Farm girl hugs alissa
everyone thanks for the prayers. just wanted to let everyone know that my sister's cancer has decressed by 12%, it is good news but yet not what she expected. she wanted it to be gone. but we thank God for what He has done so far. She is doing another type of treatment this time, it is only 1 day every 3 weeks for a total of 4 treatments. the doctors told her that this treatment will stay in her body for 7 years after treatments. It is also very hard on her liver and kidneys, she also has heart problems which she will be watched real close with this treatment. I will update when there is more to tell you all. Your prayers are appriecatd. thanks alissa
just heard and they are letting my sister start her chemo on the 13th of May. I am leaving the 17th to go stay with her again, for a few days or a week just depends on how she is doing. This will be her last treatment, if the cancer is still there but not growing they are going to take it out. All your prayers are so appreiciated, you will never know just how much it means. This is a journey I wish no one had to take. If I could hug you all I would. thanks for being such a great group of ladies... Blessings and farm girl hugs coming your way... alissa
sorry I have not updated since I seen her last week. I got home and messedd up my hand, tore some leigiments in my wrist, sprang the wrist joints. so they put me in a fiberglass splint and it is hard to do anything. but for the update on my sister. they had found 2 spots on her thyroid went in an they took a biopsy. she got the results on monday, thank God it came back negative for cancer... she is doing good, had a few bad days this week but is doing better now. she is trying to get them to let her take her last treatment after mothers day. they also told her that if everything stays the same they will remove the spot on her lung after the this last treament. will update after the last treatment... thanks for all the prayers. have a good weekend farm girl hugs and blessing alissa
My sister went for her scans and it was not real good. The cancer in her lung did not get bigger or smaller just stayed the same. I am going to go stay with her agian for a week. she has 2 more rounds of chemo one this week and then one in 20 days. so she has asked that we come down and take care of her after chemo as it is hard for her to get around. I would like to ask that you would also pray for her husband as he is having a hard time and is taking it out on her. smoking around her which he was not doing this before. I know that as a caretaker it is hard, took care of my FIL for almost 6 years. So I know that there are times when you just want to walk away from everything. so please pray for him. I thank you all for the prayers and kind words. this is very hard for me, I would like for you to pray for me as I help take care of her this week coming. She will be down for about 2 - 3 days. It is hard to see a loved suffer so please say a little pray for us. I will update again when I return to let you know how she is doing.
God Bless you all
Farm Girl Hugs coming your way

Hi everyone I am back from staying with my sister. she will go on the 15th of april to do her scans to see if the chemo is working. if it is then round 3 of chemo will start, if not then she is done with treatments. when I left she was cutting her hair short because it was coming out by the handfulls. it was very upsetting for her so I told her to cut it short so it does not look like so much is falling out. please pray that she will have good reports when she goes to MD Anderson on the 15th for her scans. thank you for your prayers and kind words. Bless you all
farm girl hugs alissa
Hi everyone I am sitting here with my sister this is her lastday of chemo. Please say a prayer for her. She is having a bad day, she was fixing her hair when a handful ckme out and she started to cry. Broke my heart to see her cry, her hubby is going to have a wig made for her and my sister sil is going to donate her hair for the wig. I am so glad she has great inlaws. Prayer for her that she will not hurt this weekend like she did withher last treatment. I will post more when i get home my kindle is dying & i forgot my charger. Farm girl hugs alissa. Thanks to everyone for your prayers.

| Hi everyone thank you all so much for the prayers, my sister called our mom this morning an talked a little. told mom that the doctors told her she had 2yrs. I told mom there is no expiration date on our toes, the only one who knows that is the good Lord Himself. I know that there is healing power in prayer. I apprecated all the prayers more than you will ever know. Mom is upset as she is going through cancer with her husband and wants to be with my sisiter, but can't make it yet. again thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the prayers. Farm Girl Hugs alissa |

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister and am sending prayers her way. No matter what timeline the dr. gives, there is always hope. When my mom got breast cancer, she was told she only had a 50% chance of making it 3 years. That was 17 years ago! Then when it returned, she was told she had 18 months. That was 4 years ago and she's still going strong!
There's so many treatments and medications these days. Having a positive attitude helps too, so do all you can to keep her spirits up. Please keep us posted on how things are going. {hugs}

Alissa,
I too missed this post, usually look for these requests under Hogs/Quiches/Prayers.
I am praying for your sister and your entire family, as you journey through this.
It is amazing what they can do know adays, with removing a lung etc.
Try and stay positive and keep the faith, even though at times it may seem unbearable. We are here for you, to listen and pray.
Hugs,
~Laurie

I want to thank you all for your prayers. The doctors give no hope for her cancer, but she will take chemo for 2 months to see what happens. All in all she is doing good, that old devil really plays hard with her mind and she said she rebuke him daily. Mom and I will be going to see her soon. I hope to have a journal that I am making finished for her. I am going to call it Take a Walk with me, it will pictures of us kids when we where little. I will post pictures when I get it finished. I figure it will take a while to get it all together . went to my dad's last night to get some more pictures. I will keep updating as I find out what is going on with her. She lives in texas an calls mom about every 2 weeks or so..(mom and I live in Oklahoma again thank you for all the kind words and prayers..
BLessings and Farm Girl hugs alissa
