Well, we made it through the next two days of treatments!! We are 1/3 of the way through the cycles. I go into for a shot and then we can bring in the New Year. So far so good. My two great sisters took me down and stayed with me the last two days. It was fun. We always take some thing to do and then we never quit talking. I have about decided to leave the bag at home, it is better to talk.

The staff is wonderful at the clinic and I am enjoying working with them. They are so kind and gentle, but positive and happy. I continue to learn a great deal. As Kelly and I were driving to my sisters yesterday we read in Mosiah these words “that he remembereth, every creature he creating.” I know that he knows me. My testimony of the healing power of the atonement, not just physically, but spiritually, has been strength because He knows me. As President James Fauset asked “how many precious drops of blood were spilled for me?” The people that have been sent to help strength our family during this period of time have lifted, given us hope, and loved us were sent because of their love of the Lord and of his children.

I have just a little hair left on the top of my head. Kelly has decided to call it angel hair because it is hardly visible, but I still have some. Other than being fatigued and a little swollen I can’t complain.

Everyone have a great New Year!! I am celebrating New York time-so I will be in bed by 10:00, because I do turn into a pumpkin about then. Love to all!
