Day 47

Kirk's Fun Fact About Sarah:
"Sarah's taste buds have changed. She thinks it's a nationwide conspiracy that all food manufacturers have changed their recipes (in her opinion...for the worst). Sarah never trusts that food isn't just tasting different, and she always makes one of her family members taste the food to tell her that it really tastes normal.
 

It turns out, one of the items that Sarah can no longer taste is basil. This might seem like an obscure ingredient to some of you, however it just so happens to be the main flavor component of two of her favorite things. Bruschetta and Pesto Pasta. So, when Sarah's brain is craving just one delicious mouthful, she knows that those cravings can never be satisfied. All I can say is, after this chemo is over, I can already see that we will have to hire an Italian chef to incorporate basil into every meal.

Thank you for all your prayers! Sarah's strength has really risen. Please pray that she is able to enjoy the rest of the second and third week before her body gets hit again."

Sarah and Kirk,
My coworker Kathy at Providence Pediatrics told me about your beautiful blog. Kathy has met Sarah at the 5th Avenue play dinners with her mom. I also have known Sarah's mom for many years through Providence and at Everett High School. I heard about your story and am keeping you in my prayers. What a wonderful story of hope and faith. I was surprised to see a picture of my cousin Kristi Vitale on your blog. What a small world it is!! She is an exceptional massage therapist and a beautiful person. I am so glad you found her! Best of everything as you continue on this journey. Be strong in your faith. Diane Cruikshank

The very heart of your writing shilst sounding agreeable at first, did not settle very well with me personally after some time. Someplace within the paragraphs you were able to make me a believer but just for a while. I nevertheless have a problem with your leaps in assumptions and one would do well to fill in those breaks. In the event you actually can accomplish that, I will definitely end up being fascinated.
Its such as you learn my thoughts! You seem to grasp so much approximately this, such as you wrote the ebook in it or something. I think that you simply can do with some% to force the massage house a bit, however other than that this is magnificent blog. An excellent read. I will certainly be back.
