Keep My Light Burning

For our friends and family

Yesterday was my weekly chemo treatment, and it went pretty well. I slept through most of it because of the drugs they are giving me. Mark was with me and drove me home to continue sleeping afterward. At dinner time I threw up again, so we’ll mention this to the nurse next week.

My blood counts are getting a little lower, which mainly affects my energy level right now. I am back to work every day except my treatment day, so I’m sure that contributes to the tiredness. I’m trying to rest more, and Mark has been fixing dinner most nights. I also start my last two classes for my master’s degree this Saturday. I am praying so hard that I’ll be able to finish these classes. It means a lot to me to have this done.

I hope you’re driving carefully in all of this snow. It’s beautiful, but we all know that it’s also dangerous. The kids keep betting on a snow day before they go to bed each night.

    Sandy, I know that you will finish your classes…I still think of you from the time in our cohort. I will you luck with your classes. You are such an inspiration to everyone you meet whether you realize it or not.

    Sandy,

    I don’t always write to you but I do always pray for you and yours. I admire your will and want to encourage you to continue the fight.

    Hug your kids, they are your most precious gift.

    Sandy,
    While going through my mom’s momentoes and such, I found a bookmark containing the blessing you wrote about in your January 7th posting. This leads me to believe that she also found strength in these verses. I now carry this bookmark in my Bible: I feel a little closer to Mom – and I am reminded of where she found her strength.
    I continue to pray for you, Sandy. Stay strong!
    Brenda

    God’s blessings and Happy Birthday!
