Another Day of Waiting

Good morning everyone last night was a pretty good night although not as good as the night before, because we didn't sleep as well. But all in all it wasn't to bad. The second dose of chemo is now complete and Katie is still not having bad of side effects from it. They are going to have to give her more blood because her counts were a little low again last night. The steroids they are giving her are causing her to be a REAL bear first thing in the morning, but after a little while she mellows out and all is well. We don't know what today holds as far as what tests they are going run on her, so right now it is just hurry up and wait. Katie is starting to warm up to some of the nurses which makes their lives and ours easier. Katie has also gained a little bit of weight. We want all of you to know how much we appreciate reading all of your sweet and thoughtful comments. May God bless your day.

  2. Good Morning Katie...We sure miss you!! Grandma and Grandpa were excited to hear you laugh and giggle yesterday on the phone. I fed Dash again this morning. He misses you too.

    Did you see the picture of Laura Beth eating an OREO that Uncle Ricky gave her? She loved it!

    Logan had his birthday party last night and he had an ice cream cake. He said he would save you a piece.

    Keep getting stronger so you can come home to us. Kiss Mama and Daddy for us and tell them we love them, too.

    I LOVE YOU...Aunt Karla

  5. Read Psalm 103:1-5 Over and Over Again! Even if your week, exhausted, or afraid.

    Let your reqests be made known to God. And the peace of God...will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

    Thought for the day....
    God carries us through our most difficult times.
