Hello to All,
Ann and I returned from Houston this afternoon, having completed her second round of chemo, just in time to eat supper together as a family. We are now thankful for things we previously took for granted.
The second round of chemo was tougher than the first - both physically and emotionally. We have heard from fellow warriors that this is often the case. We will return to Houston on October 19th for tests to see if the cancer is growing, has stabilized, or is shrinking.
Some of the kids spent the weekend with friends; some stayed here at home. Fortunately, the house was still standing when returned and truly looked great. Each child has stepped up in his or her own way to help out.
Ann will be here in Dallas for about 2 1/2 weeks to rest and recover. Her mother comes from St. Joseph on Wednesday to help handle some of the "mom" things, so that so that Ann won't try to.
Prayer Re-Runs:
- That Ann would enjoy being a mom without acting like a mom while here at home.
- That the tests on October 19th would show that the cancer has at least stabilized.
- That God would completely heal Ann in his time and in his way so that she might know our grandchildren.
Psalm 30:2-3:
O LORD my God, I called to you for help
and you healed me.
O LORD, you brought me up from the grave;
you spared me from going down into the pit.
Thanks for your prayers and concern,
Howard & Ann
