Hi everyone,
I wanted to tell you why I've not been writing. As you may know, I finished radiation on March 2nd. What I did not expect is that my skin would continue to burn and get worse for a week or more, and I would be hit with fatigue.
I'm now two weeks past radiation, and I am now feeling a bit better each day. The intensity of pain and burning has lessened a lot. I thank you all who have been praying for me.
I hope to get back to writing in another week or so. I just haven't had the energy to write. I've rested a lot between the must dos of life.
God bless you all! Don't give up on my blog. I'll be back!
Laura
Resting and Recovering
I'm so glad you can see good days ahead, To God be the Glory.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, my friend, and give yourself lots of grace! I've been through this will my mom and it took time for her to feel whole and healthy again. I'll be here whenever you're ready to return to blogging.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure we're all thinking of you and appreciate the update. Take care and take it easy. We'll all be here when you get back!
ReplyDeleteSweet Laura,
ReplyDeleteYou rest yourself!!!
We will be here when you return. : )
Hugs and prayers. Always. : )
Dearest Laura, thank you for the update. I am so glad the pain and burning is lessening, but oh, what you have been through! I continue to lift you up in prayer.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your return, dear friend, but please know there is no rush. I think I speak for many when I say we are most happy to wait for you to feel better. Much love to you!
God bless you, Laura. You’re in my thoughts and prayers. Long time on and off reader, first time commenter.

Rest up dear friend! My bff from work finished her radiation yesterday and she said she is pretty burned under her arm and boob area. I didn't realize it may get worse for a couple weeks, either. Hopefully, you are on the mend now!
ReplyDeletefeel better soon! I'm always thinking and praying for you. rest easy...
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay, keep on praying, trusting and moving forward in Jesus.
ReplyDeleteSurfing in the web, I discovered your interesting blog, Laura. Sosa much to read and so many interesting tips. Glad to see that you're feeling better day by day. God is at your side. Enjoy your time.
ReplyDeleteDear Laura,
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting us know how you are doing. Please be sure to rest as much as you can! I am sure it isn't easy being a wife and mom. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayer. And be sure to take your time, we all understand. : )

Please give yourself time to recover from the fatigue. It takes time and trying to hurry the recovery time will not help. It took me several weeks to get my energy back. Give yourself time and grace. Sending prayers and good thoughts your way Teddie
ReplyDeleteI continue to pray for you, and I was just thinking when I was praying for you this morning that I hadn't heard from you in a long time. I am so thankful you are getting some relief, and I trust Jesus to heal you completely, my dear friend. God bless you and hold you extra close! Sending love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteI’m so sorry to read this. I pray you continue to feel better. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteAmen, ditto what Stephanie said.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs and continued prayers,

Laura, Don't think for one second that any of us would "give up on your blog"! We are just so thankful that you are on the road to total healing, please just rest and take comfort in God's loving embrace. We're not going anywhere..sending a gentle hug across the miles.
ReplyDeletePraying for you and that you will be feeling much better soon. Miss you writing your blog. You are a blessing to me. May God bless you and your family.
ReplyDeleteDear friend, maybe you do not remember who I am because I've been away for reasons very similar to yours because of my husband's illness.
ReplyDeleteRadiotherapy burns but in a not too distant time it recovers and the skin regenerates favorably.
I wish you a prompt recovery and I want you to know that you are in my time.
Blessings
Dolores
Will never give up on you or the blog. Will keep praying for you.
ReplyDeleteTake your time to rest and we hope you feel better each and every day.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry you have been in pain. I was worried about you as We had not heard from you. You are still in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering why I haven't heard from you. Prayers that you will be feeling great soon and you will have your strength back

You are a sweetie pie Laura. So glad you are feeling better. I think about you a lot. You take care and rest when you feel like resting. Love, Henny
ReplyDeleteOh My Dear! I forgot to tell you to expect continued reddening and burning in the days/week following radiation. It is awful, I know. The fatigue takes a while to go away, too. Just so you don't panic- the fatigue will most likely get a bit worse before it hits its peak and then will slowly get better....probably 2 to 4 months before you get your energy back depending on how your body processed trauma. Just don't get depressed because it is happening-you will get through it and one day wake up and feel normal again. You are "young", too, so that helps.
ReplyDeleteI am praying you well, Laura!!!! Love to you- xo Diana
Laura, just found your blog site. God Bless You and Keep You Well. See you soon!
ReplyDeleteSweet friend, do not apologize for taking time off from your blog! We will be here when you are able to return and write again. Do take care of yourself, and let yourself heal! You are always in my prayers, as I walked today I called your name to the Lord, and will continue to do so! Believing in prayer with you that the healing will continue and you will feel much better soon. I'm thankful the burning has lessened! Blessings and hugs to you :)
