Yesterday was a busy day. I went to the clinic in the morning for my IV. In the afternoon I went to the dermatologist. I really dreaded going there as I was not looking forward to getting cut up again. Well the good news is that there is nothing suspicious on my skin. We looked at several spots and things, but they both said everything was normal. The resident doctor who looked me over first is from a small town north of Glenville, WV. where Patti and I and Ken and Mary Louis were for the fourth four wheeling. He was very impressed with the hair on my chest and the way I looked. He basically told us that he knew of the beeswax therapy on the skin and it was showing a lot of success for people. I do not feel that the head of dermatology over at UH felt that way about it. The resident doctor was also very understanding of my decision to quit the interferon. I do not feel that his boss felt that way. Maybe he was busy this time, but he just did not seem as personable and willing to talk.
One lesson all this has taught me is to appreciate the small things. Especially the small accomplishments.
One of my daughters friends from school has cancer and is in need of prayer. She is 32, a mom and a wife and she has thyroid cancer that has spread to her lymph nodes. One of our employees is her uncle. He had asked me about her and where I was going with my treatments. 2 and 2 did not get put together until last night between the girls talking. She lost her father to cancer 6 years ago and I am sure she is pretty frightened about everything. Pray for peace with her and healing. She really could use it now.
