I did not post yesterday because, to be honest, I needed some time to digest the information given to us yesterday about Mom's treatment. As most of you know, I was not prepared for any of this buy yesterday's news, for some reason, just rocked my world (not my faith, just my day I guess). Anyway, we were told that Mom now has an aggressive stage 3 cancer that we must deal with quickly. That means that chemo will start on Wed. and last for 16 weeks. That is going to be extremely hard on her body. My prayer for that is that it will go by quickly and the Drs. can help keep her as comfortable as possible. The chemo will be followed by surgery and then that will be followed by 6 1/2 weeks of radiation. Please join me in praying that the chemo be successful and quick to attack this disease.
Like Mom says, all the time, we lean fully on our God who gives us the strength to go through this but He also blesses us with each of you that we will also be leaning on. You all have been a source of strength already and I know this will continue throughout this long road ahead.

Randi, I found your blog through Jennifer's. Am so sorry to hear that your mom's cancer is aggressive but I will be praying that the chemo does it's job quickly and effectively! I truly admire your family's faith through all of this and pray that God gives you all peace during these difficult times. It was great seeing you at Jennifer's shower a couple of weeks ago!
