It is now nearly the end of May, and I’ve been very busy.
In mid April, a group of English ladies came to our church to put on a real English tea and in the process, help us raise funds for a new kitchen. Two of the ladies stayed with Judy and Leigh and I fed them breakfast and helped chauffer them around. It was great fun, but the English tea was full of sweets and my weakness for sugar went rampant.
Two weeks later, I prayed for help to be released from this weakness. I had an appointment with my oncologist and in taking my blood, he discovered my blood sugar was high and reported the same to my internist. When I talked with her nurse that afternoon, I explained the situation and said I’d watch it. I’m sure she’ll recheck it next week.
I’ve increased my volunteering days at the hospital to three a week; two days in the Joan Katz Breast Center. This Wednesday, I visited patients on my own. It was most fulfilling. I hope my visits will reassure them they are not going through this alone.
This weekend, John and I drove to Odessa for Alice Mossbarger’s high school graduation.
Now, as June approaches, I’m beginning to focus on my pilgrimage to Scotland. My son David (father of Alice) will be my travelling companion and I think he’s as excited as I about the trip.
My health and energy continues to improve. I feel better than I did before the breast cancer. Thank you, God!
