On Thursday....

After praying the prayer below, consulting with our resident meteorologist (and then applying my usual +/- 25% fudge factor to his forecast!) and also talking things over with the MDA nurse Lisa, we decided that the wisest course of action was to wait until Thursday to go down for chemo. By then hopefully the roads up here will finally be clean. Also, a one day delay in the chemo schedule is not a problem according to Lisa.

I've asked Susan how she's feeling about the talk with Dr. Munoz today. In particular I was concerned that continuing to fight the disease (a la TLK286 treatments) might be too much for her. She assured me that she feels "pretty good," and wants to keep on fighting as long as there is any hope. That reminds me of the verse from Romans 8: " Hope that is seen is not hope. Who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it in patience." Thanks for praying for us.
