day before kinda weird..no solid food and not much 'giddy up' at all..
Today, Thursday..well, the fever has come, nausea as usual and more..and as mentioned, we were told this would be part of the 'standard discomfort'..the routine..But what a routine..
Becky just talked to me briefly via phone..I am working today, yes, I am trying to work a few days. She sounded exhausted, but good to hear her voice..
One note Becky wanted to make. For the past few months, leading up to hospital admittance, Becky would wake up in the early hours of the AM..2am etc. Just couldn't sleep, perhaps due to a few factors, including prednizone..BUT she also knows in her heart of hearts, it was the Lord allowing her this unique and extended 'quiet time'..She would be awake 3 to 4 hours or more..Reading scripture, praying, doing BILLS! and other work. She notes..that now she can't even focus for more than a 10 to 15 minutes on reading, writing and any other related activities. She has a 'one article-magazine' mentality right now. Likes to watches Jeopardy and a few other shows and then rest of course..
She just knows the Lord provided this wonderful quiet, reflective, productive time leading up to the stem cell procedure..She treasures she had this, cause now it seems quite foreign..
Again, we pray these new stem cells will make a nice comfortable home in Becky's marrow..
which will produce a gradual increase in white cells.
As always, thank you for your support..

Becky,
ReplyDeleteWe all love you so much and you remain in our prayers. I know my God is a healer -Jehovah Rapha! I trust You Lord, I know of Your great love for Your daughter Becky and I eagerly await to see Your miracle working power manifested through her - Your glory seen on the earth! For You are a great God and nothing can stop You from saving. Jesus, the man with leprosy came and knelt before You and he said, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean." And You reached out Your hand and touched the man and You said, "I am willing be clean!" and immediately he was cured of his leprosy. Father Your word says that You are no respecter of persons. So Father together we cry out, “Lord if You are willing please heal our sister Becky. We pray this in the name of Jesus, AMEN!
Continually praying........thank you for the continued updates, and details relating each day. I agree, God is definitely using this time for many reasons, but especially having time with Him and in His Word. Good reminder for all of us :) Love you!
ReplyDeleteHey.....I wuuld like to have a time of prayer with the pastors again if we can arrange it? I think the more people joining hands holding Becky up is key! If the pastors are not available lets just find a time to do it ourselves! We Love You Becky, hang in there through this "forty days"! Love, Christine
ReplyDeleteBecky, Bill and Abbey,
