I'm jumping in a little late here, so I can't read all 1,027 pages in this thread. But from my understanding, our dear member Blooie is the one with returned leukemia?
I also feel a little at a loss for words, but thought I could at least leave a positive message and uplifting picture.
I realize, that anyone in your shoes, (Facing leukemia or cancer of any kind) very likely has an appreciation for each breath, each ray of sunshine, each morning they live through that the rest of the world is taking for granted. You probably realize more than anyone, how much of a gift each day is.
Also attached is my painting of a gryphon, named Malachi. Like one of the Lord's guardian angels, he will be with you.
My Refuge and My Fortress
Psalm 91 1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

this is a great thread for some encouragement and prayers thank you for your insight
We've made it through another week! Hoping everyone has a blessed weekend. Think of and pray for you all daily, even if I don't know your specific needs, He does, so I lift you up to him!
A couple of funny/cute photos of a chick I hatched with a piece of shell that stuck to its head, and a couple of hens that just started laying, and, I figured would lay in the nest box together, but really?? I stood there long enough to hear the top girl's egg hit the nest door..clunk..didn't break though..this time.
Praying for those in need. I hope summer is as enjoyable as possible. Went up our favorite canyon. So beautiful. Wasn't able to do the hike I normally do up there, but had kids and grandkids there camping..so, very enjoyable visiting.
