Day Eight

So the theme for me recently has been fatigue. My apologies for not posting daily. However, the fatigue has been significant and the blog has taken a backseat.

Overall, I am doing extremely well. I cannot speak enough of God’s blessings in my treatment and, now, recovery phase. My MD is very pleased with my progress and encourages me to endure. He indicates that the next seven days may well be the toughest of the recovery. So, keep those prayers going. They have been working.

Other that the expected fatigue, I have a touch of mucositis that can get significantly worse. It essentially manifests as sores in the mouth and throat as the body replaces the mucus membranes damages in the radiation. For now, I have it in my throat which feels like a really bad sore throat making it difficult to swallow.

With that said, I am still doing well. My spirit is strong. It has been beat up. But, I’m still standing with God’s grace. Much love to you all!
