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 #4

Praise the Lord!! Leanne's counts were high enough to have chemo today!!!!!!! She had an appointment with Katie, one of Dr. Bloom's nurse practitioner's, before chemo. Katie said the lymph node in her neck is continuing to get smaller!!!! They also decided to lower the dosage of one of the chemo meds because the toxicity of the chemo outweighs the benefits. While Ryan went to chemo with Leanne, they didn't get a picture together. And we were the lucky ones who were able to Face Time with Leanne.

   

Thanks so much to all who prayed for high counts today!! Please keep praying specifically for:
  • Health and energy to fill the Miller household
  • Good, restful sleep for Leanne, Ryan, and Leo
  • Wisdom for Dr. Bloom as he makes decisions about meds
  • Correct dosages for pain meds to be figured out
  • Maximum effectiveness of the chemo meds for Leanne
  • Minimal side effects from the chemo
  • Strength for Ryan as he leads his family
  • Strength for Leanne as she continues to fight
  • Stamina for Ryan as he balances work, taking care of his family, and taking care of himself
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.
