Snow Day!

Snow day! Believe me when I say that teachers get just as excited as students. Especially when we learn that we probably won't have to make it up! Woo-hoo!! It's the little things...

Well, it's been a LONG time since I've posted. My scans continue to show no growth in the cancer, so I am now only receiving Zometa once every couple of months. I never thought I would get to this point. God is SOOOO good! I continue to receive Zometa because of the cancer that is on the bone. Cancer on the bone disrupts the healthy regeneration of bones and causes them to be compromised and vulnerable. Zometa can help prevent these complications. However, because it is treating the bone, I usually have a lot of bone pain after treatment. Now that my treatments are less frequent, I seem to be having more pain. I had a treatment last Thursday (today is Wednesday), and my bones still hurt. But praise God, I don't have to do this as often!

Thank you for your continued prayers. I know I can speak for so many others when I say that prayer works. I read about people everyday who are dealing with life's challenges. I really don't know how anyone makes it without faith in our Precious, Almighty Savior. He is worthy to be praised!
