My Sister-in-Law's Beginning

I want to take a moment and ask for your prayers for my sister-in-law, Jan. She is beginning her chemotherapy treatments today (Wednesday, which I hope is correct, because I thought it was Thursday, after it was originally supposed to be last Friday. But, hey, who's keeping track?)

Anyway, 5...FIVE...(that's one, two, tree, bour, BIVE! in my two-year old's language)HOURS of treatment to start with. Can she read? Watch TV? What does one do...what will I do, during 5 hours of treatment? (When I find out, I will let you know).

One of the most difficult aspects of this is the upcoming hair loss. Jan is beautiful. She has beautiful, Texas-sized hair (her words, not mine.) She will be beautiful, hair or no hair. But, it's hard. Not looking forward to it myself.

Please pray...Our God is so powerful, I know He can sustain her and even help her smile, probably even sing (she has a beautiful voice.) Most of all, let's pray that this treatment hits her cancer hard and strong.
