she is brave...

Our hearts are heavy right now, Team Kelly.  We know that the cancer is causing the discomfort in her tummy, but she still hasn't had any relief or rest.  Dr. Savin is referring her to a pain specialist to see if we can get her feeling better.  Her tumor marker has climbed and he recommends getting back on an intravenous chemo.  The treatment will be 2 weeks in a row (only 2 hours in the chemo lab each time) and then a week off.  She will do a CT scan before she starts the chemo...hopefully tomorrow but possibly Thursday.  


Jesus Calling today:
I promise to meet all your needs.  And while you may not realize it, your greatest need is for My Peace.  I am the gardener of your heart, planting seeds of peace.  But the world also tosses in seeds.  These seeds grow into weeds of pride, worry, and selfishness.  If these weeds aren't ripped out quickly, they will choke out all of your peace.  I get rid of those weeds in different ways.  Sometimes, when you sit quietly in prayer, My light shines on the weeds and they shrivel up.  But other times, I use troubles to encourage you to trust Me.  And that trust kills the weeds.  So thank me for troubles. as well as joys.  Because I use them both to make your heart My garden of Peace.

Thank you Team Kelly for helping us rip out the weeds.  You do this with your cards in the mail, gift cards just because, easter lilies you donate in her honor, jewelry adorned with Hope, handmade necklaces of yarn, and so so much more.  Kelly (and all of us) love you deeply.  For you are God's light shining upon us!

Some specific prayer requests for now:
1.  For Kelly to get some relief and rest...she needs this desperately in order to fight
2.  Pray for the decisions she and Jason have to make in treatment options  
3.  Pray for Dr. Savin to gain wisdom from the Ultimate Physician
4.  For Kelly's spirit and for her to be brave in knowing she has all of us praying for her, and a loving God taking care of her
5.  Keep our Hope in Him, and in all that we do...may we bring glory to Him
6.  For jason, will, ben, sam and ella...always


Ps...
Did you know the name "Kelly" means BRAVE?  Funny that she has told us numerous times she never thought she could face anything like this.  I guess God knew better.  She loves like Jesus does and SHE IS BRAVE!
