Continued Journey
Hello Dear Ones,
The other day a dear friend sent me an e-mail of encourgement. She ended it with this reminder:
"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty & well perserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming... "WOW! WHAT A RIDE!"
I'm sure that once I arrive at the gravesite this is really what I will be proclaiming! I just hope & pray that the Lord Jesus will be saying..."WELL DONE MY GOOD & FAITHFUL SERVANT".
I say all of this to say, my tests today showed that the cancer is back. This time in the bones in various places. So we are back to the journey again of "fighting cancer with PRAYER" (WHAT BETTER WAY).
I really felt so bad for my family. Roosevelt is just " fit to be tired" ( he is so down). Please pray for him.
The kid's are overwhelmed, but praying.
My doctor even had a rough time today with the not so good report.
As of today I am on Vicadon every six hrs. and advil in between to control the pain. Friday there will be more testing. I will give you an update after that. However, remember we are going out to have fun with friends on Friday night, and dessert & coffee. I am really looking forward to that.
So let's remember! even though it may seem like Midnight! Let's just keep Praising the Lord Jesus for He is Worthy to be Praised.
Loving Each of You,
Oraletta " Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony. (Ps. 6:2)

Oraletta, your continuing bright testimony in the complex world of
cancer makes my heart lighter and
inspires me to consider how lucky
I've been so far. Jesus has his
prayer list at the ready, as do we. Our ultimate outcome is in
his hands; we all know this, but
living with unknown aspects of
cancer can be daunting. I have yet to face any huge obstacle. I pray for God's grace to help me
face it with faith and dignity.
