Good Friday

I did fairly well with my chemo treatment yesterday. I had some fatigue and fever last night, but awoke this morning feeling stronger. I felt good enough to ride my Harley Road King to work! With temps headed toward 96 degrees today, the cool morning air made for a refreshing ride.

Candi got moved home last night thanks to some good friends who were willing to travel to Columbia and help load the trailer, then bring her worldly belongings back to our house in North Augusta. The "moving crew" included Mike & Kaye Merriett, and Melanie Alison from our church; and Candi's friends Ryan & Mark. We are blessed to have such loving & caring friends!

I left work today at noon and met Candi & Vicky for lunch, then came home to rest for the afternoon. To help my white blood cell count recover from yesterdays strong chemo treatment, I had to take another injection of Neulasta this afternoon. The side effects can be pretty bad during the first 24 hours, so I would appreciate your prayers tonight.

I am looking forward to a relaxing holiday weekend! My daughter Melody is coming from Oregon tomorrow night with my youngest grandbaby, Karlee, and they will spend an entire week with us. My parents will join us the middle of next week. I am looking forward to preaching on Sunday as we celebrate our annual God & Country Day! I pray that you have a safe & relaxing holiday weekend. Thanks for your prayers! Be assured that I prayed for each of you today! I am blessed! I love you!
