Thanks again for all your outpouring of love and encouragement to Beth
& Dave at this time. Please remember to send emails and calls to Dave
as well as Beth and keep him and the kids in your thots & prayers
daily, too. He's been so strong for so long he makes it look easy when
I know it's definitely not an easy thing for him to deal with.

We rejoice in knowing that even when we don't know what to expect in
this healing process we can rest in the knowledge that God is in
control of it all and is guiding us thru every action and reaction
necessary to see it thru to it's successful completion.

Amen - thank you, Heavenly Father!
Have a great day everyone and pass this on!

Lyn

Beth has now completed 1 of 2 steps in preparing her to receive the
transplant cells. Strong Chemotherapy designed to completely disable
her own immune system. This is so her own body's defences do not
attack the new transplant cells.

step 2 is coming which is heavy radiation, to destroy the existing
bone marrow, making way for the new cells.

These are difficult days for her. she is already quite sick from
this treatment and by now in an isolation area. But she is not alone.

"Rom8:26-27 And in the same way, the Holy Spirit helps us in our
weakness and time of distress. For we don't even know what we ought to
pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes and he prays for us, with
groanings that words cannot express. And the Father, who searches our
hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for
the saints in harmony with God's own will."

Remember, God works in EVERYTHING!, for good!

Blessings,

Larry
