Amy's 'momentary trouble'

Amy went today and had her CT Scan, now we wait until Monday to review the results. A friend of hers from church took her as I have already used my family leave and most of my vacation days for the year. She’s been somewhat frustrated this week because it being a week free of chemo, she really expected to feel better than she has. Even though she didn’t have treatment this week, she must realize that the chemo from the other weeks is still working in her body. Thinking on the nausea, headaches, stomach pains & exhaustion that she deals with on a daily bases, there are times when it’s overwhelming for her, especially when she look at having to deal with this every day for the next six months. She frequently breaks down and confides with me that she doesn’t know if she can do this for the next six months…and I always tell her ‘Yes, yes you can…you can because I will be there for you every step of the way.’ Not only will I be there for her, but family…friends…church and most importantly, God will be there for her. He will be there for her in more ways than ANY of the rest of us could ever be.

As Amy continues on this journey, please continue to pray. Pray for strength…pray that God provides perseverance…but more than anything, please pray that Amy starts to fell better especially on her chemo-free weeks.
