If I've already posted or shared . . . you already know I've lost my mind this semester.
Dad finished his third round of chemo last week. They removed the pump from his port on Thursday. He arrived home from Cincinnati to his home in Indiana. . . climbed on his John Deer with his ROUND UP! He was told he couldn't lift more than 10 pounds. Therefore he couldn't use the weed eater. So, he decided to kill those suckers with Round Up . . . around the yard he went spraying every weed he could find.
The very NEXT day after chemo and after his weed eating expedition he climbed back on the John Deer and mowed the whole yard - an hour's worth of mowing.
Yesterday back to Cincinnati to check blood levels. All look readings look great and they are going to give him another chemo treatment next week. He continues to respond well.
And I say. . . THANK YOU SED260 students who have prayed for my dad (the weeds don't thank you too much). He is ALIVE and doing well. Virgil has his up days and down days. Even during this week which started with a trip to the ER on Monday we are counting our blessings.
As the semester winds down I'll post here and there a sappy message. This one is to say. . . thank you for praying for my family and me. I'm praying for you as you face the next two weeks. Just as my Dad's out mowing his yard . . . you, too will make it through this challenging time!! I am confident that you can do abundantly more than you ask, think or imagine!!
Grateful to be your teacher!
Mrs. White

God is definitely working all around us. That is why spring is my favorite because you can see God paint in the color.
