heavy heart

forester

my heart is so heavy this morning for our dear friends, the bradburns. forester started his chemo and radiation yesterday and it was a long, rough day. he has been having horrendous headaches off and on since the spinal tap almost 2 weeks ago and for some reason, nobody can figure out why or how to stop them. it has been incredibly frustrating and so hard on that sweet boy's body and his parents who have had to watch him be in such intense pain. please pray today for the following things....

*that they will see a neurologist and he/she will have wisdom regarding the headaches and how to treat them
*that chemo and radiation will go as planned today and that they will be at the hospital for as short a time as possible
*strength and endurance for whitney as pete leaves town this afternoon for work (thankfully her parents live here and are amazing)
*strengh and peace for pete as he has to be away - can't imagine how hard it is going to be to get on that plane

my human head and heart do not understand why this is has to happen, but i am clinging to what i do know....that God is good and He has a plan.

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28
