Today, August 12, is Sandra's birthday - 71 years old.
Our birthday chat by phone was awesome. As some of you know, her body was weakened by cancer which had metastasized - so she was down to 110 pounds and slipping. It was unfortunate that it took the medical people so long to diagnose her so it was advanced.
She and her family conferred and decided to enter a regime of chemotherapy. I am not sure of the exact dates but as I recall, she began her treatments about two months ago. She has gone through three of the series and experienced only minor symptoms and did not lose her hair!
So last week they did the first test and found that the two larger lumps are showing definite signs of diminishing. Sandra was delighted with the results of that test and is now eager to get on with the rest of the treatment. I think she is somewhere in the middle.
As you know, Sandra is a firm believer in prayer and in the love of the Lord. Your prayers on her behalf in the past are much appreciated and she asks for ongoing prayer for the weeks ahead.
By the way, instead of losing weight in the therapy, she has gained 10 pounds!
Her email address is smc2008@comcast.net
