Two-Thirds

I am two thirds of the way…the light at the end of the tunnel is growing bigger.  Today went very well…as well as chemotherapy can go.  My mom took me today and that was a wonderful change.  We had breakfast and were able to visit on the way down and back.  She sat with me some and went and got me lunch.  It was nice to have her there to support me.  Bill was glad for it too because tomorrow he has to play the piano for the head of music at North Georgia College so he needed to practice all day.  (He is tranfering from Truiett to NGA to study music education)  Then we went to his mom’s for dinner.  What a blessing that is.  I have great support from my moms!

They got my port 1 time no problem! Hurray for small miracles.  I was groggy for a while as usual, so I napped to beautiful music that my friend Heather put on CD for me.  I have some noise canceling head phones so when I put them on and close my eyes I am transported to the throne of God in worship.  It was such a peaceful place to be.  So much so that I fell into a deep sleep for a couple of hours.  Calm in the midst of the storm…I just love it when God does that for me.

I saw the doctor and he said I can return to work in Jan. if all my tests look good.  He also added red count shots today.  I have to have one a week to help with my anemia.  So now I have a white shot and 3 red shots…all I need is blue to be very patriotic.  For all of you prayer warriors out there, please pray that my platlettes don’t drop too low.  When that happens you have to have a platlette transfusion and it delays chemo for three weeks!  I don’t want that to happen.  Mine are low but not too low at this point…if we lift them to heaven they will be high enough πŸ™‚

 

One thought on “Two-Thirds

  1. Don’t let your illness go to your head.

    What you got will never kill you if you keep it in your lower body,
    but if it gets to you head you are in danger. Worrying kills more patients than cancer itself.
    Keep you illness where it belongs-and don’t let it go to you head.

    Have a blessed day Ray.
