Day Twenty-Nine with Cancer

Day Twenty-Nine with Cancer/Day Eight without Cancer:

After hearing that awful news yesterday, I have to admit that I wasn't really wanting to take on another day.  I was feeling pretty discouraged.  At some point I realized that I'm not allowed to give up.  That little girl can't just give up.  I'd be upset if she did.  Pastor Terry isn't giving up.  God isn't giving up on me.  So...what right do I have to be discouraged?  We WILL have the victory.

Grace's surgery was today.  I know that God will be with her and with the surgeons.  I can't wait to hear the amazing success stories. I sent her mom a message today.  I hope that I can go and visit her in the hospital.  I also hear that PT took a nice walk today.  I can't believe how awesome he's doing.  That's so fantastic!

My main incision is starting to look a little gross.  I guess it's mainly because the glue is coming off and now I can really SEE it.  Blegh.  I'm also feeling a little feverish.  I don't know what's going on, but it's a little unsettling.  I'm usually never warm.  I just really don't want any infections and the incision site is much more separated than I'd like.

Jason heard back from Finestra today.  They're going to donate a Troll bracelet, clasp, and starter beads.  Seriously?  A whole starter bracelet?  That's at least $200.  How exciting is that?

Dinner tonight consisted of fish.  I'm starting to eat more solid food!  Granted, I'd rather eat lots of other things than fish, but we'll work on the steak and hot dogs later.  :)

Verse of the Day: Psalm 42:11
Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again--my Savior and my God!
