A tough week


This past week was Susie’s first week on chemo at a higher dose.  It proved to be tougher than we expected.  Please keep her in your prayers as she has finished this course.  She is very fatigued and has spent the better part of the last 3 days sleeping and in bed.  The good news is she will be off for the next 4 weeks until her next round in December. 

Also, please keep our kids in your prayers.  Talya has had a little cough.  Charlie has had a cough and has had trouble keeping his food down as a result of it.  I’ll be taking him to the pediatrician tomorrow. 

Thanks for your continued prayers and support.  We were told to expect these sorts of side affects for Susie, but going through this last week was hard.  We pray and hope for the Lord to renew Susie’s physical strength in the days to come.  We continue to be thankful for how He provides for us each day.

  5. Ben and Sus, God has given you such a hard race to run. Praying Isaiah 40:31 for you today and everyday that God would renew your strength so you may continue to soar on the wings of eagles and as you continue to run you will not grow weary as He takes you through this hard hard time and you will be able to walk in Him as He continues to display His glory through you. Oh how I wish He had another way. Love you both so much.

  6. Prayers for your family. I remember when Aaron did the chemo gig and the bathroom became his best friend. It's hard to be the one on the sidelines wishing you could take their place.
