Day 1

Today was my first chemotherapy treatment at M.D. Anderson. I started with a pain management appointment where I was prescribed some breakthrough pain medication to use when necessary. We then headed to the the chemotherapy wing, where everything went according to plan. It took about 6 hours, and I actually came in with more pain than I left with. So far I have experience no side effects, and I had a great night sleep last night! Thank you Lord! The prayers are taking effect and I trust He is protecting my body from the harmful effects while providing all the benefits. All Glory to God. Amen.

  2. We want you to know that you are in our thoughts, on our hearts and in our continued prayers. Psalm 103:1-5 reveals that our God is a healing, loving, and compassionate God who has the ability to satisfy our desires with good things so that our youth is renewed like the eagles. May the God of peace be with you and give you great courage, strength, and uphold you during the treatments as you lean on Him. He will never leave or forsake you. Hugs to all!

  3. Ryan,
    We are praying first that you continue to be an inspiration to all around you (especially your parents - that's awesome!)
    John 15:7 says so much between the lines! Not least is that when He is in you and you are in Him, your desires are so close to His that they are, in fact, most likely from Him, so that He gives you what he already placed in your heart to ask for. That doesn't make them any less yours, but you are totally in His will.
    Wishing you all that is in 3 John 2, and all that God has in plan for you, which is great indeed!
