Update on Mom: Prayer Request

My mom had scans last week and learned the results yesterday. The spot on her liver has grown again. Thankfully, there are no new spots. But, this still indicates that the chemo is no longer effective. She had been getting progressively more tired over the past several weeks and thought it might have been that the chemo was now affecting her red blood cell counts, but those are fine. Instead, they are thinking it is the cumulative effect of the chemo itself. Anyway, instead of having chemo yesterday as scheduled, they are waiting until the middle of next week. This will give her body a little bit of a break as well as give time to weigh options and make decisions regarding what chemotherapy to try next. Please pray for wisdom for my parents and the oncologist in the decision process. Please also pray for strength and return of energy for my mom as well as healing for her if it be the Lord’s will. In all, God is sovereign and good!
