Standing Firm



Howdy Folks!I wanted you to witness the popsicle fetish!! Does he look happy or what?? And yes you will notice some left over orange Popsicle on Dad's face :) I am telling you, he eats one after another!! :)




The little furry guy you see in his lap is my step doggy.....Louie. Dad loved a furry friend that could get in his lap! He called him "LuLu." Pretty Funny:)

Dad is tolerating the medication very well. He has not been sick at all.....PRAISE GOD :) He is through with the pills for now-Now they just take a few weeks to do their damage :) We go back in early October to see where we are.

We are so thankful that things are going well. Our prayer is that Dad will continue to tolerate the Chemo well, and that it shrinks that tumor!!

Most of you remember Dad's clinging cross. He has carried it with him through this trial. it has been a great tool to remind him of God's love and promises. The other day I found him a pocket size clinging cross. He didn't want it in his pocket-He wanted to wear it around his neck.....Right by his heart. That is just a little sign to show you where Dad stands! We Stand Firm in God's grace and mercy--We fully trust Him and know that He is in control.

WE BELIEVE!!
