The cancer center called me today regarding my latest CT scan. Unfortunately they did not get the information they requested (a comparison with the previous CT scan) so we have no information about the latest scan. I may be having a 4th chemo treatment on Friday, but I won't know until Thursday afternoon.
I am still feeling quite tired these days although David was able to have a friend over today and we all got along well. Then David and I walked to the mailbox which is at the end of our street. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful boy! I pray earnestly that God will allow me time to be his mommy until I'm at least 100. It was such a beautiful day today that we even pulled some weeds, pruned some bushes, swept out the garage, and visited with the neighbors.
God has been so good to us by providing this wonderful home in a neighborhood filled with caring people. We are so grateful. We have been in our home just over a year now and feel like we have been here for years.
I recently read that some cancers stop responding to chemo after so many treatments. I guess it's like antibiotics losing their effectiveness if over used. It makes me a little nervous since I have already had 3 treatments and will likely have 3-6 more after surgery. Surgery is going to be pretty invasive. I only met with the surgeon when I was first diagnosed back in early January. At that time she was talking about removing my spleen, uterus, ovaries, and part or all of the colon. I wonder what she will say now. I wonder if the treatments have been effective enough to save part of the colon. I wonder if the chemo treatments will be effective after surgery.
This weekend is the prayer vigil. Prayer and Fasting March 23 & 24. Lord help me to be a prayer warrior for others.

Praying for you and Tim and David. Stay strong. Sounds so trite but God knows all about everything and you have to hold on to that fact. God is in control. Praying you will keep being an example to so many others. Keep that light shining girl!!!!!!
