January 11, 2015 - Chemo 1, Day 5

This has been an historic day!  Tony has been telling me about the services at LF West, and it sounds like it was an incredible weekend at all three campuses. Thank you to everybody who texted pictures and videos and tagged me in posts; it was almost like I was there!
I didn't make it to church today. I'm glad that there was no ambiguity about whether I could go; that made it easier. I had trouble walking from one room to another, and washing my hair seemed an overwhelming task, so that sealed the deal. Thankfully, the emotional overload (possibly from steroids?) has gone away, so I haven't been crying and crying. That's a huge improvement! God has been very present today at our house - there has been such a sense of His peace!  
Please pray that the sores that have appeared in my mouth will be short-lived. I am thankful for such a small number of side effects, and for so many people who God has put in our lives to encourage us. 
"Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing." James 1:2-4
