Keeping it simple

If the treatment cycles one after another are meant to wear down the cancer, it appears to be having a similar impact on Talitha over all.

Two naps today just didn't quite do the job and I'm afraid she's starting to have aches that weren't as noticeable after the last high-dose chemo.

One really positive difference with this round is that Talitha is doing well with the multiply daily baths. (What a relief!)

Talitha took an early nap so I was able to go to church here at the hospital. There's a special spirit during the half-hour services. You come as you are and no one worries what your hair looks like (or if you have hair).

It's all about finding refuge in Christ. Nothing else matters.

There's something really beautiful about keeping it simple and real.
