Chemo #3 Doesn't Happen

I missed Peggy's second chemo treatment while traveling. I was with her today as we went in apprehensively, hoping to complete #3. We knew her blood counts were low but were hoping they wouldn't be too low. Alas, her white cell count was too low. They gave her the first of a series of shots; she was to have these on four consecutive days, but now it will be three. We sat next to a nice Christian couple from Monet in the treatment area, Ken and Marianne. He had had the shots before and said the pain can make you uncomfortable. When we left we had two new prayer partners. Peggy began experiencing severe back pain when we got home. It is bone pain this medicine causes. She is in bed now and the pain meds are starting to kick in. We will try try again next Weds. Thanks, all, for the many prayers.

"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair...." (2 Cor. 4:8, NKJV).
