Preparing For 8th Chemo Treatment

My pre-chemo blood test will be on the 4th August and my next chemo treatment (8th) will be on the 7th (Monday) August.

Sunrise at 7:05am.

Thank God for His faithfulness and thank you to all who have been carrying me in your prayers.

  2. The bougainvillea looks beautiful, and I do love that colour Nancy.
    Well that is a big grasshopper, never seen one so large!
    Your veins in the hand must be a bit sore but you soldier on, you are very brave.
    So the treatment you have to buy, was wondering is it expensive!
    Praying for you to recover completely...good luck and take care.

  16. If I am not wrong, I think as a government pensioner you can claim for the add on chemo drug and also whatever cost you have to pay.Try applying for it.

  32. Wow that is something that the hospital doesn't supply the chemo, hope it isn't hard to get. I hate needles in my hand they always have trouble with them, my veins are not so good. You do continue to be in my prayers daily.
