One Hundred Sixty Days After Surgery

Debbie’s CT scan went well. We will meet with the doctor a week from today to discuss the results.

Debbie’s hemoglobin count is low. Please pray for this count to rise to its normal level.

Her CA 125 count is 13. This is the count that shows active cancer cells in ovarian cancer patients. Our doctor wants it to remain below 20. Please pray for Debbie’s immune system to continue to wage war and destroy any cancer cells.

Debbie’s diet is primarily vegetarian with very little processed foods or meat. She is using some supplements and herbs. She walked three miles yesterday. She is very active again and we are very grateful for what the Lord has given us.

Perhaps you have noticed that I have titled each blog with the number of days since Debbie had surgery. This experience has caused me to have a greater appreciation for each day that the Lord gives me with Debbie. I am numbering each one of them in God’s honor and as a sign of my gratefulness for His mercy.
