Not feeling the best

Matt has good days and bad days.  It seems lately he is tired and not feeling well.  He has no appetite but tries to continue eating.  Matt has a yellow tinge to his skin.

However Matt is not taking as many pain pills because he said the radiation has helped
to take some of the pain away from his pelvic region.  He continues to limp due to some continued  pain but not as bad.

Matt and Casey are getting their Christmas shopping done.  Matt gets up every day and tries to get some things done.  Home hospice continues to come when Matt calls them
to change the dressing on his back and make sure there is no infection at the site of his
nephrostomey tube.

Thank you to everyone for all your continued prayers...

Calm the spirit and feed the soul. Allow yourself to know you are not alone,
and have the strength to take action when it's needed.

Lord Jesus Christ, by your patience in suffering you hallowed earthly pain and gave us the example of obedience to your Father's will: Be near me in my time of weakness and pain; sustain me by your grace, that my strength and courage may not fail; heal me according to your will; and help me always to believe that what happens to me here is of little account if you hold me in eternal life, my Lord and my God. Amen.
