Hello Everyone,

Today is July 5th, and I have been in Mexico a week now. I am feeling great and am very encouraged about the treatment and what all I am learning.

I continue to be amazed at the gentle and wonderful hand of my Lord Jesus in providing me with such a wonderful group of people to surround me through this journey. Fear? What is that? I feel so encouraged and uplifted that I am rejoicing in the fact that I can be in such a learning mode. Yes, my body is not so very comfortable, but my mind is active and happy.

I do request prayer for my "port". We have not made friends too well so far. My port was placed in my chest and runs up to my jugular vain so that the nurses can access it for blood work and I.V. treatments without having to stick my arm each time. I do have pain from this, our theory is that somehow the port was instilled too close to a nerve and once the access was placed into the port, I have pain.

Jeanette is still with me until Friday. What a tremendous help and comfort she is to me. She has been able to go do some sightseeing and make some good friends on her own. My Mom will arrive on July 13th and stay with me until I leave on July 20th.

I am having quite a time working in my new ministry - cheering up the other people and staff here. I have worked to tap into some of my zany humor and cheery good spirit. I am NOT a gentle nursing, comforting type person - so this is stretching for me. I have some great ideas about ministry and teaching about nutrition once I leave and turn a corner in recovery.

I want to thank each and every one of you who have written to me by e-mail. Bill is forwarding all notes to me - I LOVE IT TREMENDOUSLY. What a blessing to have this mode of communication. I am having people write me from all over the world and the US. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! I send my love to each of you. Please know that I am in good spirit, and very encouraged in all that I am going through.

In Christ’s amazing love and hope,

Belinda
