Thursday August 21st I started a 2 week course of IV antibiotics. After a rough winter and busy summer I was in need of a tune-up. A picline was inserted into my arm where I administer the antibiotics myself in the comfort of my own home. My last IV antibiotic treatment was 14 years ago, so no harm in a tune-up to help get my priorities in order.

"I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies." Psalm 18:1-3

Hello everyone, my apologies for not checking in and updating my information. It seems this year has been never ending projects or events. These next two weeks I will fill you in on past family events and my current status.

Barbara's Pit Crew says Thank You

Finally an update. Inspite of the cold, windy, 9 degree temperature the Great Strides Walk for Cystic Fibrosis went fabulous. Thank you to everyone for your generous pledges on behalf of our team. Together with 40 other registerd walkers here in Saskatoon we raised $21,700.00 for Cystic Fibrosis. All proceeds go directly to the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation which helps aid research towards a cure or control for CF. I will post photos of the walk soon.

Hello everybody. My blog is very, very new and under construction. Please check back often for updates and whats new in my world. I would love to hear from you. Please leave me a comment.

Philippians 4:4

"He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak, even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:29-31
