Just back from the Dr, labs were down as expected. WBC 1.4 and Platelets 65. So, normal for this time in the chemo round. Erin's stomach is giving her real trouble so they added another medicine to help her with that. She is not feeling so great so she will probably just veg the rest of the day. We go back on Thurs for more blood work. Thanks for the prayers!
"Blessed is he who has regard for the weak; the Lord delivers him in times of trouble. The Lord will protect him and preserve his life; he will bless him in the land and not surrender him to the desire of his foes. The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed and restore him from his bed of illness." Psalm 41:1-3
Thanks to all of you for your love, janet

"For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lods, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope."

God knows what he is doing...some how, some way "it will all be ok."
Love you lots!

Keep your spirits up Erin. This latest wave of yucky symptoms shall pass. Please know that you are in our prayers every single day!
Love,

God is the strength of my heart...Psalm 73:26
God is for you. Turn to the sidelines; that's God cheering your run. Look past the finish line; that's God applauding your steps. Listen for Him in the bleachers, shouting your name. Too tired to continue? He'll carry you. Too discouraged to fight? He's picking you up. God is for you....This was in my devotion book and I thought of you. I'm so blessed by your courage, your strength and your fight that you have shown! I'm praying for you! Love, Terry
The marvelous richness of human experience would lose something of rewarding joy if there were no limitations to overcome.
The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse. (Helen Keller)
I believe she had a few valleys herself...
luv you,
Ms. Susan
Remember that you are the workmanship of God, who created you in Christ Jesus for good works, which He himself chose in advance for you to do. This means that God has a plan and today is a microsecond in that plan, so get ready folks for the good works that God has planned in advance for Erin to do. Look out world here she comes!!!!
Love,
Sheri
Sorry I haven't written in the last week, but I've been in training! I've joined the "Team In Training" to raise funds for the Leukemia Society.
I'm training to do a 100 mile bike ride! I've witness God's grace and mercy in healing you and putting you into remission, I know He will help me train! When I ride I remember Luke 1:37; For with God nothing will be impossible. And also Philippians 4:13; "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"
I have chosen you to be my "honored teammate". I ride to Honor God, remember my Father-in-law, support you and raise money to find a cure!
You (and God) have inspired me. :)
Love ya bunches and continue to pray daily for you. Now I even take you on my bike rides too.

Keep your chin up girl! It will be over soon!
Love you,
Jennifer
Hopefully tomorrow will have you on the back-side of these side-effects. We're certainly praying for you! I hope you got some rest today. I am glad to hear that you were encouraged about going back to teaching next year. What a blessing you will be to that school and those students! What I wouldn't give for you to teach my children!!! I just pray that you're still working with the youth when they get there...by the way, Faith turned 9 yesterday!!! She'll be there before we know it! Two more years and she'll be a rising 6th grader! Yikes! Lots of love to all of you!

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well Erin. Just keep thinking about school and getting excited about going back. I know this journey must seem so long and exhausting, but God will restore you.
"Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up." Psalm 71:20
The whole Psalm is beautiful, talking about a life journey with God as our source of refuge and salvation.
Keep your chin up friend!
You are loved!
Brittany
Erin:
Just find comfort and peace in knowing that your Church Family is here and are praying for you with such diligence daily.
Before you know it, round 3 will over, said, and done with and you will be walking the halls of PRHS among your students and peers!
Can you believe that Relay for Life is almost here? Hoping to see you make the survivor lap? We will all be there cheering you on! I am sure Susan Kirkman will be saving you a spot next to her -- looking forward to it!
Prayers and Blessings Always,
The Cotners
How far you've come and God has carried each of you through it all. It's so wonderful to witness God moving in the body not only the physical human body but the spiritual body - Christ's body as we have knit together and become in one accord for your healing. When the people of God join their voices in one accord earnestly seeking...AWESOME THINGS TAKE PLACE (and have) through the POWER of the Holy Spirit!
