Image
NEW 6/14 UPDATE! Deb is feeling much better. No more chest pains. Thank you all for praying!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6/14 UPDATE  PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR DEBORAH N. Y'all have been so good to pray for my friend Deborah. She went home today. She's still not feeling well and having some of the same troubles. The doctor thinks it may be something gastrointestinal. She will see a specialist next week. We both believe she will have complete healing. I just wish you could all know Deb. She's one of the most encouraging, full of life people I know. Thank you again for praying. Her healing is coming! Thank you Jesus Bless you all! Laura ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NEW 6/13 UPDATE!  PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR DEBORAH N.

Getting Closer to the Finish Line With Herceptin Breast Cancer Treatment

Image
Update on me: It's medical week. That means limited productivity. But I'm getting closer to the finish line for the final chemo treatments. I see the doctor or nurse practitioner on Monday or Tuesday then have a Herceptin treatment by IV on Wednesday every 3 weeks. It takes all morning. I then go home and go to bed for the rest of the day. I feel pretty fatigued for a few days, then I improve. I will finish my year of Herceptin treatments on July 18th if all goes according to plan. I'll keep seeing my cancer doctor and having tests but less often as time goes by.  I'll have another surgery this fall. I also have a 💊 pill I must take for 5 years to help prevent recurrence. It's my understanding that the difference between remission and cancer-free is five years. I say in Jesus' name I am cancer-free now! I will never be able to thank you all enough for going through this with me. Your comments, emails, cards, letters, and gifts have encourage...

A Bit About Now

Image
♥♥♥ Lowell and Laura Lane I thought you might like to know a bit about my life right now.  My 16 yo daughter who keeps me running since she hasn't got a license yet, is in Nashville recording her first single. It's going to be available on iTunes. I'll send an announcement out when it's ready.  I didn't have to run anywhere today! Yay! I got some extra knitting in. I'm going to have to start taking photos and sharing my knitting on the blog. A couple of my chemo nurses invited me to a knitting group. I finally went in January. I've make new friends and learned new things. I've made lots of hats to donate to the chemo center this fall. When I get my size 4 Chiao Goo circular knitting needles in the mail, I'm going to begin knitting the Reyna Shawl . It's a free pattern on Ravelry . If you want to be friends, my name is HarvestLaneLaura .  My 20 yo daughter is living at home after staying with a friend part-time last fall. Sh...

Honor and Happily Ever After

Image
This is our happily ever after.  We didn't expect it to include cancer,  but we didn't expect four children either!  ~smile~ We've been married since 1986.  Lowell has been faithful to me in the good times and the bad times. He has taken care of me through the years  and  through this past year. Lowell Lane I love you, and I honor you  for  honoring your marriage vows to me. I hope we will have many more years together... forever... no matter what.
