Journal entry 16; Saturday 7/23/22

 





Today marks the 9 year anniversary of my last chemo treatment! No matter how I want to forget this part in my life, I cannot. This is an event that helped make me stronger and a survivor. So I will never forget!

Today, us ladies got to go help the guys on the construction site. It was HOT!. And even though we were only there for about 1 1/2 hours, it was hard work. They did all the climbing. We did all the small stuff, things that needed to be done but with things we could help with. Mostly picking up the nails and scrap wood off the floor and moving the scrap metal.  We did have our first and only injury. Thank goodness the medical clinic staff were there!! haha. I cleaned and but a bandage on it. This lasted about 15 minutes before he took it off and put a bandaid on it! Tough guy.

For lunch, Franklin has us over again to his house. He is so welcoming and brings us into his family. We had conch soup made by Ana. It was delicious.  Also had some fried chicken. delicious. We had everyone around the table, all 20 something of us. One big family. And Yoly made us tre leche cake. OMG, it was amazing. So good. 

We had church tonight at Franklins church. The walls and roof completed. His church is growing and he is being so blessed!

Numbers 6:24-26
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

Bendiciones,
