Week in review

Sunday Deb was able to attend church. It was a communion service with sharing afterwards. Deb was impressed to share a portion of her story and all week we heard about teary-eyed responses. Tuesday was the normal chemo day which begins with pre-meds at home. When she got to the clinic, her chemo had not arrived yet. She had to return on Weds to complete the weekly dosage but the pre-meds did not hold over in spite of the doc telling her not to take any more. So, Weds-Friday was not a happy time for Deb.
Her lifelong friend Lisa Lewis drove up from Thomasville Weds-Friday. They spent the three days lounging in the sun-room. Lisa is herself a multiple cancer survivor.

As I said before, Deb has dig-in-the-dirt dna in her body. She simply has to plant something every spring. Son Steve came down and he and I were dirt-servants doing Deb's bidding with manure, top soil, etc. To cap off the day, we cooked burgers and enjoyed relaxing together.

Even Oscar the dog got in the act. He insisted we play some catch with his ball. See the movie below!

  2. Praise the LORD! It is so awesome to see her up and about! It is a miracle after how bad things looked last year. We are so thankful to see His work in her and all He has done through her in the past year.
    We're so happy for you.
    Paul and Krissy
