The Road Ahead (2)

It's starting to look like the last few weeks have been a vacation before I get into the real tough parts of my treatment.

The radiation therapy isn't supposed to be too bad; few side effects; an increase of pain at the beginning due to swelling; but overall an improvement afterwards.

The chemo and immuno are another matter. Both of them are supposed to be pretty rough. When I hear that I have to wait for the immunotherapy because there aren't any beds available, I kind of deduce that I'm going to be hospitalized, instead of staying in the comforts of home.

Then there's the uncertainty. I really haven't had much information in the last few weeks, and there is still no clear decision about the immunotherapy. The road ahead is shrouded in mist, and I don't have the map.

As I was thinking about that, the following came to mind:
And when I cannot see I'll trust
For then I know Thou surely must
Be still my all in all.
The only way I'll get through all this is to trust Him.

    I've been reading your blog since Cynthia sent the link a couple of weeks ago. Please know that my prayers are with you in this time of struggle.
