Christianity Oasis Forum
A ringing phone woke me from my nap today. Groggily, I answered it, to find there was an American Cancer Society volunteer on the line.
I wasn't mentally tracking well yet, and she droned on about some program where they show you how to apply make up.
She said the cosmetics come in a case.
She asked me what color I'd like.
I said: "Green." (My favorite color)
She laughed and said: "I'm sorry, I always forget to tell people the shades of make up I'm talking about. Would you like light, for fair complexions . . ."
I had a brief mental image of Margaret Hamilton as the Wicked Witch of the West in "The Wizard of Oz" with her bright green face, and had to laugh also.
I'm glad to have made someone laugh today.

green..oh Pamela..that was classic!!!
your posts remind me so much of a few years ago when i was taking my uncle for his chemo treatments. did they offer you OJ too?? In those long hours we were able to share so many things. Things we had never talked about before. Things he wanted me to know..(he was more like my dad than uncle and we shared the same birth date!!) Sis, the cancer never got him..the Lord had him just as He has you. You are so inspiring to me. Your faith makes my heart sing. Green, yellow, or purple, you are beautiful. (wonder if she will send you green eye-shadow now )
i love you, sis. You have no idea how much you lift my spirit.
In Jesus,
love momo

Hi, momo!
I'm so happy our Lord seems to be using me in all this cancer/chemo situation. May it bring glory, honor, and praise to Him.
Thank you for your kind comments.

Sunday I accompanied a friend to church. It was a glorious service!
Afterward, though . . . I began to feel very physically and emotionally exhausted and depressed. It was a long, lonely day and night.
Today, God answered my prayer!
I have felt unusually good today!
This morning, I got an odd craving for a McDonald's Egg McMuffin, so once I'd determined that dizziness was not a problem, I drove to McD's.
It was SO GOOD to drive again! I've been having dizziness so bad, I haven't driven in weeks!
Then, at lunchtime, a friend brought me a chicken bowl with rice and veggies, which was delicious.
I walked over to her apartment (in the same complex as mine) and gave her a couple of things she needed. We had a nice visit.
I have taken two naps today.
I've also had 4 or 5 nosebleeds today. This is a side effect of chemo.
It is nearly 6 PM, and I still feel so good!
Thank You, Lord Jesus!
Love in Christ----------

I am thankful that God has made it possible for me to become a published author in 2010.
My book of short stories and poetry will be a dream come true! I'm so happy and excited about this!
Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Pamela,
I remember when you first joined Christianity Oasis. You have blossomed, despite the trials you have faced. You truly are an inspiration to me.
God bless you muchly.
again because you are so sweet.

My resolution for today, next month, and years to come is to be further from the world and closer to the Word.
