Five Months In...

Today Jenny spent another four hours in the Infusion Center today. She has done really well handling the new chemo and avastin, for which we can be very thankful. Please pray that she continues to progress and gains energy in the coming weeks. Her blood test showed that her body is holding up well.

The next MRI is scheduled for April 21st, which will be after the third IV chemo treatment, we are hopeful that that MRI will show a reduction in the size of the tumor, or at least that it has not increased in size. 

I was looking back at the first post on this blog, which was October 2nd, 2012 - only 5 months ago, so much has changed in our lives, we know about things of which we would have preferred to remain ignorant, we have also experienced a totally unbelievable outpouring of God's grace, mainly through those that God has put around us. Your support, prayers, and constant care sustains us and gives us a picture of the body of Christ, with all parts working together to bring glory to his name.

We sang "Great is Thy Faithfulness" last Sunday, and they words have never been more true for us:

Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!“
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!


Amen!
