Sunday results

Our fine nurse today...possibly our last day ever in the cancer clinic for treatment, we pray!
Deb's labs really have shaped up and we are so grateful! We did bring some infusers home. My best estimate is that Dr Nair will release us to come home when we see him at 1pm tomorrow. Pilot angel Jon is planning to pick us up. Due to weather systems we are not sure if it will be Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning. Prayer warriors : engage please!

It really could be our last day in the cancer clinic. Perhaps not, but it could be! Deb and I have that feeling we had when we passed significant milestones in our lives like HS and college graduation, weddings, births, etc. Deb has endured a lot to get to the end of this phase of active treatment. Her pain and misery have been great. I can see how easy it would be for someone to give up and prefer death to the fight we have endured.

There are no guarantees and we could live out our days and except for the three years of home chemo, never come back into the clinic except for testing, or we could come out of remission and be right back here battling again. Only the Lord knows!

We are so eager to get home and look forward to sitting in the yellow sun room with many of you in  the coming days. I'm doing laundry and beginning to pack.

We are so grateful for each of you!

  4. God is so good. And you two are wonderful examples of faith. (Besides, you're just "good people" as my older relatives would say.)

    So thankful, especially this week, for all of His blessings.
