God's decision

I know that some of you are very concerned about the subject of my chemotherapy but God has decided that I need it. I feel at peace with God's decision and will start my 4 rounds of chemo next Tuesday.

Each round will be followed the next day by a flushing of the chemo from my system. I have never heard of this before but this is the way that my oncologist does it. I will probably lose my hair around the third treatment, so I may be wig shopping soon.

Dr. Weirman, my oncologist tells me that she will do everything possible to keep me as healthy as possible throughout the process. She held my hands, looked into my eyes and told me that she would do the same treatment for anyone in her family... including herself, I trust her and thank God that He directed me to her. She wants me to walk everyday, drink lots of water, eat right and get plenty of rest at night, she believes I should be able to keep up with my normal routine and hopefully not miss much work.

Dr. Weirman is now on my insurance... Praise God!

My cancer was quite aggressive and I really don't want to tangle with it again if I can avoid it. On Friday I will have a port installed so that I don't have to be poked with needles at each of my treatments, it is usually very hard for anyone to find a vein on me without several tries and that is very painful.

When my chemo is done I will have about a month break and my radiation will begin. I appreciate all the prayers and support you have given me thus far. Please keep me in your prayers throughout this process.
