9 p.m.

Irene’s sisters, Carmen and Jane, are here and spending the weekend.  They always breathe life into her…!!!

Even so, Irene’s nausea is hovering around 8 on a scale of 1-10.  It was 9+ last evening.  She’s very uncomfortable; dialysis today was better than yesterday but the recovery is still a challenge.  She’s also coughing because of sinus activity or a cold. 

This morning Irene made a profound comment.  She said that she can endure the suffering when she worships through the tears.  Somberly muse on that statement. 

Irene’s unyielding faith is inspiring and humbling…as usual. 

Hoping for a better tomorrow,
Dave
