1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,

4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,

5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,

8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Following a good Monday of consultation at UCSF, Irene experienced a rough night.  The nausea “manifested” itself in the early morning hours and she was uncomfortable through most of the hours of darkness.  After resting most of today her diminished energy began to return and she was able to meander through some productive activities.  Her congestion and cough continues to linger.  I am amazed at the way that she patiently endures it all.

There is a time for everything …. we hope and pray that the sustained season of nausea and its accompanying side effects will be done and over with …. forever!!
