Chemo: Tuesday, 12:45 for one hour.
I am claiming quick victory that it is only a one hour drip! Chemo can range from 15 minutes to an eight hour day.
Thank you Lord for the miracles of medicine, the work that chemo will do, the healing that you are doing in my body. Thank you for the mental blessing of not waiting anymore for "the chemo call". Thank you that I got to drive today, that it feels kind of "normal" in this moment, that I am so incredibly loved and supported!!!
Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.
