Well...God did it again!

I'm so thrilled to tell you that I'm in REMISSION again! Don't you just love those reports from my doctor?! I certainly do and hope that each report from here on is that same beautiful word...R E M I S S I O N ! As you know, it's my favorite word!
I've been feeling a lot of being irritable, snotty, hateful and shared that with my doctor. She gave me something to help me and she told me that was normal for my condition. Thank God there's something normal about me!!!
I had a real treat today. One of the gals that I did my radiation and chemo with was there for her check-up and we had lunch together and then hubby and I took her to the airport. She lives in Midland and has to fly in for her follow-ups. She looked great and it was wonderful to see Lynn. She made my day!
Celebrated my Dad's 75th birthday over this past weekend and want to thank all of you for responding to your invites with your cards and good wishes. He's having a blast and it's a shame that the month of July will be over with soon. If you haven't sent your card, there's still time. And if you don't get it sent in for July, then go ahead and send it. He's just like a little boy in a toy shop! Oh, do I love my Dad! I just love everyone!
Thanks for your prayers and thanks be to God for the healing that he is working in my brain. My doctor did tell me that there is some scar build up and that I may have problems down the road, but right now...it's REMISSION! I think I'm healed, but they don't like to use that word - at least not yet! Love to you all, Jeanine

A little Nassau Vacation


This was postponed from over a year ago. Feeling good enough for it now. We had a fun, fun trip.

Are you ready for my report from the doctor?

I'm still in R E M I S S I O N ! YAY AND THANK YOU GOD! I gotta tell you, that word means more to me than you will ever know. It's one of my favorite words! My next doctor appointment is Wednesday, July 23rd at 10:00 a.m. They are so confident that I will stay in remission that I don't have to do bloodwork any longer (or at least for a while)! YAY!!!

How can I have made it without your prayers? I couldn't have. It's the one thing that we can give to one another that is still free. I ask that you continue to pray for me and my family. We're all in this journey together.

The more I talk to people, the more I realize how many folks are ill or have cancer. One good thing about Senator Kennedy having a brain tumor is that there will be more funds given to the brain tumor foundation because he's considered a celebrity. When these things happen to celebrities, then things start happening! Let's all remember Senator Kennedy in our prayers. It's a horrible thing to go through on your own, and I feel like I know how close the Kennedy's are as a family.

To each of my readers who are sick, please know that God is with you. Don't be angry at him for health problems. Our God shall supply all our needs, according to his riches in glory. He is our healer.

Didn't mean to preach a sermon, but it's what was on my heart. I just know too many of you who are hurting.

Hubby is doing fine. He hasn't passed a stone yet, and we are wondering if there ever was a stone to begin with. Praise God he isn't in the pain he was in. He's taking really good care of me. Mom was in the hospital with pneumonia and then they sent her to rehab. She's been in rehab for over 2 weeks and will be going home on Friday. She's quite anxious to get back to a normal life. There are other members of my family requiring prayers. Please lift them up to the Lord for a total and complete healing. I lift each of you up to the Lord so that he can heal you too!

I won't be updating my blog until my report on July 23rd. Check back then to see that I'm still in REMISSION! Whoo hoo!

Thanks for your prayers. I love you all.

Just Wanted to say "THANK YOU" again

Hello Family and Friends,
Thanks for all the blessings that you give to me. I have people that I don't even know make things for me, take me to lunch and other fun things!

My hair is very slowly coming in. Unfortunately, it's a different color, really dark, compared to the blonde that it was. I was really praying that God would give me hair for the 4/12 wedding in San Diego, CA, but it doesn't look like that will be happening. I'll wear my wig and be lovely!!!

Bill hasn't passed his stone, and we're thinking that he has either passed it or that it's stuck somewhere in his body. He hasn't been hurting at all, so we think that all is well with him.

Enjoy your spring and may God be with you at all times. He does love each of us...and we all do love him!

Love,
Jean/Jeanine

Easter 2008 Jeanine and "Thumper"

Happy Easter Everyone!

Thursday, March 20, 2008

What's our favorite word?

R E M I S S I O N ! That was the report from Dr. Maher on March 12th! YAY! God continues to be with me throughout this journey. I know if it weren't for all of your prayers that remission might not be the report. Thank you for praying continually for me. God hears them and I feel them.

Got lots of things planned for April and May. My nephew, Kyle Wiley, is getting married to a lovely young lady, Crystal Christensen, on April 12th in San Diego, CA. We're looking forward to flying out for the wedding to witness this special occasion. My brother-in-law, Steve Poe, is going to baptize them both on April 13th. Should be a time for joy and even more celebration!

Then in May we are flying to Ft. Lauderdale, FL for a few nights, just to get away. We had this planned for our anniversary, but it didn't work out, so we will do that in May. We'll also be taking a small cruise to Nassau while in FL. Really looking forward to that!

Each of you have a blessed Easter. Thank you again for your healing prayers.
Love,
Jeanine

As of 3/12/08 "Complete Remission"

Praise the Lord! Jeanine will be updating with more detail, but I just wanted everyone who follows her blog to know that she is doing great! Even, getting some hair back. (Different texture, color and "direction".) Thanks for all the prayers. Prayers work! God Bless You All.
