Cycle Eight - Complete!

Amanda took her last chemo pill last night.  Overall, she had a great week.  Unfortunately, today she has been in bed all day, feeling miserable.  While in the past she has felt bad toward the end of the week, this time it seems to have hit her later and a little harder.

I am still a little on the puny side, but feeling much better.  Whatever I had, it is hanging on longer than I would like.  What a week to get sick!

So as we complete cycle eight, we now have only four more cycles to go.  I am still just in awe over this week's MRI results.  What an amazing answer to prayer!  As I mentioned in my last post, I still feel like we are in the trenches, and with how Amanda is currently feeling, today is a great example of that.  It is a stark reminder that we are still living through the process. 

That's okay though.  It's hard to put into words, but it is almost like there is a weight that has lifted.  We will, however, continue to live as we have been the past eleven months.  We will continue to trust that God is sovereign and His way is best.  We will enjoy and fully live in each moment, not taking anything for granted.  Through every step in our journey, we will continue to try to live our lives to glorify God.  Please keep the prayers coming!

But, as it is written,

“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
    nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him”
