Chris had another doc appointment yesterday. This one was up in Texas, though, so we made one of those infamous “while we are off the island” lists.
The appointment went pretty well. All was OK on the breast cancer front. However … she got referred to yet another kind of doctor. Seems breast cancer survivors are more likely to get ovarian cancer. And that’s what her mom had. Yep. Family history strikes again. So. That’s one more doc to keep up with. Glad Chris is a master at doing that.
Next on our list was a quick stop at Mardel’s Christian Store. I needed some more cards, and that’s the only place that has boxed cards with Bible verses in them.
From there we went to James Avery Jewelry. She wanted to have her sloth charm put on her charm bracelet. Little did she know that she was also receiving an early Valentine’s Day
present as well. Her adorable, lovable Valentine guy got her a red heart charm that, for us, has a double meaning. One is, of course, that she is my Valentine. But the red heart - again, for us - is also the symbol for combatting heart disease.
We had to get back home in time for Chris’ next appointment. This one was a little less stressful. She went for a haircut. Looks fabulous. Of course she looked fabulous before the haircut …
Last night we went over to Ball High School. This time it was for a basketball game. Cailyn’s boyfriend Gavin (and his Santa Fe teammates) had a game against the local team. Ball High won this one, 66-53. But Santa Fe gave it a valiant fight.
Romans 5:3-4 says, And not only that, but we also rejoice in our afflictions, because we know that affliction produces endurance, endurance produces proven character, and proven character produces hope.
Father, thank you for the good report Chris had on her follow-up. Amen.
