"Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." Psalm 103:2-5

Chemo #2 = Goodbye Hair...

So here it is. Mom is losing her hair. She kinda reminds me as a molting duckling. She rubs her head and hair falls out. Our bet is that by tomorrow it will be gone as she showers. She is taking this in stride.

Chemo went really well today. She mostly slept through it. When she wasn't asleep I read aloud to her from "Pilgrim's Progress"...which is (I'm finding) a fantastic read.

We came home...and wished we were back in the air conditioned hospital...UGH SO HOTTT.

so...after mom slept for a while we ate cream-sicles and played in the sprinkler...

Chris made us a delicious dinner.

And after we ate mom and I went for a drive to the ocean...
and blessed the sea side with mom's fluffy white hair which floated off in the breeze.

And we got more ICE CREAM
...cuz Mom has cancer. its our excuse for most things.

"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
nor shall the flame scorch you...For I am the LORD..." Isaiah 43:2-3a
