Bald Beauties

Todd, Mark, and Brian, the kindness you have shown Scott in "going bald" with him has touched my life, even though I knew it was coming this morning, emotions welled and I was overcome with emotion. I can not say thank you enough. I know it seems silly, but it has made such an impact on me. I tear up every time I think of it! Thank you just does not seem to be enough.

Scott begins chemo again tomorrow, provided his platelet levels are good. Please pray as he goes into this week for strength and as little sickness as possible. We have been told that with each treatment, sickness will increase. I feel nervous going into tomorrow.

I was listening to my iPod while I worked at school this afternoon and heard Jeremy Camp's song, I Still Believe and it touched me so much, it is my heart. Even in my fears and uncertainty I choose to believe. Here are the words:

Scattered words and empty thoughts
Seem to pour from my heart
I've never felt so torn before
Seems I don't know where to start
But its now that I feel your grace fall like rain
From every fingertip washing away my pain
I still believe in your faithfulness
I still believe in your truth
I still believe in your holy word
Even when I don't see, I still believe
Though the questions still fog up my mind
With promises I still seem to bear
Even when answers slowly unwind
It's my heart I see you prepare
But its now, that I feel, your grace fall like rain
From every fingertip washing away my pain
I still believe in your faithfulness
I still believe in your truth
I still believe in your holy word
Even when I don't see, I still believe
Well the only place I can go is into your arms
Where I throw to you my feeble prayers well in brokenness
I can see that this was your will for me
Help me to know that you are near
I still believe in your faithfulness
I still believe in your truth
I still believe in your holy word
Even when I don't see, I still believe
I still believe
Ohhh, I still believe, I still believe
