one more again

well, thank you everyone. monday's chemo went okay. it took only 3 tries to hit the vein for the IV (instead of 5 the time before). i was quite sick for a good part of the week, but had tuesday off and have a long weekend this weekend to help recover. we had a cookout yesterday, and i'm off in a minute to see an old friend from out of town - so, all-in-all, a good week.

my next MRI is scheduled. it is going to be this wednesday morning about 10. please say a prayer for this. please pray the technician is able to get the vein (for the contrast) on the first try, pray for clear results from the scan, pray for wisdom for my doctors to interpret the images, pray that i can have a bit of a break from my current chemo regime for a while (or for good!). pray that God would heal my cancer, my stomach, and my sinus'.

thank you for all your prayers and consideration these last 16 months.
