Round 5 Starts Tomorrow

Round 5 starts tomorrow. We are both pretty nervous. Round 4 turned out the be the lowest, and the highest, point in chemo so far. Kent had not had so much pain and sickness before. It broke my heart. We almost ended up in the ER. Then in answer to our prayers he started doing much better. He had 3 really good days this time, which was a nice break before feeling sick again. We are so grateful for the tender mercies the Lord is showing us right now. We are grateful for this opportunity to learn to rely more on the grace of the Lord than on our own abilities. It is turning into a great blessing for us, although it isn't the easiest.

"Don't assume that happiness is the absence of a load. The unique burdens in each of our lives help us rely upon the merits, mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah." - Elder Bednar #LDSconf #ElderBednar

Our little ray of sunshine, Kennedy, has been especially tender with Kent this last week. I think he knows something is going on, and he is taking good care of his daddy. Every morning he likes to crawl over to Kent and pat his cheek, just checking that he is ok. He gives a kiss then is off to play. :) We know that the Lord blessed us with our little angel to help us get through this crazy time. He really is our sunshine.
