I'm sitting in the hospital getting my chemo and thought I would give you another update. I had my scheduled follow up with my doctor on Wednesday and the appointment went well. My cancer levels have gone up just a bit (he thinks it is due to them leveling off since they have dropped so much over the past few months). He told me it was nothing to be concerned about but that we would continue to monitor the levels in case they do start to rise again. I am scheduled for a CT scan on Monday (I normally have them every 3 months) so it is a perfect time for me to have another one to see what the cancer is doing now. I'm asking all of my prayer warriors out there to pray that the Lord will bring complete healing in my body. The Bible tells us that it takes only the faith of a mustard seed (but many times it is hard for me to have faith even that small). My doctor has told me that there will always be "scar tissue" and/or tumors that are in my liver that will show up on a CT scan. However, I serve the Great Physician who can, if He so chooses, to allow the CT scan to be free and clear of everything--tumors & scar tissue!! I'm asking all of you to continue to pray the Lord's will be done (but asking in faith that He will provide that miracle in my life). My CT scan is scheduled for this coming Monday at 2:30pm.

No news is good news.....
I've been reminded yet once again to update my blog :) There really hasn't been anything to post so I've figured "no news is good news". I've had my chemo every other week--with labs at the hospital every week. I have my normal follow up appointment with my doctor the middle of next week so we will see what he says. My treatments have been going great with no side effects and I feel really good.
Last week Simon and I bought a Vitamix. We have heard so many good things about them and everyone we know that has one LOVES it. Well, I do too. Since we purchased it I have had a smoothie every day!! I've also made soup and sherbet too--all with healthy ingredients. Some of the smoothies I've made look really gross (cause I add spinach, etc...) but they are very tasty!! :) Easy to make & easy to clean. I'm one happy girl!!
May you have a blessed weekend--remember to change your clocks on Sunday!!
