My scheduled 8th chemotherapy was supposed to be on New Year Eve, 31 Dec. As it is the eve of a holiday, the blood test was done today so that my therapy could start earlier on Monday but the test result came back with my platelet count at 75. In other word, my chemotherapy is postponed till another day to be decided on Monday when my Oncologist can have a look at my results.
Again, a little upset with the delay.
I guess looking at the situation, Psalm 131 read during communion on Wednesday was inspired as I have also written that Verse 1 speaks of what I had learnt, Verse 2 on what I aspire to achieve and Verse 3, my faith and hope in God. God is probably telling me to be “composed and quieted my soul” and continue to “hope in the LORD, from this time forth and forever”
It is also probably God’s way of allowing me to support Josie through this period as her company is experiencing some difficulties and she will be very busy and do not need another distraction if I were to have my chemotherapy on this coming week. She may also need to travel in the middle of January and my therapy’s postponement will mean that she will be travelling during my non-therapy week.
Josie’s father was discharged from TTSH on Friday and this also alleviated certain concerns and put the family at ease.
I believe once again, God showed His grace and mercy and planned things for the benefit of His children thus In God I Trust.
