Keeping On

"Keep going." That's my current mantra. It seems to be the response I give most people when they ask how we're doing. We're keeping on. I think that will be the way things are for a while now. Leslie was home again today, in bed. She had more strength early in the day and then a rough evening. Her mom came over to help her when the kids got home and my boss has been very flexible (and encouraging) to let me go when I need to. I left a little bit early to come home and take over from Becky.

I got to talk with a good friend of mine tonight, James. His wife, Becky, had thyroid cancer a couple of years back. In July she had to go through another round of radiation which made her really sick. Since then they've found a mass on her liver and they are waiting to find out more about it. Please keep them in your prayers. It was a real encouragement to me to talk with someone who knows what I'm going through on my end. They have young kids as well and James knows what it's like to carry an extra load while struggling watching his wife suffer.
