Prayers for Audrey

We appreciated a week off of chemo last week! Audrey has been tolerating it all very well, but the medicine does tend to upset her belly, so it is nice for her to have that break. Overall we are thankful Audrey has been able to continue to do things she normally would. She has been going to school regularly and taking ballet 🩰 with her younger sister. It has been very sweet to see them bond together. Audrey stays very active and often asks to take family walks. We are thankful for her ongoing energy. Audrey had a chemo infusion this morning. We had been praying over her lab work and everything looked good today! Praise God for these answered prayers. In addition, Audrey had a follow up with her ENT surgeon to check on the healing process from her surgery several months ago and he said everything looks very good!  We know God is always on the move. He works all things for the good for those who love Him (Romans 2:28). We continue to trust God's plans for Audrey and our family....

Audrey finished up another day of chemo this morning - afternoon. She woke up with her belly feeling a little upset, but she continues to display strength and courage. She likes to talk more about what's going on. She has a deeper understanding of her medical needs.  Audrey will have the next Monday off chemo. She will get labs this Wednesday. Her ophthalmology appointment has been scheduled for April 7th. We are hopeful that with this appointment we will have more clarity about removing the cataract and hopefully getting her eye less blurry and more comfortable for her. The goal of this appointment will be to get a good look at what is going on. This past Sunday at church, Andrew was able to share our testimony throughout this journey. When you sum it up in a couple of minutes, it gives you a good reflection of God's comfort and love through all of this. We understand that this is our trial right now, but there are many other people going through other trials, they are just di...

We have been home for over a week now and it has been such a gift. The kids were quick to get back into a routine and we enjoyed the beautiful weather this past weekend. Much to be thankful for. Audrey started another round of chemotherapy today. With that said, we have started to discuss what chemotherapy will look like over the next year. With Audrey's relapse, we are now at a point where we just take things day by day and continue to pray for guidance and wisdom for what is best for Audrey. Right now we are just seeing how each cycle plays out which is Mondays, 2 weeks on, one week off, each month. That will help us determine what Audrey is able to tolerate while still being able to do what she loves and enjoys. We don't know what the future holds for Audrey and our prayer continues to be for complete healing and that Audrey would ultimately be cancer free. We don't know what the Lord's response is at this point, but we trust in his plans for Audrey and our family. O...
