"How much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?" Matt. 7:11
"Jesus is laying down the rules of conduct for those who have His Spirit, and it works on this principal-God is my Father, He loves me, I shall never think of anything He will forget, why should I worry? There are times, says Jesus, when God cannot lift the darkness from you, but trust Him. God will appear like an unnatural father, but he is not; He will appear like an unjust judge, but He is not. Keep the notion of the mind of God behind all things strong and growing. Nothing happens in any particular unless God's will is behind it; therefore you can rest in perfect confidence in Him." Oswald Chambers
I am finally updating my blog and apologize for the wait. It has been a long road and it is still winding its way in all different directions. The final results of the surgery were not as we had hoped. They were not able to clear the margins of cancer and had to even do a skin graft to be able to close. I've been going back and forth to the plastic surgeon as they are checking the skin graft and the donor site on my leg to make sure there is not infection. My oncologist wanted me to go to Emory for a second opinion so I went on Tuesday. Upon their recommendation, I will be going on Arimidex which will block my hormones and going off of the daily oral chemo Tykerb for now, as well as continuing Herceptin by infusion every 3 weeks. The radiation oncologist recommended doing the radiation even though I have had it before, so I went to be marked for that today. I should start the week of July 30. It will be 2 times a day Monday through Friday for 5 or so weeks. Please pray for minimal side effects and that the skin graft will not get infected. There is a chance the radiation could damage the skin graft and it would fail.
Thanks for all of the cards, meals, and mostly prayers for all of us!
