Keepin' the faith

Let me begin by saying we are so thankful to the Lord for the answered prayers for Roy's health.  We are amazed how well he feels. 

That being said, writing about him feeling good is not what I expected whenever I made the decision to keep everyone who was interested posted about our "new normal".  The fact that I had 390 text messages in about a 48 hour period of time initially was really what started this process.  Now, I don't have anything to say...which is good.  I told a friend at church this morning, I really have nothing to write and at the same time I don't want to have anything to write..that would mean something not so good might be happening!

We had a great week-end, doing exactly what we would normally do.  Had dinner with some really special friends, the Jameson's, on Friday night.  They live in the T&P  Towers in downtown Fort Worth on the 12th floor.  What a view when the storm started coming through although it ended up fizzling out.  Roy worked on Friday and Saturday, he came home tired but that would be normal after working all day.  I did the ballgame bit and just hung out.  Church on Sunday, which always lifts our spirits.

We are waiting on a call from M.D. Anderson to have an appointment for a 2nd opinion about the type of surgery he will be facing at the end of the summer.  We are praying that the next phase of chemo won't have any more effects on him as this first 10 days have had.  We are still expecting him to lose his hair, probably in the next 2 weeks.

So, if you are willing to pray for us, please pray that the next 7 weeks (which is about how much time he has left with his chemo) will go according to God's plan and we will praise Him in all that He does for us.  He really is in control and we know that whatever happens will be to His glory....but maybe not any mouth sores please Lord????

God is in control and holding our hands.

Awesome to be at church this morning and see Caleg (the 5 yr. old grandson) in a video..he looked so cute!  And then have the minister mention Shay (the oldest grand daughter) in a good way from the pulpit!  You always want it to be positive when the minister calls you out...right?
