Kara went in to start chemotherapy this morning. They had some trouble finding a vein to start the chemo, but eventually were able to get it started. She will probably need to have another PICC line placed for the duration of the chemo treatments. She should be home around 5:00 or 6:00.
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray that Kara tolerates this chemotherapy well, and that there are no complications.
- Please pray that the cancer be eradicated from Kara's body, permanently.
Thank you.
In February 2005, Kara was diagnosed with a rare form of metastatic brain cancer – large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. She is a devoted mother of two, and a caring and generous wife, sister and daughter. This blog was started to keep family and friends informed of Kara's progress. The thoughts and prayers Kara has received through this blog have been an unending source of hope and inspiration, including many kind and encouraging comments from people she has never met. We thank you all.

Dear Kara, How we hope all went well with the chemo yesterday, that you were able to get home last PM as planned, that you have a new PICC line which will give great access for all future blood draws and I-V Rx, that you are resting and feel our prayers and love and support! Stay strong and full of faith and trust knowing that you are being completely healed throughout your healthy body which is responding to all the powerful medicine it's receiving. You are in my thoughts and prayers continuously and never more than this week-end. Love to all, Aunt Betsy
Kara - The healing service was extraordinary. The Holy Spirit's presence was so tangible around you when we were at the altar rail. You've been constantly in my prayers since then. Love, Barbara
