This afternoon I was able to stop by TMC to visit Dixie. She looked really good. She had that rosie color in her checks and a very happy, warm smile. She was battling some nausea shortly after trying to eat her clear foods diet. The nurse came in and gave her some medication to calm her stomach. I hope it worked. Dixie's spirits were really up today. She was really enjoying the company of friends and family that stopped by. Dixie expressed how touched she is by all the prayers, love and support. She really appreciates all the encouraging words and prayers, especially from all the people that don't even know her personally. What an example of God's love and provision!
I would like to pass on a couple of prayer requests:
1.) Dixie's blood pressure has been real low today. Pray that her blood pressure would stabilize in the normal range.
2.) That the nausea would go away.
3.) That the pathology reports will come back stating that the lymph nodes are completely cancer free.
4.) A good night sleep and the ability to rest in general.
As of now the doctors are saying Dixie should be going home on Monday. I know Dixie would like to go home as soon as possible. She misses getting outside. But she is going to have to be a little patient. She loves having company, so stop by for a brief visit and say "hi" if you can. But, the family is asking for NO VISITORS between 2-4 p.m., so she can try and get some rest in the afternoon.
If you would like to leave Dixie a little note, just click "comments" on the bottom of this post, that will take you to a screen that will allow you to leave a message.

Dixie,
You are being fervently prayed for. I pray that God cleanse your body of all cancer and heal you completely, that He pour out blessings on you abundantly and beyond measure.
