Getting things done...

So mom will start her Chemo this coming wednesday. In the mean time mom had to get some things done, before. Including going to the dentist. Mom went to the Dentist this week and found out that she had mulitiple fillings that needed to be redone, and she had a tooth that was really bothering her. She had an appointment at 10am, she at that point got all of her top teeth cleaned and fixed. Then she had to come back at 4pm to get the bottom one's filled, and cleaned. Once that was done, she was exhusted! Too much dentistry for one day, but better to have it done now, then later in case of infection while on Chemo therapy.
Mom this week got a wig, she says it looks much like her own hair and is glad that she has that available for her. She also is having a small shaving her head party on March 6th to have her head shaved, as she will be loosing her hair. She has decided to shave her head before all of her hair falls off.
This weekend mom is headed off the Kingsfold retreat center with a few wonderful ladies, she is very much looking forward to that. She also asks for prayer on handling the first round of Chemo therapy and that she will be feeling alright following it. Please pray for strength as this is a very scary time, chemo is so hard on the body and not one cell in the body is not touched by it.
This time is hard on mom, and the family and we all need the strength to be strength for mom as well.
God has been with us during this journey, and we know that he will continue to be with us.
Thanks,

Keep On Prayin!!!


Mom and the kids
