another postponement

After a turnaround and a good weekend we saw Dr yesterday and decided to try another chemo treatment. However Orin woke up this morning with a headache and nausea and the treatment had to be postponed. I had gone in to work as Mike our son was going to take him to this chemo treatment. When I got home Orin seemed not only ill but and complaining of the problems with his head but having difficulty thinking and communicating exactly how he felt. Each time that these "spells" happen I see him getting a little weaker and am reminded that his time to go home is getting nearer. While the Doctor will not say so, I just feel that the tumor on the right temple has not been successfully eliminated. He continues to complain of pressure there. Still, God is in absolute control and we will trust him to care for Orin and for all of us in the coming days and weeks. I was reading in the Psalms a few days ago that God has names for every star.... EVERY STAR!!!! if he has done that he will surely care for his children ... therefore.. we will not fear.... in His love.... Kathy

I think the most frustrating thing is the lack of control you have over what happens and when. We humans like to keep everything neat and tidy. But the roller coaster you are on will put it all topsy-turvy when you least expect it. How absolutely comforting it is to know that the God of the universe--the one who knows the stars by name--is in control. He knows us by name too!

I'm praying for you, my friend, and praying for your dear husband.
