I thought tomorrow would never come, but it does. Tomorrow always comes for the lucky ones. I just read a quote that a doctor gave a woman with cancer 30 days to live...she replied 'Well that's great doc, God only gives me a day at a time!' I loved it! :) And it is so true, we are uncertain of the days we have, so my advice is simple....forget the troubles of yesterday, love your life today, and be grateful for the future to try again (because it can really hold anything!!)
But tomorrow has come and I'm going into my oncology appointment optimistic. I know that I have HL. Now it's time to set up a game plan. My prayer is that we can all agree on the right treatment to cure this cancer...and that the doctor doesn't get fed up with all my questions cause I have a ton! I'm nervous because I do not know what the future holds, however do any of us know what the future holds? I cling to the verse in the Bible 'So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.' Isaiah 41:10. Honestly, this is not the worst thing that can happen, and although I'm nervous about what my future holds, I'm so grateful that I will come out of that appointment tomorrow with so many ANSWERS to my future! How lucky am I?!?
I'll let you know what the doc says...TOMORROW!!
First and foremost, you know I'm praying for you.
ReplyDeleteYour optimism is amazing!! I love it!!
I know it's been YEARS since we've seen each other or even talked, but know that you're on my mind alot. Actually, I had a dream about you last night (and other people I haven't seen in awhile). Made me smile though.
Best of luck Laura! I will be keeping you in my prayers as I know we are both not going through the greatest of times right now! Stay strong sister.
