Ben

I know that you are all ready to hear about Ben...sick of hearing about me!

Today was Chemo #4A. He did very well. He told the doc about how sick he's been after each treatment. The doc seemed to hear him this time and wrote all kinds of meds for him. He even wrote one for him that he said would help him forget things. He said that "associations" cause most of the sicknesses. Very true. If you say the word chemo, Ben gets nauseated. On the Friday morning of chemo, he starts to get the bad taste in his mouth that he usually gets from chemo. So, the doc said this would help to break that cycle.

When I picked Ben up tonight from chemo, he said he felt like he should be going into surgery. The medicine has just made him feel loopy.

A precious family from our Sunday School class brought dinner to us tonight. Such a blessing. Ben ate it up. Thank you, Lord! So, now we are just going to relax tonight and try to stay in from the yucky weather.

Thank you all for your prayers.
