Last treatment!

Whom Shall I Fear
By Chris Tomlin


You hear me when I call
You are my morning song
Though darkness fills the night
It cannot hide the light
Whom shall I fear?

You crush the enemy
Underneath my feet
You are my Sword and Shield
Though troubles linger still
Whom shall I fear?

I know Who goes before me
I know Who stands behind
The God of angel armies
Is always by my side
The One who reigns forever
He is a Friend of mine
The God of angel armies
Is always by my side

My strength is in Your name
For You alone can save
You will deliver me
Yours is the victory

Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?

And nothing formed against me shall stand
You hold the whole world in your hands
I'm holding onto Your promises
You are faithful
You are faithful



Today marked the last scheduled treatment of my 4 cycle protocol. Woo hoo!!!!!

I get to have almost a month off before my next IV for the CT scan. My mother-in-law kindly sat with me and accompanied me for the last treatment. Today's IV was interesting - the nurse got the line in and I felt a warm spurt of blood all over my fist. Thankfully I wasn't looking otherwise I might have passed out... 

Some goodies to share during my last treatment

Now comes the waiting ... Waiting for my body to slowly rebound and get back to normal levels of energy. Waiting for the side effects to slowly wear off and hopefully return to normal. Waiting til the mid February CT scan and blood test to see if they got rid of everything.

During cycle 1


Now … Don't realize how much of my eyebrows and eyelashes I've lost
til I compare them side by side



Another great song my friend Kat introduced to me (thanks Kat - so comforting):

Sovereign
by Chris Tomlin

Sovereign in the mountain air
Sovereign on the ocean floor
With me in the calm
With me in the storm

Sovereign in my greatest joy
Sovereign in my deepest cry
With me in the dark
With me at the dawn

In your everlasting arms
All the pieces of my life
From beginning to the end
I can trust you

In your never failing love
You work everything for good
God whatever comes my way
I will trust you
