How am I feeling?

Well I thought I would write about how I am doing at this point. First I would like to say that Dave is doing OK. He has completed 7 of 35 radiation treatments and 1 of 3 chemo. treatments. He goes to his radiation treatments by himself, except on Mondays, I go with him cause he meets with the doc. He also has to have his blood drawn weekly. He still has a good appetite although he says food is beginning to taste funny. His hearing is getting weird also, different sounds are louder and a bit annoying. There are days that he feels out of sorts, not himself. I can tell because he is even more quieter than usual. His spirits are good and hopefully they will stay like that.

Now about me, I am doin! I try to keep things as normal as I can, kids, house etc.... I have my moments of sadness and happiness. I try to keep a smile on my face so that I can see one on Daves. There are times I look at my husband and see the man without cancer and wonder why him Lord? He is such a good man. I should not question his plan for him or our lives together. I have come to accept this and pray daily that he will heal my husband and give him strength to get through this. I also ask for strength to handle all that has been put on my plate.

I contacted Job & Family Services this past week to see if we qualify for any programs (food stamps, medicaid). We do not, even with Daves pay being cut in half while on short term disability. I have not said anything to him as he does not need to worry anymore than he is. He discovered that our roof is leaking again over our enclosed front porch. We had to have our living room redone 2 years ago, because of this. He has a bucket in the space above the porch trying to keep the living room dry. I am going to have to contact other agencies to see what they help with. We are in need of a new roof, so that is something else I have to look into. Oh boy! Thanks for listening, and God bless each and everyone of you. We love you all.
