MID WEEK UPDATE

I have been really stoked to hear how many friends look forward to the updates. Believe me, I am blessed every time I do one. Call it therapeutic I guess. The weekend was really pretty good. Not great, but good. I've never watched so much football on T.V. It's new for my girlfriend too. Pray for her sanity. It was really good to talk to my dad on Sunday. He's not a computer person, but I know for sure that my sister, Cathy, put the blog address on his favorites. Hope he gets to it.

Thank you Adolph's for the delicious potato soup. I actually ate some salad too. Oh yeah, I devoured the ice cream. Christine, tell Lauren the brownies were delicious. Thank you sweetheart. I'm excited to hear your worship songs Alexandra. I hope we can all get together soon and worship together. Erik my brother, you can be really proud of your family. You are all a living testimony to Christ.

I thought Mon. would be a better day than it was. For one thing it was really hot and for another I just didn't feel right. I felt OK until after radiation. Maybe it's because my mouth is starting to really go off. What I mean by that is; it's getting pretty burned inside. They promised me that I would feel those effects between week 2 and 3. Right on Dr. Damore. I hate it when the Docs are right. Actually my chemo Dr. gave me some scripts for some killer mouthwash that has lidocaine in it. For now it works pretty good. More modern advances through chemicals. I'm just going to have to get over it. I almost forgot. I'm Captain Chemo.

Today was my third chemo treatment and I actually do feel pretty good. Kat suggested that I go trim some trees in the back yard. And I thought that she was the sensitive one. {this is Kat here and I can't believe he said that!!! I suggested that he re-surface the driveway :o) --please continue to pray for my sweet boyfriend that he is protected from some of the night mare side effects--I love you all and cherish your prayers for Jer and I xoxoxo}

It was good to hear your voice Dale. Thanks for the call. Marshall, I'm serious about the ukulele
lessons. You'll have to do the singing though.

I was reminded today to put on the full armor of God. For some reason, today, standing firm with the belt of truth buckled around my waist was the focus of my thoughts. (Eph. 6:10-18)
I am so thankful for God's Word. Aren't you?

Signing out for now with many many hugs,

Old Jer
