On Tuesday October 11, 2011 Leanne (Chin) was diagnosed with breast cancer. This blog will follow her journey. It will share the peaks and valleys along the way. But it will also serve as a way to communicate prayer requests and praises. Join us as we partner with Chin and fight along side her for she "...can do all things through Christ who strengthens her." Phil. 4:13

The meaning behind Chin ... There is a Chinese restaurant in the Twin Cities named Leann Chin. While Leanne was attending a basketball camp in middle school, a fellow camper had a bag from the restaurant. This camper made the connection between the name of the restaurant and Leanne's name. And the nickname Chin stuck!

Chemo #12

After enjoying a week off from chemo last week, it was time for Leanne to resume her chemo schedule. She had an appointment with her Nurse Practicioner and things are still going well. They talked about her upcoming surgery and have tentatively talked about doing it in November. But, nothing is set in stone. Leanne's blood pressure was high both times they took it today. It is possible one of the medications could be contributing to the high blood pressure, but there is a lot happening in our family right now, which could also be the culprit.

My mom went to chemo with Leanne today while Crystal stayed home with Leo this afternoon. Thanks Crystal!

 

Leanne was busy at chemo today! Lots of FaceTiming!! First was Mollie and I.

   

Next up was Carter and Danielle

   

Then Tim and Carter took a turn! Crosby was there too, she must have been busy evading the camera.

   

Please keep Leanne in your prayers. Here are some specifics:
  • Pray for Leanne's blood pressure to lower itself
  • Minimal side effects from the chemo 
  • The numbness in her fingers and toes not to spread any further
  • Maximum effectiveness of the chemo so that these next 5 treatments would be the last ones
  • Clarity for the Dr's as they continue to make plans regarding Leanne's future treatment
  • Peace for Leanne and our family 
  • Strength and endurance for Leanne in the remaining 5 chemo treatments
If you ever have any questions about our faith and would like more info, please email us at teamchinny@gmail.com and we would love to talk more.
