Next week is going to be a very busy week. Tonight I told Jimmy that I really do not know when there have been so many medical appts in one week. While I am a little anxious about how to fit everything in ...I am sure it will all just be how it is going to be. I have a feeling that worrying about it...will not make it go any easier. What is that saying I so live by? Oh yes..
God laughs when we mortals make plans...
I would like to ask you for prayers on Tuesday for Philip. It is a BIG appt for him. He will be seeing the DR that has been away. We have some very serious decisions to make. The one that stands out the most tonight is the medication issue. Philip is in pain daily...everyday. He struggles some days to even get up out of bed. And I see It wearing him down. I have a strong feeling that his body is not the only thing hurting..His heart is hurting. He just seems sad. Of course I would be sad also if I felt the way he does daily. I have been praying daily to come up with a well rounded solution for Philip..medically and spiritually. I am sure God is listening and soon we will all see a improvement in Philip.
So Tuesday at 1:00....we will meet with the Dr . Philip is due to get his morphine pump refilled. I am also curious to see what this DR thinks about his partner raising Philip's pump by 15%. There is a medication that has been talked about in the past that we will discuss again. I have to admit that this medication has some wonderful effects. I am scared for Philip to have it added in his pump. For years I have heard some scary things about this medication. I never really thought much about it..because I never thought we would need it.
I pray that God shows us a clear path in this decision. And if this is the path we end up going..that he calms any worries that this over protective mom has.
I also will be having some testing this week, seeing the surgeon and making some chemo changes.
And let's not forget that Emily and Reed will be going to school. How did my baby boy get old enough to go to High School and my sweet girl go to Jr. High...and a more important question could be..since I am 29 years old..how is it even possible to have children old enough to be in those grades...Hummm...LOL
I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday. This has been a long week . Glad it is the weekend. Wish it did not go by so fast...
What are you all doing next week? Wanna share?

LOL @ 29 and holding! I said that too for a while but finally decided to embrace my 30-ness since I'm lucky that I made it this far...LOL!
Will most definitely be thinking of Phillip and I pray that he receives the relief he needs and deserves. God bless him.
Hosting a senator at a town hall meeting, getting Three Star certification from the state, having dinner with the Corps of Engineers and a meeting with them the next morning. Sorry you will be busy and have to miss the meetings again.
We are praying for you and Philip as well as all of your family Amy.
Love and Prayers,
Tim
Wow, you're 29 already?!
Thanks for the update of Philip. We'll be praying. I have my 1st OB appointment this week and we should have puppies any minute, that's what is on my schedule for the week.
I will be painting and cleaning the house my son bought that will soon be our new office, which means I will finally got out of my 8' x 10' portable office that I have been in for almost 2 years WooHoo, I will also be working in my flower beds, sad that the end of the season in coming, and I will be probably playing lots of Farm Town since my husband leaves for another 5 day fishing trip on Tuesday and I will be home alone.
I for sure will be praying for both you and Phillip, hope that each appointment and test will bring good news, new hopes and the best results and hopefully dear gracious Lord some relief for Phillip...Pain is such a very hard thing to endure...and he has been such a strong young man...praying God gives him relief soon.
I will pray for your appt's this week... I am doing last min. things before I have to go back to work at school this week... praying my kids don't kill each other or the house while they stay home alone for a week and half!
Sure, I'll share... :)
Praying as always for Philip, you, the whole family. Extra prayers for those high school girls once they get an eye full of Reed. Watch out. Extra prayers for Jimmy when those middle school boys see E...
Besides that... working my last week before getting kicked to the curb again, meeting for career options, interview, softball, dance, soccer, blood letting, wishing I could share a SB or DC with you...
And most importantly... extra prayers for Tuesday's appt for Philip and your surgeon appt.
On Tuesday os the auction to help Kori and her family. Looks like it's gonna be a big day for all!
Wow Amy, we're the same age...I'll be 29 too this month (we won't tell that it'll be my 5th time...shhh!!!) ;-) Anyway, good luck to Emily & Reed this week! And ALL my good thoughts to Philip for his apointment on Tuesday.
As for my week... I applied for a second job (arg!) and on top of that need to work on my 'third job' with my photgraphy & work on finishing some wedding photos, while also meeting with brides & planning for two weddings I'm shooting in September...
