A whole new ballgame

Please keep my Sweet Hubby extra close in prayer, if you would...He began his new chemo regimen today. The meeting with the oncologist was, hmmmmm, shall we say - futile?

On October 24th, my Sweet Hubby has an appointment to meet with a new oncologist. This is the one originally recommended to us by the GI doc back in July. He is a Christian. We hope he's an aggressive, go to the wall for his patients, won't roll over to cancer kind of oncologist. We're prayerful.

We have church tonight...looks like we might miss it. They medicated my Sweet Hubby pretty heavily today as this chemo regimen causes nausea. He slept through most of the infusion and is passed out now. Sleep is good. Restorative. Tomorrow will be a better day.
"The disciples therefore said, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover." John 11:12

We are keeping the both of you in our prayers.
Thanks for stopping by my page today. I know I have had some unusual things to post recently. But, I just can't get past the nagging feeling to post what stays on my mind.

Thanks to you and Vicki, James...

You need to post as you are led - "all things work to the good..."
