A quick trip to Ohio to visit Mom and Dad, and the relief of a week of Winter Break at school are the reason for no post in some time.  I’m sorry.  I value your interest and concern, so here we go again.

I missed my Velcade injection Monday because of my trip home.  So, yesterday morning I received it.  Because of some out-of-the ordinary skin eruptions on my chest and neck, I asked one of the nurses if they had any advice.  They said, “I will get you in to see Dr. Goldklang as soon as we’re done here.”

Dr. Goldklang did see me shortly.  After some diagnostic questions and a quick stethoscope check of my breathing, he addressed the issue.  Meanwhile, the office manager came in to my room and thanked me for the positive feedback I had given to their COO, Dr. Wendy Lenz.  By the way, the office manager’s niece and nephew are happy students at TCS.  🙂

Dr. G. proceeded to remark how well I was responding to the treatment. On the spot he made an adjustment to reduce my medication intensity.  He even said I was doing so well that I may not need a bone marrow transplant.  To me, that’s big!  (It’s an ordeal)

I was LIFTED!  As I stood in front of the check-out girl, I was flooded with the “knowing” that so many of my friends and loved ones have supported me with prayer.  To me, that’s the big reason I’m doing well.  I am so grateful for each of you who take a little time to mention me to the Father.  He goes to work with the faith and A.S.K.ing we do. [A-ask, S-seek, K-knock] -Matt. 7:7

Please be encouraged by my results, and aim those mighty prayer guns of yours on others who need the Lord’s HEALING POWER.  It’s working!!!
