Day # -2 - Chemo Day 2

Yesterday was a pretty good day. Jim started his Chemo. Today is the last one. Yea! The affects of Chemo usually do not come right away like Radiation. So, I am expecting that in a few days his blood counts will drop more and he probably won't feel so good. But, today is pretty good. We have been laying in his bed doing a cross-word puzzle. Evan will start harvesting his Stem Cells tomorrow. He will have to come in early tomorrow morning to get an IV line placed. I am not sure what kind. So, he will be hooked up to a machine alot of the day. The machine separates the stem cells from his regular blood cells. Jim told Evan he will be in to see him tomorrow.

The primary kids from our church each made a card for Jim. It was really fun bringing him the box of cards today. We put them up on one of his walls. Here are some Words of Wisdom from the mouth of Babes.

"It helps to get a hobby when you are sick."

"I am sorry you are in the Hospital. My Grandpa went there and he died. Hope that doesn't happen to you."

"Bro Sproul pray to get better. We all do. You just have to have faith."

"Here are some of my hobbies you can do like "relacks", "wotch" tv or play a game.

"Brother Sproul you probably should think of fun things to do to be better like racing, playing with your kids, playing football, soccer and doing fun things at the Circus."

"Heavenly Father is watching over you. Jesus will protect you.

Today I THANKFUL FOR the innocence, faith and love of PRIMARY CHILDREN.
