In the Waiting!

Sunday 6/25 - 7 pm update!

There’s a saying “No News is Good News”. We are still waiting for Julia’s Oncologist to give us a call with the bone marrow’s findings. We were expecting their call Friday or Saturday as they had told us. Likely this will roll until tomorrow Monday.

It took juju 30 hours after her bone marrow biopsy to start feeling pain relief and make small steps to move her legs. This is for sure one of the most painful procedure she’s had.

Julia is starting to loose her hair. Although this is temporary will grow back, it’s a totally different feeling to see it happening before your eyes! Breaks my heart and only Jesus can help us with what our heart needs.

Prayer Request:

    •    bone marrow biopsy to be cancer free

    •    Next phase of treatment ‘Consolidation’ to be light on juju’s body, offering the treatment she needs for her ultimate healing

    •    Julia’s appetite, she’s not eating much anymore. All doctor cares about is for her to put in calories regardless of what foods she wants to eat, that includes Cheetos, yes!

    •    Healthy bowel movement

    •    Juju to understand the hair loss & still feel beautiful & joyful

    •    Strength & Wisdom for us the parents: decisions we need to make, questions we ask & all else that comes to your mind, thank you!

In the waiting! What do I do in the waiting?

Aside from loving my little sunshine as best I could, you would find me at any moment:

• Remembering where Christ has saved me from and how he’s given me hope & victory in past seasons, He’s done it before & He will do it again!

• I rehearse in my mind scriptures and songs I’ve learned through my walk with Christ that are truly helping me in this season to find hope & strengthen my faith. Best Scripture singer Sherri Youngward 🙏🏼💕 her scripture songs are beyond a blessing to me in this season! https://youtu.be/Q4XOKVTmcg4

• I cry often! Overwhelmed by all, but God’s relentless love faithfully sends me one of His angels on earth to lift me up! My best friend/older daugther Geo, or a sweet friend that loves our family, or one of my dear friends/sisters that love Jesus and are filled with God’s love & grace and they simply walk me back to God’s hiding place!

• In the waiting! You’ll find me giving thanks to Jesus for life, every single day is a gift not to be taken for granted, thankful for each day I get to hold my little sunshine. Thankful for Jesus’s love demonstrated on the cross, for the salvation we can enjoy because of who He is and what He did. For every perfect & good gift He’s given me is all from His hand. Thankful for you all, and the time you invest lifting a prayer for my little sunshine Julia!

In God we Trust!
