12/30/2009 All of Pam's preparations for Christmas certainly created an extremely happy and busy season. We celebrated with all 4 children, 8 grandchildren, and family (immediate and extended) members throughout the past two weeks. The experience was precisely what Pam planned and hoped for. she was active, throughly engaged, and barely affected by the effects of the cancer.

Pam is back in her normal routine. After leading the sanctuary choir on Sunday, she returned to chemotherapy on Monday. She has experienced the normal abdominal pain and lack of appetite associated with chemo since her treatment. She will continue on her plan of a treatment every three weeks.

Pam has been undergoing chemo for about 18 months, yet she continues to maintain her faith and her positive outlook for healing. Your prayers and support have been most welcome and an inspiration to her well-being. May God bless you all.
