Steroids

This week Keith has been receiving steroid injections at Holland Hospital.  The steroid injections are supposed to give him a boost of energy, nothing more than that.  Not sure how long they will last or how often he will need them or if they will even help.  But you don't know til you try! Thursday was his first dose. He said he felt a little stronger, and could stand for longer periods of time, but didn't sleep more than 2 hours that night.  Friday was the 2nd dose, and he left feeling like he could move mountains, compared to what he felt like before. :)  I also called to make sure he could take sleeping pills. Yes!   His 3rd dose is today.  Praying he gets the boost he needs to bale around 4,000 straw bales next week. Or maybe that is why we have 4 boys?  We are seeing a lot more of the the "big picture" lately.  God definitely knew what he was doing when he designed our family. The boys have taken over a lot of the work around here, mostly without complaining. They don't ask a lot of questions but they struggle with knowing what is happening to their dad.
