Postponed....

...after getting 'prepared mentally' for my 3rd treatment on Wednesday... my chemo nurse called and said that my 'blood counts' are much too low...and to plan for more bloodwork on the 18th to see if they will come back higher!
so
please pray with me specifically......

about 3 years ago the plans started for a celebration/reunion of my family (3 brothers/2sisters) with my parents' 50th anniversary at a private beach house in North Carolina............ my sweet sis-in-law said the only way anyone could get out of it would be death!! (teasing of course).......... so this year when I found out I had cancer I teased back saying I wouldn't be there! Well my doctors have told me that I CAN go ... my parents are going to come help us drive to NC with room to separate our 6 kids (as you know how a LONG road trip can be)..... I'm praying that my counts will be up so the treatment can be the 19th so I will have several days to recover before we leave........ again please pray with me specifically....

so again... 'man may make his plans, but only the Lord will bring them about'...

    Sallee,
    I am praying for you right now. I followed your journey to Samson and then we brought home our little boy from Ethiopia in Jan. and didn't have as much time to read....Today, I happened upon your blog again. I will be lifting you, your husband, and your children up in prayer daily. I pray that God would hold you in his arms as you rest in that hammock on your front porch....Much Love to your family....

    PRAYING for you!!!!!
    As a cancer survivor myself I remember my treatments - I had radiation. That was almost 30 years ago now.....and it is still etched in my brain.
    May God continue to Hold You, Heal You, Protect You, and Guide You!!!! You are on my prayer list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That is great news! I am praying "specifically" at this very moment for you! May your count be where it needs to be...may the chemo not be so painful...and my you enjoy every minute of your parents 50th celebration! 50 years is something to be proud of. Congrat to them!

    "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

    Thanks for the info. Dealing with addiction can be hard and you should have an alcohol intervention for people you love when they need the extra help.
