Amos, Colleen's father blogging for Colleen today.
Hello Everyone,
Sorry I did not post yesterday. We had a good day but tiring on us old folks. Colleen was allowed to go home yesterday and spent the night at home. She is very sore but is a trooper in dealing with it. The doctor said she could take a shower today for the first time. She can move about on her own. The arms continue to be the problem. She can't put much pressure on or lift much at all. It is still very amazing what she can do with having such major surgery. God is good and your prayers have been so vital to this process.
Pray that we can finally shake this flu bug which must still be in this house. Leigh Ann had the throw up version last night which Shelby had last. Hopefully it will be short as Shelby's was. We are keeping her away from Colleen today. Thank you all very much for standing by us through this ordeal. It feels good to be on the other side of the surgery and now we can build back.
In case I haven't told you, Colleen will have about 4 weeks until the second round of chemo begins. It will consist of 4 treatments, 2 weeks apart. This treatment is called "the red devil". The people who administer it have to wear clothing similar to the hazard materials people wear when they do their job. We will need to pray that God will tame the red devil for her treatments. God can do anything we ask. Praise His Name!

Give Colleen a gentle touch from me. So glad the surgery is over and the recover has started.

Dear Colleen,
Please know that my prayers are with you and your family. My prayer is that God gives you the strength and courage to endure this second chemo that you must go through. I know you have the faith that God will see you through and heal you completely.
