Hello,
Thanks to you all for your lovely messages. I'm returning to Southmead hospital tomorrow morning for more chemotherapy (this will be my third round)! I'm starting to get used to the fact that I now live my life in slots of feeling well and unwell.
This past week I have felt so much better than last time. (Feeling normal feels amazing)! I am really hoping for a similar experience this time round.
The chemo does leave me feeling wiped out/tired and I spend a few days in bed following treatment, but I'm so grateful for no sickness and no infections thus far ( obviously I am vulnerable/prone to infections after treatment). I really feel this is down to your prayers.
The lovely nurse who usually looks after me in hospital is away on holiday this week. This makes me realise how safe I feel with her, so I'm looking forward to her returning soon.
It would be great if you could pray again that the side effects this time are minimal, also that there are no long term effects! Lastly, for my parents and Phil who look after me so well. I'm sure they need lots of grace at this time. It can't be easy for them, they have literally spent hours in hospital wards with me.
We will let you know how I get on after friday. We're usually in hospital for about 5/6 hours at a time and I'm on a drip for the majority of that time before coming home to bed!
Thanks friends for your amazing support and for reading this blog.
Love Mari

Dear Mari,
You are continually in our thoughts and prayers and we stand with you that round 3 of chemo will go better and that the side effects will be minimal.
Praying that God will continue to unfold his unfailing love to you each step of the way. And that you will get a revelation of how powerful His love really is!
Tons of love and prayers,
Debbie & Johan
Just letting you know that I will be praying as usual! May the Lord wrap you up in His peace and love and carry you quietly through this time.
I'm also asking that He supply an equally nice nurse in the absence of the other one. :)
Love to you, Phil, and your mum and dad.

Hey Mari,
Keep going - you're doing so well. A group of us from City Gate Brighton have been in Florida at the Outpouring that's happening there. We saw incredible miracles. Prayed for you lots while we were there.
