Let the Games Begin!

Monday December 8th I begin preparations for chemo. I will be geting the central port put in my chest. This week I will be meeting with Doctors, taking an education class with Joe and my parents to know what to expect of all this, and having another biopsy-Yeah! I guess this means no more denial. I can't pretend this will all just go away. It is such a rollercoaster right now. I and my family are overwhelmed with the support and kindness, and concern others have shown us. We have seen the Lord's hand in our lives through the acts and prayers of many people in our lives. Thank you! One of the reason I like going to Hunstman is that they actually have a big sign above the clinic door that says Multiple Myeloma. The Dr. and staff are experts in this rare cancer and they do an excellent job taking care of me.

Our family's prayers are with you. You are such a wonder preschool teacher. I truly pray that you receive all the comfort you need during this time.
Keep your chin up and go "karate chop" this cancer.
