Day Three of Round One



Today is Day Three of round one! I have been battling technical problems so I have had to do all three posts today. Billy has his little buddy with him today. This has made both of my boys very happy! He is able to lay here in his bed and get his chemo while cuddling with AJ. What a blessing! He is still feeling well despite sleep deprivation. We are so thankful God is keeping him well during his chemo. We know it could be a lot worse. It is still very difficult for me to watch them hang those bags of chemo and hook them into his port. The logical side of me cringes at the thought of poison being pumped through his veins, but we have to look at it as God using even something so toxic as chemo to heal Billy. I have to remind myself that God knows Billy's body better than anyone and can protect him from the dangers of chemo while allowing it to kill the cancer. Billy remains in good spirits and praises our God for everything, even this vey disease that has us here.
