24 down....

...and 4 more to go!! Ahh! I'm ready for a BREAK! God has been so good on this journey. I know He is with me moment by moment, but the end of this phase is in sight, and it just can't come soon enough. I don't really feel good most of the time. The past week I've been really tired and by mid afternoon I'm not good for much other than sleeping on the sofa. So thankful for those of you who are feeding us, cleaning my house and driving me to treatment!
 I do feel confident that the treatments are doing their job. I feel different. What I'm suffering now seems to be more the side effects of radiation and chemo rather than the cancer itself. I'm so thankful that God is working on my behalf and healing me!
  So many Psalms speak to me in this time. David was so honest at expressing His feelings but I love that  he always ends on a positive note reminding himself of God's goodness and faithfulness in the face of suffering.
  Psalm 31:14 is one the many verses that bless me in this time.
 Desperate, I throw myself on you: you are my God!
Hour by hour I place my days in your hand,
safe from the hands (cancer) out to get me.
Warm me, your servant with a smile;
save me because you love me!
We definitely do feel so loved and have been warmed by many smiles! This Sunday we have plans to go see Tim Hawkins at The Worship Center. We are ready for some fun and laughter. We planned this way before we knew I had cancer. Please pray that I will be able to go and enjoy it! I plan to do everything within my power to be rested up but some "higher power help" would be nice too!
  We don't really know any specific details about the next phases of my treatment yet. The month of May will hold more Dr. appts and planning. It will also be a time for me to heal, gain strength and take a vacation with my family!...oh and turn 42 years old! :)
  Blessings to you all! Thank you for your prayers! I'm gonna go snuggle on the sofa!
Marcia
