Happy Thanksgiving

Cancer | chemo | thanks | thanksgiving

This week has gone pretty well. I had Gemzar (a chemo drug) on Monday and it went all right. Ibegan a new anti-nausea drug that is working very well and doesn't make me as sleepy. I'm tired, but at least alert. I had my Neulasta shot yesterday to keep my white cell count up, but am having some bone pain today. That should go away by tomorrow. I feel like my whole life revolves around my treatment schedule, medications and what not. But that's the way it has to be.

Gratitude

Cancer | God | thankfulness | thanks

Last night I couldn't sleep, so I put on my ipod and listened to some music. I have mostly Christian contemporary music on it and I just let it shuffle the songs. My mind was kind of racing, so I needed something soothing and slow. I love Nichole Nordeman's music and sure enough, her song Gratitude started playing. Even though I had heard the song many times before, it seems that the words became more fitting and pertinent right now. It was as if I heard the words for the first time. In short, (an appropriate clause for me : )) she is singing about God's answers to prayers. Sometimes we ask God for things such as rain, shelter, peace and it seems that God doesn't answer us. But He provides us with all we need. We have prayed for answers to this cancer situation, but the answer certainly isn't what we expected. Thankfulness is often easily stated, but very difficult to do. We should be thankful for whatever God's answer is because He knows what is best for us.Here are the words to this song that is so fitting for this time of year.
