Dear friends, It's Carol again! Thank you for your kind prayer and encouragement. The side effects of the chemotherapy are like a cycle. I'm kind of tired in the first week, but I've been well recovered since the 2nd week. In addition to the bible, I read many books like detective novels. My daily life is simple and easy. Last Saturday, I went to the hospital to have the regular blood test. The number of my white blood cells dropped down to 2800. It must be over 3000 for thenext chemotherapy. So I must keep eating, sleeping, and exercising hard. Hopefully my body can create enough white blood cells before my next chemotherapy, which is assumed to be on 19th May.
And recently I'm reading Matthew. I'm very touched by three passages: 8:24-26, 10:28-32, and 6:24-27. When I was in the UK, I thought I was ready to take my cross and follow Him. However, I was totally shocked and frightened when I was diagnosed with cancer. Such a heavy crossis against all expectations. I spent many sleepless nights worrying about the future. The passages in Matthew recall my little faith. Yes, God loves me. He will save me from the waves even though I'm as weak as Peter. He will treasure me even though I'm as nothing as a sparrow. It's meaningless to worry about life. Everything under the sun is under His will and grace. So yes, I'm ready to take my cross and follow Him.
If I can do any prayer for you, please feel free to let me know.
Much love,
Carol x
