Coming to 3

Thank you all for your prayers! Fiona continues to be generally well in between Chemo sessions. We praise God for his mercies, they are indeed new every morning!
The next chemo session (#3 of 6) will take place tomorrow. Later this morning, we will be taking the usual pre-Chemo trip to the hospital for a blood test which will determine Fiona`s fitness to proceed with tomorrow`s session.

As previously reported, the pain in the back has largely receded, unless brought on by "excessive exuberance" :-). The cramps in the legs still occur occasionally, but less than before.
Above all of this, Fiona`s strength is gradually but surely returning. She is much more mobile now, and even does a few half-days at work each week (as much to keep busy than anything else). Through this, we know that God continues to do His healing work in her and we Give Thanks.

However, there is a cause for some concern with the recent development of flu symptoms. If carried over to after the Chemo session when Fiona`s immunity is low, the bug could cause problems. Please pray for very quick healing.

Pray too for the blood test later today, that it will show that Fiona is ready for tomorrow. By the grace of God, her last blood test results were very good, and we pray for the same results today. For those keeping a close watch, I will post an update tomorrow after the Chemo session. God bless!
