Holy Saturday

April 11, 2009
Sorry I haven’t up dated this since the 8th. I met with Dr. Tan on Thursday to prepare for my port to be put in next Tuesday. Being Holy Week and Easter Weekend that was as soon as it could happen. But the good news is, I’ll be able to spend Easter Sunday with my church family. They have been so supportive in thoughts, prayers, cards, etc.
I’ll spend the night at Baylor All Saints and have my first chemo before leaving the hospital. This will give me the opportunity to become familiar with All Saints 7th floor Oncology Unit and staff.
It has been good to visit with Jill and John. Jill spent her Spring Break here sewing PJ’s and embroidering sheets for my room. And John arrived Thursday > He took Jill and I to dinner Thursday and the whole Cariker family, Jill, and me to Macaroni Grill Friday. We celebrated Judy and Jill’s up coming birthdays. I later mentioned to Judy that my gift to her was to give her a day off from teaching to spend at All Saints for my surgery.
Being Holy Saturday, I’m getting ready to go to confession this afternoon. Confession is good for the soul, they say! I cam across a poem I had begun months ago so I’ll share it with you and my new ending:
