Chemo: Round 10!!!

Chemo Round 10

Hey y’all! We hit double digits!! I’m so happy to have completed my tenth round of chemotherapy and to only have two more left to go.

Trusting the Lord and Finding Joy in the Pain

I’m not going to lie, this week has been super hard on me. All my friends are back at college and are beginning the school year which is so exciting. But it’s been so hard to be back at home, wishing I was there. All the meetings, practices, and hangouts that I’m missing makes me really sad. I feel like I’m missing out on so much which is such a hard pill to swallow. I keep wrestling with the Lord wondering why I have to go through this but he continues to remind me of his truth.

"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us". Romans 8:18

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord". Jeremiah 17:7

I know that the pain I’m feeling won’t compare to the joy that is coming. I know that I just need to continue to put my trust in the Lord and September 11th will come and I will be reunited with my friends. I can’t wait to go get ice cream with my friends and just hangout with them all again. I’ve learned how special these moments truly are and I will never take them for granted. Each day is a gift, not a guarantee, and we should always be grateful for each day the Lord blesses us with.

Two left chemos, let’s do this thing!!!

There’s always a reason to smile 😊
