Yeah, it's Friday. My last treatment for this week! We didn't get our treatment until 11:30 today instead of 7:30. It took my stomach awhile longer to settle today than usual. But, I was able to enjoy a RazzMaTazz Jamba Juice which was delicious!! I'm looking forward to the weekend with no treaments and catching up on some well needed rest. Continue your prayers because that is where I gather my strength. I love you all!

Today I had my third radiation treatment. Unfortunately, I have not been able to hold down any food for the past couple of days because the area being radiated is effecting my digestive tract, causing me to be extremely weak. I continue to treasure your prayers and enjoy reading your comments. Thank you for your care and concern.

I was anxious to get my radiation treatment and received the first of 10 today. I was hoping it would be more relief than it actually was but the nausea and vomiting did not make for a wonderful day. I am looking forward to tomorrow when I will have my second radiation treatment and my first infusion of zometa to help get the calcium back in my bones and hopefully more relief from the pain tomorrow.

Thank you for all of your prayers and please continue. I love you all. Jana

My Story

Hello all of my wonderful, caring friends and family. This is just to keep you updated on my situation. After a month of some extreme back pains involving chiropractors, doctors, etc. I finally gave in and went to the Emergency Room at the hospital. From there I was instructed to obtain some tests which have led to a diagnosis of cancer in various areas of my bones and multiple tumors in my liver. We are awaiting a date for a biopsy of my liver and have an appointment with the radiologist Tues, Feb. 24th, to determine radiation treatments to the bones to alleviate the pain.

I want to thank each one of you for your concern and I truly appreciate the calls and all of your expressions of kindness. The Lord got me through this once before and will faithfully get me through this again. I love you all and will keep you updated. Jana
