I invite you all to listen to the Hillsong United Church that I have linked above. The song holds extremely special meaning to me as it was one that my dear friend Lois shared when she was first diagnosed with cancer and now she is heaven resting in the presence of Jesus. This song is helpful to remind me that God is with me and really at the end of the day all I need is Him.
I had my oncology appointment yesterday...
Tonight I start round #2 and guess what???????? If my body doesn't get itself together and get my white blood cell count up then round #3 will be lessened or possibly put on hold which wouldn't be to good because as much as I HATE taken these wretched pills, they are very useful and necessary in helping me evict these 2 tenants in my head.
My bones have softened a bit but not dangerous; just something to keep our eyes on and of course lets not forget the whole reason I was collapsing......yup, my seizure med levels just will not stay down so they're on they're way up again but I'm all over it.
I don't want to drop again, that would really suck if I was in the line up at Tim Hortons (plug) and I'm just about to order and BAM I drop.
So as far as the bone density, I will have regular x rays to monitor and I have been given strict instructions that I must not do any hard core slamming in a mosh pit at a heavy metal concert. :)
That's about it, more anti-nausea pills to take so I'm praying, and you too please, that they are strong enough to keep everything down, otherwise Jesus and I once again will be sleeping in the washroom.
Thanks again for all your prayers. Its kind of funny, when times are tough we sometimes ask "where are you God" but then there's times like this when I have NO doubt that Jesus is in the bathroom with me.
So I will stand strong, make my smart ass comments and as my boss would say, use Gallows humour to get thru. I come by it honestly.
Bless you all.

Hi Mel: Just keep that Timmies card working as and when necessary. Just keep those prayers going. Just keep all your friends prayers going regardless of what other life issues they have as one can always find time for a prayer for a friend in need. Just keep that sense of humour. Just keep that bathroom clean (hopefully you won't be hugging a porcelain fixture but .... just in case!). Just keep ....... well, just keep being you. You are very special and so many people love you and are very proud to know you (and that includes us!!!!!!). Just keep smiling.
