Starting Chemo!


Well, I'm sitting in the chair at the treatment center waiting to get hooked up. I will get my first treatment of Taxol here and starting taking my Sutent pills today also. My "hope angels" were here already and delivered me a really neat present. Thanks so much girls I love my present and I really appreciate you thinking of me today!!! Hopefully I tolerate these meds well! Here's our new picture of the Huxtables and us. Will let everyone know how treatment went! Love, Heather.

You are amazing!! After you called tonight I got to thinking about how up beat and strong you sound and ARE and I think why can't I be more like that! I too am so proud to have you as a friend and also want to remind you we are all here to help you through this in whatever way that may be!!! So keep your spirits up and we'll keep the prayers coming.

Hi Heather! Andrew and I just wanted to let you know that we are praying for you everyday. You are such a great lady! We had so much fun doing our wedding pictures. You and Angie are both great! Stay tough!

Erin and Andrew

The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint (Isaiah 40:31)

Sending you oodles of love and prayers from Adams Central country! I've followed your blog since the start. What a wonderfully strong woman you are. We have missed your family so since we left Wood River, and even though we haven't kept in touch, you've always kept a warm place our hearts. Fight, fight, fight, and know that we are thinking of you every step of the way.
Love,
Tim, Andrea, Madison & Elli Marker

Hi Heather

It was great seeing you, Matt and the kids this weekend. Maybe next time we can have some "sister" time together!

I pray you and Matt are able to see God throughout this entire journey and remember He has you in the palm of His hand!

Love you much
Kristen
