- Not feeling very good
- Today's the day my counts tank
- I have to get up and dressed and head to the hospital for a blood draw
- Don't feel like going
- Received a major gift over the weekend- an adjustable hospital-type bed
- Thank you so much, Mary & Matt. Be watching your mail...
- Yes, a hospital bed means that I'm very sick. I am very sick.
- I'm praying that I have the strength and energy to go to WDW in the fall
- Right now, it doesn't feel like I'll be able to
- It's probably the chemo that's making me feel this way
- But I'm really depressed and worn down
- No job leads for Paul
- Not sure how much longer we can hang on without one
- I've cut back to 30 hours at work
- MIL & FIL aren't answering their cell phones.
- They're supposedly leaving tomorrow with the girls
- I don't want my girls that far away from me, but they deserve a break
- Can't wait for my parents to be "back"
- Even though we've talked every day, I wish they were closer, too.
- Paul and I did a lot of crying this morning
- Keep praying...

((Evie)) I wish there was something I could do. I am praying. Lean on your friends and family
Awwww. ((((Ev and Paulie))) I'm so sorry things are beyond crappy. I'm praying for you guys daily.
(((Evie))) You have my prayers, always.
Evie, is this where we're supposed to remind you to take your anxiety meds? You asked us to do that, but I'm not sure if this is one of those times. You sound so down, so resigned. I am praying right now that you feel God's healing hand, that you feel His peace.
We have days like this too, and they are always during the sick, low count days after chemo. It's incredibly depressing and sad, but when you feel better, when you bounce back, your spirits should lift too. I wish I could do something to help. I hate cancer.
Honey pie, you're always in my prayers and in my heart. I can be to you in 8 hours if needed. I love you!
(((Evie))) I hope this is just a small snag and you'll be feeling better soon!
Evie, let your friends help. Call us, let us be there for you like you have been there for us. Turn about is fair play.
(((hugs))) love to you evie....you always in my prayers..and my hubby prays for you too...love and prayers your way...
Holding you in my heart my friend.
Praying hard from here, for you, my friend. You are in our thoughts and hearts daily.
Much love to you!
{{Hugs}} I pray for you and your family daily, Evie. I'm sorry you're so sad and I hope that tomorrow is a better day for you.
My prayer for you today
"God of our life, there are days when the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and weigh us down; when the road seems dreary and endless, the skies grey and threatening; when our lives have no music in them, and our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage. Flood the path with light, run our eyes to where the skies are full of promise; tune our hearts to brave music; give us the sense of comradeship with heroes and saints of every age; and so quicken our spirits that we may be able to encourage the souls of all who journey with us on the road of life, to Your honour and glory." (St. Augustine)
You are in my thoughts and heart every day. I hope you can take comfort in the love and friendship you have surrounding you. I wish I could ease the burden of the low days for you. (((Evie)))
Praying girlie!!
Oh Evie, I hope and pray that you will soon rise from this down time. You are a dear child of the Savior and if a sparrow can't fall without His care, then surely He is with you now. Even if the darkness seems so deep, surely the night is light to Him.
Dear Jesus, please comfort and encourage our precious sister and brother, Evie and Paul. And, dear Lord, they really need some tangible sources of encouragement - physical recovery, job leads for Paul (and a job!). We don't and can't order You around, Lord, but we do ask on the basis of your tender mercies that you will reach down in your power, might, wisdom and love and touch your children in a special way. Lots of tears are shed for this family. Please hear those cries and intervene. Please raise Evie up. Amen
((((Evie))))) praying and praying. I hope that you feel God's healing touch . You are never far from my thoughts.
