Isaiah 41:10

Isaiah 41:10.  "fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

Update.  I saw Dr. Parapati today in preparation for my chemo treatment tomorrow.  She was VERY encouraged by my tumor level. It is steadily going down.  Just look at the results:
Dec    16.7
Jan    15.9
Feb    12.7
Mar     8.0
My goal for next time is 3.5 (or lower) Please pray for this result!
As I have shared before.  Even someone without cancer can have a tumor level around a 3.  I hope to get below a 2 and with the Lord's help, I will. 
What can I say?  I am very encouraged and feel that I am seeing the result of answered prayer.  God is so good!  
After this next chemo infusion, Dr. Parapati is ordering another CAT scan and she hopes to give me a break this next month with NO chemo.  That would be wonderful!
Please pray that I continue to respond to chemo and that my side effects are few.  I have had a dramatic loss of appetite after chemo and severe diarrhea, so I ask for your prayers to get me through again. My chemo treatment starts at 1:00pm and lasts for about 5 hours. Thank you for your prayers.  It makes a difficult time bearable to know that I am being lifted up in prayer before the very throne of God.  May He richly bless you as He does me during this time!
