Hospital Naps
I always ask my dad what time we are going to leave the hospital. Today he guessed one pm. Instead it was five pm when we walked out of the hospital. I must say that I am exhausted right now after being in the hospital for around six hours. But, I also received some great news today. First of all I had a MRI (brain scan), which showed that my brain cancer has not changed since my last MRI on October 5th. This is very wonderful news as I have been having headaches recently, which can be an indication of a growing brain tumor. I am very happy that that is not the case! Additionally, during the long waiting hours in the hospital, which included a rest time for me, I also found out that my blood cells, except for my hemoglobin, are improving in strength. This means that most likely I will be going back to the hospital again on December fifth for another weeklong chemo treatment that I had almost a month ago. This is both good news and not so great news as I don’t like spending time in the hospital receiving treatments of any sort. So, other than continued health I need prayers for more strength as I am going through the chemotherapy treatment that wipes me out and makes me rather tired. That is the latest news that I have.
Love,
Nathan

What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited . . .
It cannot cripple love,
It cannot shatter hope,
It cannot corrode faith,
It cannot destroy peace,
It cannot kill friendship,
It cannot suppress memories,
It cannot silence courage,
It cannot invade the soul,
It cannot steal eternal life,
It cannot conquer the spirit.

Someone shared this at church and I instantly thought of you. Remember that cancer is limited and know that you are being prayed for here in San Antonio.
Peace,
Kristen Mast
