Friend with multiple cancers: this gal is somehow managing
to get through this. She finally had the last radiation on her brain, has a few
more on her tummy then a cat scan on both. She has another chemo coming up
within the next week or so. The doctor said it may take several months to start
regaining strength because both radiation and chemo are affecting it as well as
being tired all the time. It's a long journey but she is determined to make it.
Determination aside, I'm trying to make sure she also has lots of hugs and love
and prayers to ease the journey!
Friend beginning dialysis: this gal's home finally qualified
for in-home dialysis equipment setup and she has begun those 4 hour sessions.
She is finding the "waiting and sitting" during the treatments to be
her biggest hurdle at the moment. She and her hubby are always active,
especially outside in what they lovingly call a garden and I insist must be a
farm. Normally she'd spend downtime by making hats for our group on her
"knitting loom" but I don't think she can do it during the
treatments. She, too, needs hugs and love and prayers to ease the way.
Brother's cancer issues: my brother just had a checkup after
that kidney cancer surgery and those prostate radiation treatments. His doc
says so far, so good, and wants to see him again in six months. He's
optimistic, as am I and his wife.
Sweet Lord Jesus, for the continued forward progress, no
matter how slow, for these folks, I thank you for all your help. Please bless
abundantly all those praying for these folks. And please continue to bless and
heal and comfort and strengthen these people who need your help so much. We
trust in you.
