And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
2 Corinthians 12:9

#HealingForHaylie-Post 71

Haylie update - Nov 20

So thankful! Haylie just finished her last chemo treatment in this phase of treatment! Yay! We will now get a 2 week break!!! Hallelujah!

Today’s treatment took a lot longer than we expected but all went well. Since it is thanksgiving break, both Michael and Brennen got to go with us. Our appointment was at 10:15 this morning so our plan was to get her chemo quick and head to lunch. So much for our plan...we left after 3:00 😬. We were all a bit hungry so we headed to Olive Garden to celebrate, her choice again. Unfortunately, Olive Garden had to throw out all their salads due to the E Coli outbreak, so she didn’t get her salad but she did get chicken Parmesan, soup and breadsticks. Boy, this girl does love her salads. 😂

Tonight has been pretty rough. She had her largest dose of methotrexate yet today and her stomach is in major pain. She ran a low grade fever for a while which made me very nervous, but it has finally gone back down to normal and I rejoice that we will not be having to make an emergency trip to the hospital. We are praying that her tummy feels better tomorrow.

She will begin the next phase, delayed intensification the first week of Dec. This next phase will be pretty intense so we are going to just celebrate the end of this phase and the progress she has made thus far. We are going to have as much fun as we can the next 2 weeks and be thankful for all of our blessings.
