Hello everyone,
I am in GA receiving treatments. This is my fifth week here. It has been crazy busy and alot of side effects and stuff to deal with so I haven't been on to update! Figured I better get an update on here so you all know what is going on.
We made the decision last minute to come fore the first 6 week course of treatment. The Lord provided a backup plan for payment through our credit card. Although we did not want to go into debt with the credit card we figured it was the only way we could do it. However, for this first round the Lord has seen fit to provide almost all of the needed money. It has been a huge blessing to see God provide through you. other friends. my church family, and perfect strangers!
We were able to get into the Hope Lodge which provides us with free housing, laundry facilities, and great company with other cancer patients. Praise the Lord for his continued provision and guidance.
I will not know if this treatment is working until we get a PET scan in a couple weeks. If it has stayed the same or shrunk then it is working. I am praying that is the case. Since my original oncologist has given me no options besides chemo until it doesn't work anymore or my body shuts down I really need for this option to work.
While I have been here my tumor markers have gone down. I have had some problems with my health and White Blood Count going down, but otherwise not too bad. Can't wait to feel like normal again. Unforuntately my hair is again falling out but I am praying it only thins this time.
Thank you all again for your prayers and donations. Thank you for being such a huge blessing to me!
