Today was a good day. Fantastic, actually. I spent it at UAB--not my place of choice, but I received really good news. Neal and I had to be at the Kirklin Clinic by 8:00 for my MRI, followed by blood work, and two different doctor appointments. No, that doesn't sound like a wonderful day, but the final results made it a great day. I saw my breast cancer specialist first. She didn't order the MRI but said she had reviewed it and it looked good to her--no new lesions and everything's stable. She said she had been really worried about me for a while but is extremely happy with how things are going now. Next, I saw my brain cancer specialist. He entered the room and gave me a hug. He's amazed. He said, "I've never had a patient do this well for this long after brain metastasis. You're a miracle."
Yes. God is in the miracle business. I know my faith in Him is key to my recovery. He's the Great Physician and will heal me one way or another. As a matter of fact, I'm already healed. I already have eternal life with Him. Cancer has nothing on my God! I know too that He listens to the prayers of His saints. That's all of you guys! You've faithfully prayed for me and I can't even begin to thank you enough. One day, according to Revelation 5:8, you'll see how He has collected all your prayers like we collect artwork from our kids and grandkids.
On another note, we rescued a dog! Her name is Maggie, and she's already spoiled. Although I love dogs, I was really hesitant about getting one because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to give her the attention she needs when Neal isn't home. However, four years ago, Rachel got a dog that we kept a lot and I realized that I could. We don't keep Josie much any more and Rachel really encouraged me to get one of my own. She's been so good for me! And yes, I love her to pieces. Check out the pics.
