Last Chemo Starts Today!

God willing, Christen begins her last chemotherapy treatment this morning! We had a delay of one day because the hospital didn't have room for her yesterday.

It is amazing to reflect on how God has sustained her and all of us through this entire ordeal. Each one of you have been such an important part of that. We appreciate more deeply than we can express the many prayers and acts of service.

Christen is really looking forward to feeling better. Her hair has actually already started growing back. She is getting around nicely but tires easily. Yesterday she went to some of her classes but after a few hours was too tired to go the evening class.

Please continue to pray for her transition back to "normal" life. Life will never the be the same as it was before but we know that God always does what is best and by His grace we trust Him.

Thanks!
Steve & Debbie

Oh, Christen....a light at the end of this tunnel! Praise the Lord. You have so many people praying for you and thinking of you often. You are a tough cookie! Dwell on the Lord, and on His goodness. We love you, and will continue to pray for you and your family!

That is so wonderful and the answer to so many prayers. What a wonderful testimony this all has been and will continue to be. We will keep praying for Christen's full recovery.

I've been following your blog for the past few months, and you've been in my thoughts and prayers. I rejoice with you that the chemo is coming to an end! I pray for Christen's healing and for the Lord to fill you with His strength, His perfect peace and His wisdom. Indeed, how awesome is God's faithfulness and how endless is His grace and love!
