September 26

It is amazing to me the power of prayer! Seth had a horrible beginning to the week he was like a different kid at the end. His stomach is better and he is starting to eat (like a bird but at least he is eating something). He still needs to gain weight by his next doctors appointment which is Tuesday so you can be praying for that. Seth had his chemo day yesterday and all went well. So far he has not experienced most of the side effects ,from the chemo, that they said he would experience. Such as tingling in his fingers, jaw pain, leg pain, and problems with his feet. We know God is hearing everyone's prayers. God gave us all the physical and mental strength to finish out this week. And now we are happy to have the weekend off. Seth has 10 more radiation session to go!!! On the last day he will be able to ring the "bell". When ever anyone finishes their radiation session they ring the bell. It is an emotional sight knowing the person has finished a part of his or her journey and made it through. So we look forward to the day our Seth will ring the bell and declare he made it through this leg of the journey! I posted a picture of Seth watching Saturday morning cartoons. That has always been his favorite t.v. time and this is the first Saturday since the surgery in July that I found him watching them. He must be feeling better!! Once again thank you so much for praying. It amazes me to know that when we post things on his blog people start praying and we have seen instant results because of all your prayers!
