"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

starting something new

So Monday Mom had chemo again. They've started her on a different drug now because she's on the 2nd half of chemo -->Monday was chemo #5 of 8. But the side effects are different and so its been a learning experience of what to expect with this.

So far she's doing well but has a lot of bone pain which is exhausting.

New things are starting for me as well. I have decided to do my 4th year internship (to finish my bachelor's degree by May) at my home church Berean Baptist in Brunswick. So I'll be living at home and working at the church (about 10 minutes away).


Saturday I am heading up to NB for 3 weeks. I'll be helping out at Coldstream Baptist Church's Vacation Bible School and then starting the school year up there. I'll return on the 11th of September.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers.

half way through in st andrews






So last week Mom and I went up to St Andrews NB. We were there from the 27th to the 30th and had a fabulous time. It was the week between chemo...the time she has the most energy. Aside from rash from the sun and a sore mouth she was feeling really good and so we enjoyed lots of outings such as a whale watch, a trip to the botanical gardens and high tea on water st.
as of monday (the 2nd) mom had her 4th chemo treatment. WE"RE PAST THE HALF WAY POINT!!! on the physical examination the lump in her breast couldn't be found. Praise Jesus!
of course that doesn't mean she's "all better" chemo must go on...but it means its WORKING really well.
that's all i have for now. sorry for not writing for such a long time. xoxoxo Liz
