Joyce and I just returned home from another visit to Stanford yesterday. I got a blood test and had a follow-up visit with my Bone Marrow Transplant doctor. Everything went well. My blood counts are up where they are supposed to be and, so far, I am recovering from the process a little faster than expected. The doctor said that he is “very pleased” with how I am doing. I will have another follow-up visit January 17th and then a PET scan in early March. Please keep me in prayer that I stay cancer-free, which is what we expect. I feel better than I have felt in a long time though I still get tired pretty easily and the edema is still a real annoyance. The really good news is that I can resume a normal diet (just in time for Christmas) and I don’t need to wear the mask any more, except at doctor’s offices. Thank you for praying for us. We appreciate it very much.
My life “Mission Verse” is Ezra 7.10, I believe God has given me a ministry of teaching the Bible wherever I go, in a way that relates it to the people around me, whoever they are. So I will share here what is going in my head, my life, my family, my challenges, my trials, my heart etc. I’ll try my best to do it openly and honestly and to share what God is saying to me through his word and all the other things in my life without holding anything back.
