Chemo Round 3 Starts Tomorrow

Round 3 of chemo starts tomorrow. After this, dad has 1 round to go.

Dad is tired but hanging in there. He needs to gain weight to keep up his strength, and he's working hard to do just that. He's working hard to get lots of calories in and keep them in.

His smile is still there through his tiredness. The kids and I are have been here for a while visiting. Dad has enjoyed our visit, and has loved listening to the kids' laughing. And we have loved seeing dad and helping mom out for a little bit.

Mom and dad got a good report from the doctor on Friday, so we will take all good news. Dad is still seeing a marvelous acupuncturist who is helping with his vocal cords. Prayers for the acupuncturist's healing as well.

Dad also did the Glo Run with us. He was able to walk across the finish line, which was absolutely awesome to witness.


I continue to be extremely proud and amazed at both my parents for how they have dealt with all the trials and tribulations. Their faith, humor, and unwavering love and devotion are incredibly admirable.

Please keep the thoughts, prayers, and well wishes coming.

Isaiah 43:1-3        "..."Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine! "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you. "For I am the LORD your God..."
