Debbie rested well through the night. Today a stint will be place into her ureter which is the tube that connects our bladder to our kidneys. Debbie will have one placed just below her right kidney. There is a restriction that the doctors believe is being caused by a tumor. Her right kidney is under alot of stress as a result. This procedure should relieve that stress and much of the pain that she has been experiencing in her right side.
The Chemotherapy Treatments began Saturday night. I will update this blog each time Debbie has a treatment scheduled so you can pray for God's blessing on the treatment and protection for the good cells in Debbie's body.
The greatest side affect that Debbie felt yesterday was more fatique in the afternoon.
Debbie did eat on her own yesterday for the first time in about five days. She seemed to tolerate the soup well without any nausea.
Please pray specifically for Debbie's kidneys and bowels to function normally. Pray for the health of these vital organs as well as the health of her lungs and liver. Pray for her bones to be strenghthened to resist this disease.
Pray for Debbie and our family to receive the Lord's strength to face each new circumstance. Debbie and I discovered long ago that the joy of the Lord is our strength. We made a commitment long ago to praise the Lord in spite of our circumstances. We discovered that when we choose to praise Him for who He is and what He has done, we are strengthened with His joy. We also see our circumstances from His perspective. And this brings us great peace. Pray for our family to walk in this truth each day no matter what happens.
Ps 40:1-3
I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.KJV
