Chemo Therapy & Mesothelioma cancer

My sister-in-law had her first chemo Therapy Wednesday. As of today, Sunday evening she has not experienced the sickness that so many have with it. I pray that she will not.

Of course she knows that there is no cure for Mesothelioma cancer. But hopefully with this treatment it will make the last days of her life a bit better.

I have said that if I ever had cancer, and it was terminal, that I would not take chemo therapy, maybe seeing her go thru this I might change my mind.

They claim that this therapy helps with the pain, I wonder if that is true, or is it a selling point, for the doctors to make more money.

Her daughter told her, if your hair falls out I will cut mine off. Mother told her, don't be silly, that will not help me nor you. If my hair falls out, I will just deal with it.

Sometime back I saw a young mother of 2 fight cancer for 2 years. I visited her in her home thru out that time. I have often wanted to enter something about that. She went thru so much, but thankfully before she dies she accepted Jesus as her Savior.

Prior to that day she asked me to speak at her funeral. I told her I would if I outlived her. Them asked her what would she want me to say. Her reply was, preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I carried out her wish.

This afternoon Glenda got out for the first time, except for the trips to Hot Springs Tuesday to have test run, them again Wednesday to go for chemo therapy.

Her daughter drove her down to visit her mother and father. After church this morning Linda drove over there to visit her sister and see her parents as well. I hope during this time she will get to spend much time with her twin. I will try to make sure she does. For they may not get to spend another birthday together. They were born on Christmas Day 1947.

May God Bless,
Jerry
