About me

Introduction	I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma (an incurable blood cancer) in December 2009, requiring ongoing treatments that have included in-patient chemotherapy sessions, an autologous stem cell transplant, two haploid allogeneic transplants from different donors (my oldest brother and oldest daughter), a tumor in the femur that resulted in a broken leg, ongoing and intermittent radiation to the spine, just about every chemotherapy available, and a CAR-T trial. My counts have not yet recovered from the CAR-T trial, and so I am currently receiving weekly platelets and often red blood cells. The promises in God's word are what keep me going!! This blog is a compilation of Scripture verses, devotions, and other writings that have especially encouraged me. May God bless you and keep you!!
