Need of Prayer
ok going to make this quick!
I'm back in the hospital and they found blood clots to both legs. So that explains not being able to move them. They are filling up with liquid bad!
So just say some prayers. I'm thanking God for sending me to the Doctors so that they could catch this!
Love,

I Feel the need for Speed!
Prayers answered?
Has most of you know I have been fighting for energy,I'm thinking its the chemo and my MS. Once again I have to tell you how awesome my husband is! He lifts me everywhere with never a complaint, Even after he had to go to the chiropractor! My legs and my feet are hard to lock up and move. We asked the Dr. for something to help. He was all well we should do an MRI to make sure the cancer is not pressing on her spine! I'm thinking NO because God has already healed me! So he gave me a stimulant he said its just like speed! Never done anything of the sorts but, just the word Speed excited me! They said i should know in 3 days if it works! Please let this be the prayer we have been Praying for!

The few, The proud,.....The Boyles
So last Saturday I got a call from Ashley and she had told me how she was riding her bike to work while it was raining and some how ment to jump the curb only the bike had a different idea....to jump the curb sideways! The sideways jump turned into a massive fall! Some bystanded saw what happened and helped her back on to her bike. And because us Boyles are so tough, she rode her bike the rest of the way to work! (They told her she had to still come in because they didnt have enough people to cover her shift) Ashley kept telling me that she thought it was broken and I kept telling her that if it were broken you wouldn't be able to stand on it........WRONG! Long story short, Ashley broke her foot in THREE places! She's a tough girl! And getting through it because the Boyles are tough! So last friday they put a boot on her foot to help the healing process. Poor girl, in Hawaii with a boot, how sad. No swimming for her....just whale watching.
As far as me....I'm getting better but still not 100%. I'm sure I'll be feeling my best just as soon as it's time for the next chemo! Love you guys and thanks for all the prayers!

Third round Of Chemo!
I had my third round of Chemo! Went well! The day before I had a swallowing test. That was amazing. It was an x-ray that showed me exactly how I was swallowing it was cool. I was aspirating my liquid to my lung. which isn't good because your mouth is the dirtiest! They told me to keep my mouth very clean. My Neurologist showed me how to swallow properly. I take the drink and touch my chin to chest and swallow. And no water, its the hardest thing to swallow! The thicker the better. And other tip that really helped me out and now I haven't had a coughing attack since. Praise God! I'm doing great, just tired. We decided to have Chemo on Fridays in stead of Thursdays that way I don't crash until Monday. So We can enjoy the weekend and attend our amazing Church! They increased my oral steroids so we are praying that I won't crash so bad. I really am blessed because I have really strong Chemo, the strongest, and I really don't get sick! I was blessed with my MS medicine, most people get really ill with those too and I hardly ever got sick!
Thanks everyone for your prayers and support you have given myself and Family, You Rock!

Asking about my song, heres the lyrics
Starfield Over my Head Lyrics:After the words have all been saidAfter the songs are sungI realize I've only but just begunTrying to wrap my mind aroundExtravagant love come downLeaves me undoneFinds me with nothing to sayThe reach of Your fameThe power in Your nameYour glory surrounds meIt's over my headIt's over my headThe shame of the crossFor all that it costThis friendship astounds meIt's over my headIt's over my headUnquenchable songs and endless praiseA million tongues poised to singCould still not conveyThe worth that Your name deservesBeauty for ashesJoy for painMercy instead of my blameRuins me for more[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/L8xM ]I'm lost in Your presence, LordHallelujah...Lost for the words to sayI'm left here in disarrayWaiting for You, waiting on truthI've thrown reason overboardKnowing that there's still moreI don't yet believe, Ican't even perceiveI can't seem to understandCan't seem to find my wayIt's over my head, it's over my headLearning this mysteryTrust what I cannot seeIt's over my head, it's over my headThe wonder of all You've madeFoundations Your hands have laidBringing me back to myknees, to my kneesI'm lost for the words to sayLost for another wayBringing me back to myknees, to my kneesI'm lost for the words to sayLost for another wayRuined for anything other than Your loveI'm desperate to know You, LordDesperate for what's in storeFinding my hope in only You, in only YouTake me beyond this doorLead me to something moreOpen my heart up for moreof You, more of YouLyrics: Over my Head, Starfield [end]

Boy I'm on a roll with My Blogging!
Felt Really Good so made a mad Dash to the Cabin, Mike wasn't expecting me to go in but when I got there I said I can't drive up here and not go in! So Dennis and Celeste made a fire and warmed the place up for us. Fun Fun. It was so nice to go there, it made me cry! They did such a great job!
The Challenge Continues
I had two appointments last Wednesday. My Oncologist and Neurologist.
The main reason I went to my Neurologist is to tell him I am no longer taking my Multiple Sclerosis meds. (a 3xs a week injection with a interferon called Rebif) The oncologists Pa had weened me down to a 1/2 steroid everyday (From a 40 MG). I could tell my strength was getting worse! I told Mike we needed to call the Neurologist because he understands my MS better than an Oncologist ( Who was on vacation again!) Mike called the office. They said that they could fit us in March 31st! I thought to talk to his Nurse and left a message. She Had left him a note on his desk. We were praying so hard for an appointment! He told us to come in that next week. (another answered prayer) He had ordered the steroids for me on the 17Th. He was aware of my experience I had with my treatment.
He said as far as my MS goes the Chemo will possibly knock it out. They give Chemo to Ms patients who have tried everything else. Thank goodness Mike asked about my choking,I had hardly taken in any fluids because I Would choke! He taught me how to swallow so I wouldn't, which increased my intake.
Then went to my oncologist next. He ordered IV's and blood work. Just got home from there the Doctor called had to go back in for more blood work because the last one said all kinds of things.
My potassium was critically low, anemic, dehydrated, that I might need a blood transfusion. I might have to be admitted! I'll be honest I started to cry I had seen enough of the hospital! Then we started to pray! God is so awesome! We went to our old hospital someone was there that knew how to access my port and be Qualified! so she got my blood right away. Even remembered me from the steroid treatment! Mike got to take me home and bring back sample for them to test. T hey said they would call if I needed to come in. We waited and prayed they never called we assumed that was good news actually, God has been so good to us we KNEW! They called the next day, said everything was low but not critically! The Power of Prayer! Once again I would like to thank all of you for your prayers and food and Flowers and to many things to name off that you have given to my family! You just never know how many friends you have until you meet a challenge head on! And wow do I have dear Friends! We love you all and are so thankful we have you all in our lives. God has truly Blessed US!
Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again-my Savior and my God! Psalm 42:11
