Liver Enzymes

"The Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting light..."
Isaiah 60:19

I'm grateful for you, my friends an family, who have rallied around me and my family, who show love and concern whether things are good or look kind of scary!  I could NOT get through this without you!

I talked to my nurse this morning and found out there's a couple reasonable explanations for AST and ALT to suddenly rise.  First is dehydration, which is totally feasible.  I have my water bottle with me constantly, and sip from it all day long.  But I'm probably still only getting half the water I should everyday.  Second is a change in treatment.  Dr. Prystas switched me from a pill form of hormone therapy to one that is injected into my back side.  It's called Faslodex and in a small percentage of women, it causes liver enzymes to rise.

Fear is my need to try to control things.  I don't know how high those numbers will go before the I'm in really bad shape.  But I'm not ready, I have too much to do, to many projects to finish, too many miles to travel, too many memories to be made with my family!  Faith is knowing that Heavenly Father knows that, and that He'll give me some time.  If there is a blessing in cancer, it's some time.  Nathan Pacheco sings a song called "Come As You Are" which is amazing!  If you haven't heard it, you need to!  My favorite line is "Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can't heal!" I truly believe that.  He's aware of us.  He can take away my fear and help me have faith.
