Hanging In There!

Ugh. Today was a rough day. I would have thought that getting to skip one of the radiation treatments on Friday would have made a difference in the way his face/lips felt, but he wasn't that lucky. Even after a 3 day break, he was and IS pretty miserable. In fact, I think he wanted to run away this morning and not go to the treatment. Who could blame him? As usual, he was our STRONG Papa and went through with the first of the last 5 treatments. He also had his regularly scheduled chemo appointment this morning. As some of you may know, all of the Decatur General chemotherapy patients were being transferred to the Cancer Institute today which made for a hectic, busy day at the center. Dad did not get out until after 1:00! He hadn't eaten and didn't feel well so he spent the remainder of the day resting and trying to recuperate. He is simply "hanging in there"!! Praise God that it is almost over. Friday should be the last radiation treatment and hopefully today was IT at the chemo center. There is a possibility that he might have one more treatment Monday after the last radiation, but I am not sure. As I have said a million times before, Dad has been such and inspiration and testimony for us all. His faith and positive attitude have carried us all through. Thank you GOD! We pray that he handles the last few days of treatment without getting any worse. We cannot wait to hear those words..."It is all gone and your done!" To God be the glory!
