Tuesday Night
Greetings from Home – Praise the Lord!
We got out about 2:30pm this afternoon and got home about 5:00pm. It was great! But, the best thing was the bright, colorful sunshine. After all those days of clouds, darkness, and rain, today when we left the hospital, it was very cold, but beautiful. The sun was so bright, and when you sat in side, in the sun, it was so warm. Buddy really enjoyed it. First thing this morning, when I put the blind up, he hopped up on the back of the couch and just started soaking it in. Praise the Lord! Marty sat up in the passenger seat, while I put the jeep on the back of the motor home and she was in the sun. So, when I got finished and was starting off, she mentioned the warmth of the sun, even though it was so cold out. And then a little later on the trip, Marty mentioned how great it was to see the sun shine all around, instead of just out one little window. Praise the Lord! My first thought with the bright, beautiful sun this morning was God’s warm smile and grace on Marty as she got out of the hospital. Since she had been in the hospital this time, this was by far the greatest and brightest day. A sign of God’s love and grace on Marty as she was leaving from this treatment. Praise the Lord! God is good – all the time. All the time - God is good!
Marty had another bad nights sleeping last night. So, we are looking for a good one tonight. The right shoulder is still causing pain and being treated with heat and pain medication. Other than that she is really doing well. She has tolerated the chemo rather well, not had any problem eating, and/or keeping food down. She drank a lot of water in the hospital and took at least 4 walks all around the 6th floor each day. So, her lungs sound great and her strength is still up. Praise the Lord for all of the stamina, strength, desire, positive attitude and approach, and grace that He has given to Marty. Oh, by the way, the numbers are coming down, just the way they are supposed to. So, we will be doing every other day blood draws for CBC. We would expect that platelets and blood will be needed in the next seven to ten days or so, as they have been the past two times.
Well, I think that about covers it for tonight, except to again say GO COLTS!
Have a positive night and a day tomorrow that truly glorifies our God!
