    Lord, we are claiming Thursday as a Day of Victory for Jane and Genia.  We are claiming that they will wake to that day with a peace knowing you will be right there alongside them each step of the way.  You are an awesome God; Oh, so awesome.  I just thank you for being You and all that comes our way because of that.

    Jane, Genia - blessings coming your way.

    I have to go in to see the Dr. on Tuesday.  That's the earliest I could get in because he is taking over both the previous Drs,  patients.....they both moved away.  So I guess I deal with the leg pain until then.  They told me they would let me know tomorrow if he wanted me to go off the Tamoxifen until I see him.  It's a catch 22.....I have to take the drug because of my ER+ status.......but I can't handle this leg pain.  It hurts..........

    Thanks for the prayers Debbie........hugsssss

    Cause me to here Your loving kindness in the morning,

    For You do I trust;

    Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,

    For I lift up my soul to You. Psalm 143:8 NKJV

    Lord, your children need your special touch upon them.  They are being attacked and need to feel your presence.  We know that they did the same to you dear Jesus and remembering that does make our journey easier to travel.  Help them Lord to focus on you and not give up the hope that surpasses all understanding.  Let them know that you are there with them each and every step of the way.  It is a difficult journey my Father in Heaven but with you at the helm of this ship the way will be made smoother.

    Lord, be with spar and hollyann and let them not give up but strengthen them to continue doing your will.  You did not promise us it would be easy but we do lean on your promises that the rewards will be worth the trials.

    I lift up all my sisters here to you, those with faith and those without.  We are all your children Lord and you have said that you don't want any to be lost.  I pray that does come to pass before you return for your church.

    In Jesus name, Amen.

    When faced with a mountain,

    I will not quit!

    I will keep on striving

    until I climb over,

    find a pass through,

    tunnel underneath,

    or simply stay and

    turn the mountain into a gold mine,

    with God's help!

    Hollyann - I'm not on Arimidex, but it has happened a lot since chemo....a whole lot.  Someone said the part about not remembering words is called aphagia.  Sometimes I can't find the word I am thinking of (ever try to describe coconut to someone?)  Sometimes, I put the wrong word in.  Sometimes I combine 2 words.  Then, there are the times when I totally forget.  I was going to the mall with my daughter a couple of weeks ago and totally forgot how to get there....scary.  I've been going to this mall for 25 years! Of course, it could be old age, but I'm hoping the chemo SEs will wear off, old age doesn't
