Round Two Tomorrow

“But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.”
‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3:21-26‬ ‭

Getting ready for my second go-around with the “Red Devil” tomorrow at 9am! I’m prepared and ready for the fight!..and Plan to win Round 2 too! God has been with me every step and will continue to go before me & with me, He hems me in with His presence! (Psalm 139)
So thankful that I have felt great this past “in between” week, blood counts were good and minimal to no side effects....Got to fully enjoy and appreciate the time (they were SO SO helpful and fun!) with my parents before they headed back home to Michigan last Friday.

Since then I had a productive week at home and have had FUN dates with my boys- Sunset SUPing with Brody, my 15 yo, and a walk/take out brunch with Kaleb, 17yo, both in Dana Point Harbor and both accompanied by our four-legged, furry family member! Luke, I still owe you a bike date!  Hot “post-poison” date with my main man planned tomorrow night! Love my boys!

The one side effect at started today...my hair started to come out in clumps! I’ve known it was coming but it was a little emotional when I kept getting handfuls. It’s one thing to know in my head it’s an inevitable reality, it’s another when it becomes a reality on head! Sassy scarves, here I come! My love, your Bald Beauty (I hope that’s how you’ll see me!) arriving soon!  Beyond grateful to know your love for me goes deeper than my hair follicles! “For better or for ‘baldness’” you promised, right?!

God is Good!

 Well I’m finally back. I have written SO many mental posts with updates and what’s God been teaching me!! Then when I finally get a minute to actually take them out of my mind and onto the screen, my mind bottlenecks and gets overwhelmed with all I want & need to write...it exhausts me & I end up concluding that I’m too tired and don’t have time to transcribe all that’s in my mind onto digital paper. But as I sit here alone at the Denver airport on a long layover en route to Atlanta to celebrate my sisters 50th, I’m starting! We both have September birthdays, hers being on the 10th. We decided to save the celebrating til my chemo was complete, hence the delayed timing of the trip. My younger sister who lives here in Colorado is on her way to meet me and we’ll fly this leg if the trip together! And my parents are traveling from Michigan to meet us as well! How crazy (& sad!) that we are all spread out across the country, coast to coast, north to south- we are so close r...

Song in my Soul

  Song in my Soul by Phil Wickham A dear friend sent this to me with her daily encouragement & prayer...I loved it from the first time I heard it! I hope you will too! There's a song in my soul ( how music goes deep into the core of who we are!) And I feel it stirring in me ( springing up from the well of His Word to satisfy the thirsty, he who drinks the Living Water will never thirst again!) This I know for sure ( faith is the assurance of what we know but don’t see) That Your love is like a flood ( washing & washing over me ! And Your mercy never ending ( “ The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” ‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3:22-23‬)  I give my song to You ( “ Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that fills it, the coastlands and their inhabitants...Let them give glory to the Lord, and declare his praise in the coastl...
