Char here with a “summer” update…
I’m a little behind (sorry sis!), but the latest news from Sarah-land is that her radiation treatments are OVER!
The end couldn’t come quickly enough, since the process and the treatments made her very (VERY) tired. She had had 32 total treatments over the course 6 weeks. Radiation is not a fun experience, because it involved a lot of sitting VERY still, a lot of uncomfortable positioning, and they have to burn the skin. The techs told Sarah that the burn is how they know the radiation is doing it’s job, so it’s a “good” thing. (Um, not sure Sarah agrees with that!)
Here are a couple of pictures with the gals from the radiology office:
In other news, in case you didn’t notice from the pics, Sarah doesn’t wear her wig much anymore because it is just way too hot. She has been spiking her hair since they came here to visit us in Vegas. It’s a cute look for her, don’t you think? (She’s not sure about it, but it’s better than roasting in a wig!)
And just one more little side-note/editorial from a big sister - bear with me for a second while I get mushy. We’ll plan to keep this blog updated if and when there is “health” news to share, but I for one am hoping that I don’t have to update for a very LONG while!
It’s been a tremendously long and difficult year, but I’m so, so proud of Sarah. She has overcome an incredible hurdle (or ten) in the last year, and my mind still spins when I think of everything she’s had to endure. She is one AMAZING woman, wife, mama, and friend… and God has big plans in store for her. If you haven’t read the testimony/speech she gave at the recent Ladies Day in Roseville, you need to click on over and READ IT now!
And in case you missed it previously, Sarah is GETTING ON with her life and finally working towards getting her scrapbooking business going. You can check out a few of her sample cards HERE and place an order for two (or ten).
God bless you and yours…
