Today, the day after Chemo 2 feels significantly worse. Nausea medicines have increased so that keeps the food down thankfully but the mouth is just bland. The one ulcer seems to be healing but the entrance to the throat just feels scratchy. I am still able to swallow without any pain - So I am thankful.
I got medications for my hiccups which started at 8 am promptly..
a quarter tablet of Largactil made me so drowsy the whole day (like when jet lag hits) but at least it stopped the hiccups.
Please pray for endurance and a joyful heart keeping my eyes fixed on Jesus. Towards the end of the week, the radiotherapy gets tiresome and I dread going.
Please also continue to pray for minimal side effects and that I wont lose any weight.
Thanking you all once again for your prayers and comments and whatsapp messages and delicious meals for me and my family.
praying as you have requested, brother.

Remembering you and your dear family daily in our prayers to our dear heavenly Father."Day by day wth each passing moment,strength i find to meet my trials here;trusting in my father's wise bestowment i've no cause for worries or for fears.His whose heart is kind beyond all measure gives unto each day what he deems best.Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure;mingling toil wth peace and rest."

Delete17 Though the fig tree does not blossom and there is no fruit on the vines, [though] the product of the olive fails and the fields yield no food, though the flock is cut off from the fold and there are no cattle in the stalls, 18 Yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will exult in the [victorious] God of my salvation! [Rom. 8:37.] 19 The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hinds' feet and will make me to walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]! For the Chief Musician; with my stringed instruments. (Habakkuk 3:17-19 AMPC)

ReplyDeletePsalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord watches over you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
