Done with the Radiation Session. Next...

August 25, 2014.

Cass finished the 5-day radiation for her sacrum today. A bear hug to say goodbye to Susan, who is the most gentle and loving nurse at Princess Margaret Hospital we have ever come across.

Cass and Nurse Susan

Now we have to make the decision on whether or not Cass should take the new chemo drug, and to determine the next round of treatment she needs. Besides this, we are also thinking of getting her back to school soon between now and her future medical treatments, whenever her schedule permits, and to let her live as normally as before.  Cass had originally been accepted to Bill Crothers, an athlete school, to continue her high school athlete program. However, knowing her physical condition lately, we are concerned about whether Cass will be able to keep up with the program. Furthermore, the new school year for Bill Crothers already began in early August. As such, we are considering if we should find another school with just the regular programs for her. We know she wants the athlete program and to be an athlete swimmer so much, but she may not be able to continuing on swimming and the program would become a challenge for her. Since we are at such a crossroad, please pray that God will direct us to the way He has planned for us.

I shared this Bible verse with the family during our prayer time as it's been in my head for the whole day. "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."  Jeremiah 29:13.
