Emma is Good Medicine!
Today was a day of rest. Yes it was the Lord’s Day but that is not the rest I mean. Today, rather, was a day of rest from chemo. After 4 days of his first Bone Marrow chemo they gave Matthew a day off. And, thank God, he felt as good today as he has felt the last 4 days. What more could you expect or hope for?
Despite not having chemo today Matthew did have some “good medicine”!
Sweet Emma visited today! She brought Matthew a memory book of their first year together which really made Matthew smile!
After they visited and then watched a movie it was time for Emma to head home. Matthew was one happy camper after this dose of Good Medicine!
Tomorrow is Matthew’s final chemo. It is only a single dose, rather than days of treatment, and will complete the wiping out of his bone marrow. We pray that Matthew will be able to handle this dose as well as the last batch. Then, after at least 24 hours, he will receive his own Stem Cells back and begin rebuilding his bone marrow.
Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts, love and support!
