Good morning everyone! Just up for a few minutes listening to ESPN radio before I snooze back off and start at 9:30 today!!!!!!!! 9:30!!!!!! THAT is WONDERFUL!!!! Anyway, some of you have been asking about sending care packages and things like that. Well, we finally have an address for you to do so. Please send your packages to the following: Patient Allen Barber (yes, you do need to include the word patient) St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital 262 Danny Thomas Place Memphis, TN 38105 I cannot express enough how overwhelmed I am personally by all of the love youve expressed. All of the Facebook messages, prayers, texts, jokes, and such like has just been amazing. God has definitely used his people in our time of great need! The hardest part of this whole process is the fact that they have had me fasting every night until late in the day, so that will frazzle ones nerves, but thank God this weekend is Labor Day weekend and the start of college football so were all going to be able to rest and recuperate. I dont know what to expect next week. Today is my last day of radiation for awhile, and next week the plan is to start chemo. That scares me, because all of you know Im a doer, and chemo puts doing on hold. Still, Im optimistic. God has put me here, and I can rest in that. Right in the middle of the will of the Father is where I want to be, whether it be on stage cutting up with CHQT, writing an English paper at ULL, or fighting Ewing Sarcoma in Memphis, whenever God will use me is where I want to be. Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. (Isaiah 48:17 KJV)
