Birthday man turned 44 today! I made a high protein, low carb cake out of coconut flour and flax meal. It contained 10 eggs! And chocolate. It was sweetened with erythritol and stevia. One of Wes' medications has evil effects on his blood sugar, so other than a bit of fruit and the occasional portion of prunes, he is avoiding sugar. The cake was popular with everyone in the family, which was a nice surprise. And since it is not loaded with sugar and carbs, it will make a nice breakfast! Here are some pictures:
Prayers are certainly appreciated. Right on schedule, Wes is starting to experience some of the side effects from his chemo. He can't go very long with an empty stomach now, without experiencing an uncomfortable gut clenching sensation. And the hair loss: That has begun and is progressing. Please pray that God would grant Wes the ability to keep working through this round of chemotherapy and radiation, which will last until near the end of January.
