The beauty and warmth of summer is all around and I have been very much enjoying pulling weeds out of my garden. Even if it is just one weed at a time. :)
It has taken some thoughtful consideration but I have accepted that I have weeks of chemo before me. This Wednesday will be the start of week 15 and the start of round 2 of this cycle. I have come to the conclusion that God is teaching me patience. The good news is that I should be done in time for Christmas.
"But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, ...
Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee;
and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee:
when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee."
Isaiah 43: 1 and 2
I have nothing to fear. God has called my name and I am his. Even though I am going through chemo (or walking through fire), I shall not be burned.
Everywhere I go people are telling me how amazing I look. All I can say is that my healthy glow is God's doing. My hair is starting to return and I jokingly tell others that I am becoming a 'regular hippy'! :)
I continue working with my very sweet homeopath who is helping to minimize the chemo side effects. I continue to do my best in trying to eat the best quality food that I can. I continue to take my doctors advice. And I continue to pray.
All is well. God is in control! :)
