLY SWALLOWING, WEIGHT LOSS, DRY MOUTH, MOUTH SORES, REDNESS TO NECK AND MAYBE PEELING OF THE SKIN :( , BUT I WILL ENDURE THEM ...............GOD IS WORKING.

WE ARE HOME TONIGHT AND WILL LEAVE TOMORROW AT 4:00 AND BE BACK HOME MID MORNING ON FRIDAY.

PLEASE CONTINUE THE PRAYERS FOR CONTINUED HEALING AND SAFE TRAVEL, IT TAKES ABOUT 2 AND A HALF HOURS.

I AM SO VERY CONFIDENT IN OUR GOD.

LISA :)
