We are so thankful to the LORD that Mom has now completed all her radiation treatments!! She had her last one today - all her treatments are done! She will still have many follow-up appointments, but we are so happy to have this behind her. It has been a long journey - has it really been only 10 months!?
Dad has been such an integral part of this journey also - a true example of "in health and sickness" that we kids are also very thankful for. Our church community, near and far, also has been a huge part in "lifting our burdens" to our God in heaven. Through the good and bad days of treatment, Mom and Dad have always felt surrounded by prayer, receiving cards, phone calls, flowers, meals and visits - thank you all so much!! We pray that God continues to keep Mom on the road to recovery.

"Be still and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.
The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress."
-Psalm 46: 10-11
