It is OFFICIAL! IT IS HERE! HELL WEEK!
Let me just say, it made me smile today when the words out of Dr. Pluards mouth were, "your bloodwork looks good, and we are going to finish (chemotherapy) as scheduled!" WOOHOO!! I get my PET Scan on the 12th of June and have my Dr's appointment the Monday following to find out how well my chemo went. I know that it's working thanks to the prayers of many and the healing hands of the wonderful nurses here at Siteman.
About an hour ago, my nurse came back and asked if she could have a young man who was just diagnosed with testicular cancer come back and talk to me. Of course that was fine. As I shook his hand it occurred to me that I knew this individual from a looonnnggg time ago. It was a man, who's sister I grew up with in grade school at Zion! Small world?...Fate?...God thing...absolutely!
God doesn't give us what we want on a Silver Platter. God gives us opportunities to be the Miracle and to see the Miracle in others. It is your choice to do something with the opportunities he gives us. Sometimes, opportunities don't seem like something positive at all, but it is in those times that God is shining the spotlight on that opportunity so that you can reach out, grab it, and be a Miracle! Sometimes, it's a wave to a neighbor, holding the door open at the gas station, or writing wonderful messages on this blog, whatever it is, others see it, I see it in all of you. You all continue to be in our prayers!
Godspeed-SCHWANK
