Trying to be a patient Patient!

The Dr. was not pleased with Ray's red blood count today, so he was given a shot ( promotes the growth of red blood cells) and goes back to the Dr. next Friday (17th) for lab work again. Obviously, he will not not begin chemo next week.

This was not part of the plan that Ray has in his mind. His plans are to begin another round of chemo every 30 days or so, (not exactly the Dr.'s plans) and then be finished in 2-3 months. He's counting the days when treatment will be finished and life (work) goes on. End of leukemia!

The words of St. Teresa Of Avila: "Be patient and leave it in the hands of God.... In every event the best we can do is leave ourselves in the hands of God."

Words for all of us to live by.


Love you all,
Kim
