7 p.m. ….

Thanks for checking in!!

JoAnna picked up Irene after a three hour dialysis treatment this morning.  Irene rested this afternoon and later she, Jocelyn, and JoAnna prepared a wonderful shrimp soup for dinner.  Irene LOVES having her girls at home!!!!  It was a nice, relaxing way to ease into the weekend!!! The four of us also enjoyed an intimate birthday celebration for Irene.

Irene’s nausea also subsided somewhat so she was able to enjoy the sunny day and SLOWLY walk around and water some of the garden plants outside.

Irene’s very dark skin color (from the chemo), especially on her arms and legs, is beginning to “flake” like that of dandruff.  We see hopeful signs that her olive complexion may be returning ….

We also remain hopeful that the kidneys will someday “wake up”, but there is no real indication at this point.  This remains a very substantial prayer request.

In the meantime, we rejoice in God’s presence manifested in our lives.  For we “…. have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring Word of God.” 1 Peter 1:23
