Cancer is an unpredictable fight, Madey has had several really good days since her last treatment and we are still optimistic about her starting round 4 of her treatments this upcoming week. However, she has been feeling pretty lousy today, one of the side effects of chemo is mouth sores and they are not only uncomfortable, they also make it really hard to eat or relax. We hope this all passes soon so that she can continue to move forward in this fight. Thank you to her friends who came by and spent some time with her this week, Madey really enjoys those opportunities she has to feel like a "normal" teenager again.
We are truly blessed to have so many amazing friends, neighbors, and community members that demonstrate their love and support in a variety of ways. We just found out this week that a 5K funrun (oxymoron) and silent auction has been scheduled to show support for Madeline and her fight with cancer. I have included the information in this post and welcome anyone who would like to participate. No one living in our house has ever actually run a 5K but George and Lindy began training this week and hope to be able to run the entire distance.
Thank you again for your love and support we are confident that with the combined faith and prayers of so many on Madey's behalf we can win this battle with cancer.
Im Ready!
ReplyDeleteCody and I are starting training on Monday so that we don't pass out a quarter mile into it. Good luck George and Lindy! Keep smiling Madey! And if you need distractions we are moving to Utah in about a week and a half!
