Update

Hi yall!  I apologize for not posting lately.  Honestly, I just haven't felt up to it.  I just had my second round of the new chemo regimen on Tuesday and it's been agreeable this time!  The chemo pills made me sick, so we switched to a 46 hour drip from a pump and while it's a bit of a pain to be hooked up for 2 days, it's not that bad.  My only problem now is the pain.  When we get this tumor shrinking and the pain disappears I will feel normal again!  This chemo doesn't make me tired, or effect my blood counts the way the harsher chemo did.  No scans scheduled for a while, we're going to give this chemo time to do it's thing.  God is still in control!  Thank you for your prayers.

    1. Anonymous...no need to be unkind. We have no idea what is happening with this young woman and her family at the moment. Be loving and continue to pray for her, no matter how long it might take to get an update. And you know as well as I do that you can pray for as many people as you one to. You don't have to stop praying for one person in order to pray for another. The Lord hears them all. Whitney...continuing to pray for you and your family.

    2. What a terrible thing to say. Does not everyone always need thoughts and prayers? Do you not have the time to say one for one additional soul fighting their way through this life. Please exhibit more kindness for your fellow man.

    3. Anonymous....REALLY??? I agree with Carole and Janice, except that they were too kind to you. Your statements are RUDE.
      Please don't reply if you cannot use your head. It's NOT all about you.

  17. shocking. let her fight happen with love and peace. this woman, her illness -- they have nothing to do with you and your selfish demands. she has let us in on her journey, but only caring and kindness should be present here.
