Joshua started Radiation on August 29, 30, 31. He has done very well thus far with no sickness or throwing up; he has had some nausea and moments when he told us he was going to throw up. Thankfully they were false alarms!!!!!!!!!!!
We went home for Labor Day weekend. We checked on the house and our pets. I think the pets are missing us!? Joshua had a great weekend. He has been given a boost of energy.
I took the boys hunting and we saw two turkeys and jumped two nice 4x4 bucks from their bed...I may have gotten a shot, BUT...DAD LOOK!!...DAD SHOOT!!...the bucks bounced off unscathed...we found a camo PRIMOS glove (a treasure)...it was a good evening hunt.
Special THANKS to the families of Brenda Christy, Kathryn Youngman, and Schelle Bixler for taking care of house and pets. AND, they are still doing it!!!!
Please pray that Joshua eats nonstop. He has lost another pound this week. His appetite has returned somewhat this weekend. He needs to put on weight!!!!
We are back at Craig and Nyla's. Never a dull moment with all of the kids...see the new photos of the kids running through a home made water toy!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, September 4, we started radiation again. All went smoothly this morning. Joshua also had Chemotherapy at 1:30 p.m. Double whammy today. Please pray against nausea and that he would eat, and eat, and eat...
We have radiation all week again (9/5 @ 10:00 a.m. 9/6 @ 9:30 a.m. 9/7 @ 1:30 p.m.)

Our God is an Awesome God (Dueteronomy 10:17)
For His Loving Kindness Is Everlasting (PSALM 118)
To all who have prayed for us, sent us money, cleaned our house, watered our yard, sent us gas cards, provided meals...
May The LORD bless you, and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine on you, And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance on you,
And give you peace.' (Numbers 6:24-26)

Joshua and Family,
I received an e-mail today regarding Josh from one of our Church Members (Sarah Haley). I read the entire blog this morning and am moved by your faith and perseverance. Our entire church will be praying for you, add 450 people interceding for Joshua and the family. May God Bless you and Keep you during this time of need. I believe that your faith is going to impact thousands upon thousands of lives.
Blessings

Hi Guys and Deana. Thanks for the update. You are never far from my thoughts and ever in my prayers. I will now add appetite to my prayers for Joshua and wisdom for those close to him to know when and what to offer him to eat. Look forward to seeing you soon. Susan
