Doing well after methotrexate spinal

Thank you all for praying for Colleen. She had a spinal on friday with the methotrexate and is doing well so far. Her back is sore please pray that it will heal quickly. Colleen has had a lot more energy since beginning with the methotrexate chemotherapy. She was able to attend about 4 graduation open houses today and really enjoyed visiting with everyone. It is nice to see her with more energy. She has been taking leukovoran which is a drug that they give to protect the normal cells in the body from the chemotherapy. Colleen is excited that she does not have to go back for a clinic appointment until Tuesday June 5th when she will be admitted for more chemotherapy. We are praying that she will continue to respond well to the chemotherapy and be able to come home quicker than the doctors predict. The average stay is 4 ot 7 days and she was home within 3 days. We are so thankful. Chelsea is ill with a sinus infection and laryngitis. Please pray that the Lord will keep Colleen safe from this illness and heal Chelsea quickly. God has protected Collen from any viruses or infections since she was diagnosed.


Psalm 37:17-18 The righteous cry out , and the Lord hears them, he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Our God is an awesome God. He is bigger than cancer and he is able to perform miracles and deliver us in our times of troubles. Thank you again for praying.
