Good News today from Dr. Meeshad! April 24, 2013

Today as many of you know is chemo day.  Mom went in for her bloodwork and after Dr. Meeshad got the results he came into her room and told her that the bloodwork was excellent and that she didn't have to take the Neulasta shot tomorrow.  Matter of fact, he even went as far as to say that she could consider herself in remission after just 2 treatments.  Hallelujah thank you Lord!  She does however have to take all 6 treatments so after todays treatment she will only have 3 more to go.  Thanks to all of you that have lifted her up in your prayers, came by and visited, emailed her, sent sweet notes, and brought food.  She loves you all very much!  Please continue to pray for her strength and appetite.  God is Good....All the time!

Scarf Tying

I was using Dad's head teaching Mom how to tie her head scarf and I think he enjoyed it!  I couldn't resist sharing this photo with you guys.  They try to keep a smile even through the darkest days.  I love these two!  Tracy

Today is a good day! April 10, 2013

Today Mom actually got Clinton to drive her up to the Nail place for a pedicure and they stopped by my work to see me.  She sure looked pretty today!  Thank the Lord that the 4 or so days of excruciating pain after chemo are over.  Her next chemo treatment is scheduled for April 24th.  She really misses attending church and getting to chat with her friends at ESBC.  Please go by and visit her or just give her a call 586-8467.  She would love to hear from you since she's been isolated so long.  Remember.....she doesn't have leprosy....just cancer!  Thanks for all you have done for she and Clinton through food, cards, visits, and emails.  They really appreciate your friendship!

Update April 3, 2013

Sybil/Mom/MeMaw went this morning for her second chemo.  We've been praying for high white blood cell counts so that she could forego the Neulasta Shot tomorrow (which caused her much pain after the first chemo).  She did her bloodwork and before they started the chemo she was told that her bloodwork looked great and she would NOT have to take the Neulasta shot tomorrow.  Hallelujah!  Needless to say we are ecstatic.  Thanks for all of the prayers.  Please continue to pray for good bloodwork results and for an appetite!  Will keep you posted as news comes along.  We love you guys~
