Be Still, My Soul

Be Still, My Soul

My favorite hymn is “Be Still, My Soul”. This hymn deeply touches me each time I hear it. In fact, I’ve never been able to sing all the verses, because I get so overcome.

How I am feeling now the my cancer has come back

Even though my cancer is no longer in remission, I am feeling better than I
have in a very long time. A month ago I was having more trouble eating, having bad heartburn, and not only losing my appetite, but I was also losing weight which I couldn't afford to do. I was getting to the point where I was having trouble walking out to our vehicle. The fatigue was increasing and I was becoming weaker. The headaches were getting worse, and I experienced dizziness when I stood or walked. I was also having sharp chest pains and was out of breath when I did just a little bit. The toughest thing for me was the depression. I'd see or hear something, then suddenly burst into tears. My husband encouraged me to drink more water so I wouldn't get dehydrated! (He also gave me plenty of hugs.)
