Forgot to tell you this one... Ok, so I was sitting in the comfy red chair and getting hooked up to the Herceptin. My port was being cranky. They could get the saline solution in just fine, but couldn't get any blood out. (Sorry to gross any of you out on that one.) Anyway, in order to use it, it must be working both ways. Linda, my nurse tried and tried. She then gave me some special medicine to flush it out. We waited about 45 minutes and tried it again. At first it looked like it wasn't going to work. We planned on using a pick line (that means a needle the old way) to give me the Herceptin and try flushing the port out again. All of a sudden she yelled "Yeah! Yes! We got it! Prayer works! I don't care what anybody else says!" I couldn't agree more with her.
Here I was just sitting there comfortably, not even realizing that my sweet nurse was praying. Then I think, how many times is it that we are praying for friends or someone is praying for us...countless? How many times does God answer prayer just because He loves us and we don't even realize it? I thank God for all of those prayers!
Thankfully praying!

THAT is an awesome reminder. I'm so glad you shared that with us, AND I'm so glad the port worked. We'll be praying for you during your travels!
