" But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever. I will praise you forever, because you have done it; And in the presence of Your saints I will wait on your name, for it is good."  Psalm 52: 8-9

A little slow to post this blog but it was a bit of a rough week. Don't get me wrong, it was a week full of mercy, I just did not have the energy to write about it. My body is weak but it is well with my soul. So much good news to share. I went to Fox Chase not knowing if my blood counts would allow treatment but they were all good. There was no problem with the port as on the previous week when I was probably a bit dehydrated. The doctor then told me my C124 cancer marker was down to 800. It was 1600 when they tested at St. Mary's in early November and it was down to 1200 when I began treatment at Fox Chase which means it actually fell 400 points before I even started Chemo. That and the fact that I was told today that my stomach was soft and the doctor said he did not feel the mass is all mercy. And then they decided to just skip that lost week and continue on schedule so I am not behind after all. That is why it was a little rough this week because I had both drugs but from what I have heard my side effects are minimal compared to what some people go through and I am really happy that I am back on schedule. One more treatment and I get a break from chemo. The plan now is to get a CT scan to see if the cancer has shrunk and then I meet with the doctor to discuss surgery. He has told me it will have to be at least three weeks after stopping the chemo. 

Thanks for prayers...please don't stop now. God is good.
