Dear friends and family,
 
I trust this finds you staying warm and dry on this very 'fall-ish' day.  Thought I'd give you an update after my 6th chemo treatment.  All went well.  Thank you Lord!! and you for your prayers!!!  Sister Ruth and I met with the doctor.  The tumor marker count continues to come down.  Praise God for His working.
Dr. Klimo would like for me to have a couple of scans before he decides the next step.  So that will happen in the next couple of weeks; we will meet again with him and then the decision will be either to go on a maintenance program or continue with the present treatment.
 
The Daily Light and Streams in the Desert continue to be a blessing, but this time I want to share from my Bible Study Fellowship.  The study this year is from Isaiah.  Last week seemed to be just for me!!  Isaiah 7-8.....here are some thoughts shared from our leader.  "He is the God of hosts.  He had control over the Assyrian army; He is in control -- all knowing over all areas of my life!  If I don't turn to Him for help, why not??  There's no one like our God.  Our Sovereign Lord is trustworthy."  What I find amazing in this book is that the promise of the Messiah was given to Isaiah 700 years before His birth.  "...the virgin will give birth..."  "Immanuel" -- God with us!!
 
Blessings and love, Miriam
