“So I went home and I thought, ‘Wow, chemotherapy. They’re going to hook me up into stuff.’ And, wow, you talk about the nausea, the dizziness, and like I said, after the first day, I don’t get back to regular until maybe about the fifth or sixth day. The first three or four days I’m throwing up, I’m dizzy, I couldn’t sleep, and I spit more. I slept mostly in a chair or on the couch because I was afraid to lay down because if I lay down I thought I might throw up in my sleep and drown or whatever, you know.”
Life is an endurance test. It’s not a fifty-yard sprint or a hundred-yard dash; it’s a marathon. So, like I said, I got to endure, endure the hardship. The Bible said, ‘Endure hardship as a good soldier.’ There, you endure hardship, then you fall back to your fighting stance. So, okay, am I going to be a wimp and cry and what-not, or you know am I going to fight it and what-not – and cry? It’s okay to cry as long as you fighting. But don’t be crying, ‘Oh woe me, what am I going to do?'”

“Like David wrote, he said ‘The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.’ And then in another part he said, ‘Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil.’ And that’s what keeps me strong and that’s what I tell other cancer patients. We’re going through a valley of a shadow of death, but the key here is we’re going through there. Through is the key word. We’re not going in a cave that don’t have an outlet. See we’re going through. Through means there’s an exit on the other side. So we’re not going to stay there.”
