I was unable to pull up the blog sight while in KC since I am slow at all this computer stuff. Sorry!
A week ago today my son-in-law, Clint and a friend of his drove up to pick me up and drive my car back to KC so I would have transportation. I am so grateful because I was able to get out and about and gain some strength and independence.
Tuesday, Jenn, Nicole, and myself saw Dr. Verda Hunter-Hicks the top specialist in KC for my type of cancer. She basically agreed with the protocol established in Columbia, but was going to call the dr. in Columbia. I have an appointment at 11AM on Wednesday with her (Honeycut). Thursday I will be seeing the surgeon and hope she releases me, so we can get started with the treatments.
All of the birthday celebrations (Charli, Nicole, and Ben) went well. My brothers and one sister-in-law from northern Iowa came down. Ann flew in from Richmond, Va. I really missed my sister Denise who was unable to attend. A lot of emotions went into all the visits. God has blessed me with a wonderful family that loves me dearly.
I drove myself home today and am very tired. I listened to a CD made by special friends (Andy, Brooke and Kristen) as I drove home. It is a recording of Christian music that touches me deeply. Andy and Kristen are young adult children of very special friends from church. Both of them participated in Chuck's memorial. Brooke is Andy's wife. As I listened to the words of each song I was reminded of how God is always with us and He never leaves us alone. Praise be to God!

ReplyDeleteColette,
ReplyDeleteGood to have you blogging again! So glad your trip went well and that you were able to celebrate family birthdays. Praying for doctors' visits on Wed and Thurs. And praise God for His gift of music, for those who share their gifts, and the comfort God brings to us through each other when we most need it.
