Its amazing what small things we learn to celebrate...mom just took a lap around the floor and she did not get sick. Praise God! She also had half of an Italian Ice and whole Ginger Ale! Sounds so small and trivial but it speaks volumes in our world. She has not eaten in two days and for her to be able to eat a couple of bites brought a huge smile to my face. She was tried after her walk but she did not get sick. We are learning to celebrate the small things. God is good!

Doctor Heffner did his rounds and her chest sounded good. He is pleased with her progress. She will start knew chemo tonight. One will last for 24 hours...be in prayer for her. She is very nervous about starting this chemo regimen. After she does the 24 hour round she will take a break until day 11. They will keep her in the hospital for observation.

As we were taking our "lap" she was asking me, "who has the kids" and "who is feeding the dinner." So mom...always thinking of others.
