Very Inspirational Verse

My friend Jossie Garcia posted this to facebook today and I found it spoke directly to Mom's situation:

Isaiah 43:2
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.


It's so true, and between faith and all of her friends and family we will not let her become overwhelmed or consumed.

Best of luck Mom with the new chemo regiment today, you're in all of our thoughts and prayers!
