But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

The Savior teaches us how to feel peace and calm even when the winds blow fiercely around us and billowing waves threaten to sink our hopes.
P9 S3
We testify that those who prayerfully study the message of the Restoration and act in faith will be blessed to gain their own witness of its divinity and of its purpose to prepare the world for the promised Second Coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Today was a bit of a "down" day for me. I always feel a little low and slow after getting my infusion. James and I watched a Hallmark movie together and then read from our book, "Devil's Food Cake."
Before I went to Costco yesterday Trina told me about their delicious chicken street tacos in the ready-made section in the back. I got some and that's what we had for lunch. They were very tasty and all we had to do was heat up the chicken meat and the tortillas.
I did walk today. I also had to strip some of the polish off the wood floor that I put on Saturday and re-apply some more. That took a couple of hours.
James went to the post office and picked up the mail. I got some books and a map of the United States I ordered. It looks nice and fits perfectly on my whiteboard in the bedroom.
I got an updated health report from Kim today. Here it is:
I'm starting to get better. It's been an interesting week. I am at the Vitanya place now. Brian is starting today.
The fact that I was even able to be there on Sunday (Ben's mission report), and that I walked in by myself with no help means that the treatment is going well. I'm so excited. I have so much hope and excitement about it. And Brian got his scan tonight and is starting treatment tonight. I am excited for him too!
Last week when we did the scan I had 51 markers out of 106 that were not working correctly (these are all for sinus/ear/vertigo/vagus nerve, etc.)
This week I had 42 that were out. That means that with 1 week of treatment, 9 of those things are now working the way they should.
Things that have happened this week: the muscles in my neck and shoulder finally released and don't squeeze all the time. The tightness in my head especially at the temples, jaw and behind the left ear has let up a lot. I can breathe a lot easier out of my nose. The ringing in my left ear has died down. I still have it in my right, but it is quieter. No anxiety/panic attack feeling starting in the gut and rushing up to my head. No rise in heart rate and blood pressure for no reason. No migraine with aura at all this week. No squeezing and pain in my temples that makes me feel like it's cutting off oxygen to my brain. No lightheadedness. No feeling like I am going to start spinning at any moment. I can walk by myself without help! I am still a little off balance but it is not the same as the vertigo feeling!
I can sleep on my back again! No sleeping sitting up. I still have to prop up with pillows, but I can put my head down!!!
I left my house for the first time (other than doctor appointments). I was able to go to church and to Sheri's.
I'm so excited. I can't wait to see what this week brings.
We have been praying for Kim for so long now. It is wonderful that she is getting these results so quickly.
Before signing off I just have to say how much I LOVE the air pods that Sheri got me. No more getting the wire to my earphones caught on cabinet pulls!
were in the Chandler 2nd ward
