Hey everyone. Sorry its been a while sinse I`ve updated this blog. I havent been feeling well and I`ve been a little bed ridden the last week, but I`m feeling better now. When I went to chemo last monday, I felt fine. It went pretty good actually, no nausea or anything like that. My foot has been giving me a bit of grief the last few weeks though. I have a pinched nerve due to the lymphoma and its making my foot think its in a lot of pain. I have pills for it, but apparently they take a few days to work in my system. It`s been almost a week and I`m still feeling the pain. The last few days I have had stomach pain, and were not sure why. So that and the foot have kept me off my feet for almost a week. My stomach is good now and today I`m feeling pretty good. The doctors say its very hard to gain weight while doing chemo, and I`ve definetly lost a few pounds. I don`t have much of an appetite either which makes it hard to gain my weight back obviously. Well I guess that is it for now. I promise to update more often for you guys. I was getting poked by a few people to update it because I know there are a bunch of you who do check it regularely. Which is awesome by the way. I really do appreciate the support and words of encouragment. That is one of the very many benfits of church, is that your never alone when it comes to struggles, everyone seems to come together and pull for you. It is awesome knowing I have all of you and our Lord behind me helping me through all this. I`m very greatful. Thanks
Till next time, take care
