Today was a very good day. Even though they told mom she could be around me and Haidyn after yesterday she still wanted us to wait. Hopefully we will be able to see her tomorrow. She is feeling better as well so we want to wait till she is feeling more like herself.
We got very good news today. She went and had the stiches removed from her ribs at the doctor's office. She and Ken went back to the West Clinic for them to draw another tube of blood from her and give her some prescriptions. Her doctor got the PETscan results and there were no suprises. Praise God!! There was something on the ribs right at the lungs which they suspected but nothing in any other organs. They will just mark that and track it because it does not effect the chemo treatment at all. I can't tell you what a relief it is to get this incredibly good news. Not knowing was the worse. The worst is behind us. Now we are ready to get this party started as mom says.
I have put my faith in God since the breaking of this news and I trust the doctors are telling us all we need to know. I am not researching any of this, just walking by faith that God will heal my mom through the power of the thousands of prayers that you are lifting up to him. So far, God has given us the best possible outlook on this situation and for that I know we are truly blessed. Thank you all for the comments, prayers, food, and all the special ways you all are supporting and encouraging mom. Today was a good day! Thank God for the peace we will all have as we lay our heads down tonight.
