10/30 Miraculous!!
Prayer worked! Daisy has made a miraculous turn around since yesterday and is doing much better today! Praise the Lord! She was able to spend the night at home.
Please pray for wisdom in how to proceed with treatment and for protection from the swine flu since people close to Daisy have it.
Emergency prayer!!
Daisy had an extremely adverse reaction to chemo today. The doctors do not know why. She was given Benadryl and is asleep right now. She may need to be hospitalized.
Please seek the Father!!
10/29 Prayer requests..
Today at 1pm Daisy will have her next Chemo treatment. Please pray Philippians 4:7 for Daisy today “And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Having returned to school the first half of this week, we would also appreciate your prayers for Daisy to be protected from sickness during the flu season.
Thank you!
10/23 Radiation phase finished!!
Daisy had her last radiation treatment today!! Praise the Lord for sustaining her through this phase!
After today Daisy will only need to go to the doctor for Chemo once a week instead of daily visits. Even today she is fearful of her next Chemo appointment. Please continue to pray with us for Daisy to be strong and courageous like Joshua!
Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong...

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

10/7 DAISY STARTS CHEMO TOMORROW AND CONTINUES...
We are amazed at how kind the Lord was to Daisy today. She started out the day extremely distressed that she was going to have to go to the hospital again. She was almost panicking at the thought. I (Britt) took her in my arms and prayed for her. Then I began to tell her about all of you praying for her and of all the places where she is being prayed for like Africa, Germany, Ireland, Denmark,...

10/3 7:49PM Pray for sleep!
Daisy is really enjoying her days at home and having lots of fun. She is starting to laugh and be her silly beautiful self again.
But the nights have been really hard. Daisy is not sleeping because of pain and itching from that confounded rash! When she does not sleep, Britt and Kate don’t sleep either. Last night she was pretty much inconsolable all night.
Britt is preaching tomorrow and...

10/01 1:02PM PET-CT Results!!
Good news…
Daisy’s cancer has not spread beyond what we expected! It is confined to the peri-aorta lymph nodes and has not entered the blood stream! Thank you Jesus!!! That means we are at stage 3 and not stage 4. Radiation and chemotherapy start next week. Daisy is doing excellent today and is so happy her brother Isaiah ditched school to hang out with her!!!!!!
10/1 10:53AM God is Awesome!!
But as for me, I shall sing of Thy strength; Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Thy lovingkindness in the morning, For Thou has been my stronghold, And a refuge in the day of distress. O my strength, I will sing praises to Thee; For God is my stronghold, the God who shows me lovingkindness. -David (Psalm 59:16-17)
How awesome is God?! In the midst of our daughter having cancer, Kate and I are so full...
