Elizabeth was admitted to the hospital last night so she can start Interim Maintenance today. She will receive high doses of chemo for the next two months on a regular basis. This marks an important milestone in her treatment because two years from today she will finish chemotherapy.
As we were sitting in the small hospital room together, Elizabeth started praying. Her faith and love through these difficult times are a tender mercy from the Lord (Elder Bednar).
We are so grateful for such a beautiful light in our lives!
As we are preparing for this next phase in our lives, several quotes from conference talks have been on my mind lately. Even though Elizabeth is three, I believe she understands and lives these principles (she often recites the verse in John 14:15, "If ye love me, keep my commandments")
"You need never be discouraged or afraid. The way through difficulties has always been prepared for you."
"[People] accomplish marvelous things by trusting in the Lord and keeping His
commandments—by exercising faith even when they don’t know how the Lord
is shaping them."
