Life's Journey

I believe God gives us what we need and was very grateful to find your website. The Words of Encouragement have been such a comfort to me.

Our journey began on November 21st when we went to church, were supposed to be going shopping preparing for Thanksgiving and after church my husband, Bill said please take me to the hospital. By noon he was diagnosed with carcinomatosis and malignant ascites. They began to look for the main cause which ended up being a diagnosis of Stage IV pancreatic cancer with a 6 to 8 month life expectancy. Bill started chemo and his tumor marker number has dropped and that is a good thing. However, he is very tired and sleeps most of the day. He has lost over 48 lbs. and my heart aches as I look at him. I am grateful I still have him with me but have days when I feel he is slowly slipping away. Thank you for this wonderful site and to all those on the journey may God bless you and give you peace.
