I’ve been wondering how you were.  Glad you fit the trial criteria.  Keep the faith, my brother.  I told you about my wife.  31 years ago, she was given 6 months to live by two oncologists.  She had metastatic melanoma.  There was less than 5% survival rate at that time with melanoma in that stage.  She got involved in a trial at MD Anderson.  It was very hard on her body but she is still here and doing well.  You will do well with the trial because of your faith and all the Prayers.  We continue to keep you and your family in our Prayers.

At risk of sounding like a Hallmark movie (which I'm WELL versed in thanks to being outnumbered 3:1) Wow, that's one of the nicest things anyone's ever said to me.  😊

I appreciate the thoughts and prayers 3rd Gen.  I feel the same way! 😁

Lol, I'm well versed in Hallmark movies and it's just me and my wife. I've found it's much easier to see all of the games and westerns I want to see if I watch a few Hallmark movies and shows with my wife. Give and take works very well. Plus, I imagine you wouldn't trade those moments with your three for anything else regardless. 😉

My wife has been through cancer treatment 3 times.  The first when the youngest of my three kids was only 3 years old.  Scary times... But she's sitting across from me right now and our youngest is now 27 years old.  The progress medical science has made in cancer treatment is incredible.  Keep the faith.

How are you feeling today @AUsince72? Isn't it pretty normal to feel crappy on the 3rd or 4th day? I'm saying my prayers for you! 

Thanks for asking 3rdGen!

Honestly, as my wife's uncle used to say "I'm fine as frog hair".  Fortunately I'm not suffering any overt side effects and the Dr & "main" Nurse feel like I probably won't.  I'll have a few long (6-9 hr) Tuesdays for observation and quick Wed followups for several weeks but otherwise, it's much easier than my chemo by a million miles....PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

I should know in less than 2 months if it's working.  Maybe we'll know something about football by then 😁!!!

Bless you sister!!!

Bless you '72.  Hope you're still holding up well.  Let us know how we can help.  

Hi JapanTiger.

Thanks for checking in.  The best thing is, as always, prayer.  Honestly, I am feeling better than I have in years!!

That's not to say my neuropathy and physical pain are gone (but they are very much more bearable with treatments) but I have been overwhelmed the last several days with an incredible sense of well being.....and even peace.

I'm going to say it... I've been washed by The Holy Spirit!  On Mother's Day, it hit me like a nuclear bomb!!!  I've never, in my life....even when I was saved, felt what I felt that day.  I'm even going through the process of figuring out how to start my own blog.  Thoughts, feelings, stories (not necessarily even all of a strictly Christian nature) have been flooding my mind, especially in quiet moments.  It's truly AMAZING!!!

I don't mind "announcing it here first", so to speak, because I have received SO MUCH love & support from SO MANY posters on this site even though, for a while, I was getting very down & cranky about.....let's just call them "the things of this world" that I'm sure some have been disappointed in me (as I was in myself) and perhaps even written me off.  STILL I am receiving so much prayer and support I am constantly overwhelmed with beautiful emotion!!!

Sorry if this rambles a bit.  No....coffee....yet....

I truly LOVE y'all!!!!

God bless!

Nathan
