Prayers as we prepare for 3rd Chemo...

Thank GOD for all of you have been praying for us and supporting us in
many ways(eg marketing, run to libraries for Samuel's favourite titles,
buying his favourite stuff, sending Sam and I home after discharge).
May GOD bless all of you richly in return!


Pray for God's presence to go with us as we adapt to some changes this time.
- uncertainty of A ward, Derrick need to travel tomorrow nite.
Pray that we will have the frame-of-mind to rest in the faithfulness of
GOD to take care of every situation.


Pray specifically for effectiveness of the chemo drugs to destroy the
cancer cells, shrink the tumour(for possible early surgery to remove tumour)
and protection of Samuel's health. Two days ago, Samuel's nails have
darkened significantly. Earnest prayers of protection over his health
is coveted.


Pray that God will help us to cope when the chemo that causes greatest
discomfort is administrated(usually between 8 to 10 pm). Thank God for
answering our prayers during the 2nd chemo, HE helped Samuel to sleep
through this period.


Unfortunately, due to fear of vomit and unpleasant nasal feeling,
Samuel usually avoids food(consumes only 1 cup of milk, cornflake,
2-3 pieces of fruits, with other fluids per day). Pray for GOD's
grace to overcome this, and his input can be improved.


Pray for Caleb(with the LIMs again) and our homefront.


Tentatively, we will be in hospital from Tuesday to Friday.
A earnest request - as Samuel and I(Claire) may to wake up a few
times in the night, we need to catch up with our sleep
in the afternoon 2-4 pm.

Please refrain from calling us this time,
morning(our Peak time as doctors go through their rounds)
and nite (8-10 pm).
