What a difference a day makes! Yesterday was the end of the chemo drag and I no longer feel like Rip Van Winkle!!!! Hurray! I don't have all my energy back but I am feeling pretty good, thank you Jesus!! Now that I feel good I can look back on these past couple of weeks and be so thankful for my husband. He has been a tremendous help and nurse maid! I have always called myself Suzy Homemaker and now I have a Sammy Homemaker!! He is truly fantastic! The other day, day three of chemo sleep, I was thinking about wet foods cause my mouth was so dry. The thoughts of crackers or pretzels was gagging, my mouth was so dry that they would get caught in my throat. I know I was becoming dehydrated but when you are in this mode, it is very hard to keep drinking. I was thinking of chicken croquettes and chicken gravy. Has anyone ever had them? Meyers and Weaver used to make them and they were delicious as a kid, my favorite meal actually next to meatloaf with brown gravy!! Now the only place to get them is at the diner or making them. My dear husband made them!!!!!!!!! God Bless Him! They were delicious and our kids loved them too!!!! See? God is always with us!! He let me know that He hasn't forgotten about me, in all my self absorbed misery, He is there to comfort me and show me love, via my husband!! Today I don't feel lonely, today is technically no different than yesterday, except I physically feel better and I don't feel alone. Praise God!! It is a beautiful snowy morning and half the house is at school or work and the other half are still sleeping, just like yesterday, and I don't feel alone! What a difference a day makes, thank you Jesus!! You promised to never leave me nor forsake me and every day You show me that You are always here. I might not know it right away but when I take time to reflect back I can see Your work and know that only You could have made all these wonderful things possible. Thank You!!
