HI! I just wanted to post a little before we head up to the hospital. Either Kevin or I will post later to keep you all informed. I am getting more nervous as the time draws closer. We went to listen to Joel Osteen Saturday night and he explained times like this real well. He used the analogy of a boxer. When a boxer is taken down in the ring, the referee counts: 1-2-3-all the way to 8-9-10--YOU'RE OUT! God counts the opposite: 10-9-8......to 3-2-1--time to GET UP. You may have been down, but now it is time to get up, brush yourself off and go on.
I see myself right now as getting up, during chemo I will brushing myself off, and then I will GO ON.
What an exciting thing, because God is so good! While I am a little nervous, I am not scared.
I also spoiled myself a bit this weekend. I got a pedicure, a manicure and my hair done. That was about all we did this weekend. The Doctor wanted me take it easy and just relax. We also went to the Catholic mass Sunday. It is a beautiful church.
A little humor:
The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray, "Take only one. God is watching."
Further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. One child whispered to another, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples."
Kevin or I will post later to let you all know what happened today.

Kasey,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all the way.
Tex and Neta Davis.
Kasey,
You have never left our thoughts and prayers for the last year. We've been following your progress and I'm so excited that this day has finally come. You have made it through the last year with grace that not many people possess. It is your strength and faith in God that carries you through (not to mention an awesome husband and two wonderful kids). A lot of the battle you have been fighting has to do with the will to survive and a positive attitude, which you have mastered!We are sending you bigs hugs and prayers.
Love,
Julie and Madigan
