Yesterday was the last treatment of my first round of chemo. According to the doctor it is the most invasive toughest round to endure. The next one will be much easier according to him. And concidering that my side effects though troublesome have been minimal I am feeling blessed. Dr. Schwab says this is as good as it gets with chemo. So we know that God truely has had His hand of protection on me. My white blood counts have been high thanks to the Neulasta shots that I receive the day after each chemo treatment. My red cell count is low and I am more enemic after each chemo treatment, which was expected and may require a transfusion if they get too low. But the doctor is watching all those things carefully.
Rick is off golfing today as it is Thursday. I love that he is able to get out in the fresh air and do what he loves to do. Hope he has a good round that will be icing on the cake.
As always I am in His Mighty grip,
Love Kathy
"Thus far the Lord has helped us."
1 Samuel 7:12
May the Lord continue to encourage you and give you strength as you live each precious day. Love you. Here's a prayer I found this morning:
ReplyDeleteJesus, right now as I begin this new day, I surrender my place of authority over my life to You. I am placing You firmly on the throne of my life. Teach me to focus on Your desires for living. I give You my entire life this day. In Your powerful name, Jesus, amen.
