Full myeloma study

Greetings in the lovely Name of Jesus!

David does not have any medical appointment this week. In his last Monday's visit, a full myeloma study was done to determine if the next cycle of Velcade (chemo) is necessary. Please pray that his recovery is so complete that he need not go through another treatment. Pray also that he be relieved from his headache and possible sinusitis.

He was having headache last 2 days, probably in part due to the haze. Singapore has been blanketed by smog from forest fires in Indonesia and the PSI level has reached the unhealthy level of > 100 more than a couple of times already.

As for me, I was under quite alot of stress with demands at work and even had nightmares for 2 conservative nights last week. David heard my "struggles" and prayed for me. It was to me a reminder to draw near to God and to pray ceaselessly.

Be blessed as I have with the following passage from the bible, 1 Peter 5 v7-11:

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen." 1 Peter 5:7-11

Thanks & God bless,
