In talking with Kim this morning - she is so grateful for each of you and your prayers in her behalf. She has been blessed since her chemo on Monday so that her breathing has been better and she has not had to have her oxygen at all this week. She says that it is hard to describe exactly how the treatment has made her feel - but she said she is getting a little stronger each day.
Knowing Kim as we do - we know that it is a little strange for her not to have an appetite - but her sweet mother, Fern, keeps the small meals and snacks close by for frequent nourishment. Kim did say - that in the middle of the night - she was craving an egg salad sandwich - so that was on the menu today for sure.
Kim was even planning a little outing today - just to get out of the house. Maybe just a trip around the Valley.
Thanks to each of you for your support, and your loving comments on the blog. Kim finds comfort and strength from all of the thoughtful notes of encouragement.
