What have I been up to lately?

Answer - feeling the end of needles and being stretched and pulled in all sorts of directions! Now if that doesn't give you motivation to get up in the morning I don't know what will. =) I've been having problems with my hip and leg for a while now but it came to a climax over a week ago when I found myself lying on the floor in more than just a little bit of pain and having to call someone to come and help me get back up. Very thankful for cell phones! Relief is slowly coming through different treatments - physio, electro therapy, magnetic therapy, ultrasound therapy and let's not forget those injections. =) Many of you have been praying and for that I am very thankful. Looking forward to the day when I get the OK to go for a walk!! I have been encouraged over and over again of God's faithfulness. A friend reminded me of this promise and I'll leave it with you to ponder as well "My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and portion forever" Psalm 73:26

Just over a year ago my 3 year old nephew, Trevor, was diagnosed with a form of cancer called Rhabdomyosarcoma. It has been a long journey for this little guy but through the radiation and chemo treatments, the smile and twinkle in his eyes remain. There will be more scans that Trevor will have to have done in the future but up until this point the doctors are pleased with his progress. Thank you to all who prayed for him and my family during this time. My brother sent me this photo last week and so I thought I would share it with all of you! Both are pretty cute if you ask me but I might be a bit biased. =)
