Over the Hump
As Dr. Edlund said today, I’m over the hump. I have 16 more treatments to go. That’s not bad. The skin that’s being treated looks tanned/burnt with little black dots all over it and it’s in a perfect square formation with a little blotch on my right shoulder. It doesn’t hurt that bad, but the latest development is itching. That’s normal though and not a big deal. I compare everything to chemo. From a paper cut, to a cold, to radiation. I compare it all to chemo and if it’s not as bad as that, then I can deal with it. So the radiation side effects, compared to chemo, are a walk in the park.
It’s strange to be able to visually see where I’m being radiated. It really is a large area. It reminds me how big the tumor was and how serious the cancer was. I love saying “was”. I don’t have cancer anymore!
I’m done with physical therapy. I have exercises I need to do daily or I feel the muscle tightening up and I lose range of motion on my right side. I’m glad to be done with that. It’s one less appointment to go to.
My hair is growing back and I’m just about ready to rock my short hair do. I’ve been wearing my wigs yet because I’m not a short hair kind of girl, but I’m ready to have nothing on my head.
The kids and Dusty are doing great. Samantha is walking all over the place and Max is close on her heels, but he still reverts to crawling when he’s in a hurry. Brooklyn is doing great and loves school. Dusty is doing well and is having fun updating websites that he created and maintains - Haven church and Compassionate Heart.
I would also like to say I’m glad 2009 is gone. Behind us. In the past. Never to return again. Bring on 2010!
Thank you for your prayers and support. They mean so much to us. It’s so good to be out and about again - back to church, hanging out with family and friends, running errands, etc.

Hi Lindy, It is so good to hear that you are doing good. Bob and I both said on New Years Eve. “Good bye 2009 and 2010 has to be better” I know how you feel about the hair thing. Mine is coming back also but not fast enough. It came back really curly, so it looks differant but, any hair is better then no hair. lol. Take care of yourself and we will continue to remember you and your family in our prayers.
6. January 2010 at 06:20
Praise God for His faithfulness to you through a very difficult 2009 and looking forward to the great things He has in store for you in 2010! Love you guys!
6. January 2010 at 14:02
Wow Lindy! You are almost there. Good bye to 2009 and hello to 2010. Hang in there! As alway you guys are in my prayers.

Praising God for how far you’ve come. I’m amazed each time I see you at how good you look and I LOVE your hair. You look really good with short hair!!!!!
Love you all!

So glad to read that things are going well for you and your life has returned to some degree of normalcy. It is interesting how things that would normally be a big pain for us actually are minimal when we have endured great pain. I am glad that you are on the minimal discomfort side of treatment. Praise the Lord for a new year and with good things to come! You should have a big party for yourself around May. You deserve it! I would love to get together with you sometime.

Thanx for your updates, we continue to pray for you and the family.
A new year, a new life, new and different relationships, a closer relationship with God, with the Holy Spirit who works within us, a new outlook on each day God gives us even though it was not promised.
The new people God brings into our lives, the new seed we plant in peoples hearts [not knowing when or who], the new meaning each day has as we move forward in the plan God has for us, the awesome feeling we have as God prunes,molds and gets us ready for His Kingdom,the renewed hope we have for the future.
Lindy, these are just a few of the new feelings and new understandings of God’s will for my life since He healed my heart and soul which was consumed with a deadly disease..
We pray For God’s will in your life. Have a blessed 2k10.
Psalm 121
In God’s love JIM
