Anniversary

Yesterday was a big day. Tuesday, December 8th marked a year since I have been diagnosed with cancer. It has been a long year, but one filled with many blessings. I have found many new friends and rediscovered many others. There has also been the prayer circles which have been a blessing showing God's true grace around friendship. We experienced another wonderful prayer circle on Monday.

Yesterday was also my 4th treatment out of the 4 scheduled for this round of chemotherapy (it has been my 23rd treatment total). My blood counts have been good for each one. It has been amazing what prayer and visualization can do to help blood counts.

Yesterday, I also found out my cancer blood markers have gone up from 238 in October to 425. So that isn't good. That may mean a new kind of treatment. We meet with the oncologist on Thursday, December 17th to talk about what all of the numbers mean and what we are going to do next.

Remember the time for the true Christmas season and don't get too crazy with "holiday stuff".
