"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
Well its been a week now, hard to believe. And I still haven't seen an oncology doctor...or any doctor for that matter! But the week has been full of peace and prayer. And I am feeling great about this new journey. We still haven't told the kids yet...not sure what we will tell them. But since the cancer is at such an early stage, it seems pointless to be anything but vague so that we don't scare them. Because we all know that anytime you hear the word "cancer" its sounds scary. I just don't want Brayden to hear it from someone else. So pray for us to have the right words when it comes to talking to both of them!
I have had some great conversations with some "survivors" that have imparted lots of wisdom on me and feel very prepared for my upcoming meetings with my radiation oncologist and surgeon. It is funny how God puts people in your path that can help you during these time. I am very blessed!
So I don't have lots of news...next week will be different! But I feel God working through me every day and I am so greatful to be walking down this path.

Hello Amanda, We are so thankful to God that your doing Good and the cancer is curable all of us have a road to take but only through our Lord Jesus do we find true peace and joy that unbelievers dont have. Uncle Bill and I are keeping you in our prayers dailing. Psalm 91, He who dwells in the shelter of the most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust." All of Psalm 91 is good to medatate on. We Send or Love, Uncle Bill and Aunt Cindy.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you needed this week to just "be" without the stress of meeting with doctors. It sounds like you have used the time to continue to build your strength. I'm thinking of you!
