Tim took the last of the Zelboraf pills that he was taking as treatment for the melanoma that had such a drastic affect! In the beginning, anyway, but not so much now. The doctor wants him to be off of the Zelboraf for 2 weeks before beginning a 4th treatment. This treatment is a trial where a herpes virus has been changed to work as a cancer killer. The treatment will be injected directly into the stubborn spot on his chest that has never gone away and also into the new lump that formed a couple of months ago. Praying this one is the one that will make him cancer free!
I had one last bout of diarrhea earlier today, so am hoping the virus I had is gone! I don't think I have eaten as much all week as what I usually do in one day! :D So, yes, I've lost a couple of pounds! I'm getting ready to go to bed so that I won't go hog wild in the kitchen, which I feel like I could easily do!
Thanks so much for your continued prayers on Tim's behalf! They mean so much to us!
Nite!
Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer
O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen
