It’s been awhile… I know. But we’re still here and plugging along. I’m sitting here at my doc appt for today and realizing there’s so much to be grateful for. I’m sitting next to a sweet momma of three who just found out she has stage 4 metastisized cancer… she’s desperate for healing and in shock. You can see the hurt on her beautiful face and the weariness marks her every step. Please pray for these people that I meet each day… they need healing, they need to know Jesus, they are absolutely precious and I cherish these days we share stories, tears and laughter!
I, too have been struggling. May 19th I didn’t think I’d make it through the night. I had alarming lab results and was plummeting faster than I knew was possible. Prayer chains started and texts went out that night. A dear friend found a clinic that looked promising and I committed to calling first thing in the morning. Every clinic I had called said that the wait would be at least 8-12 weeks just to be seen and I didn’t have time on my side. I called this last doctor and shared my lab results with the lady who answered the phone… she literally said “Sweetie, you cannot survive like that… come in right now.” Tears streaming down my face, I agreed and still in shock; Cory and I hopped in the car and ran to see this new doctor. He immediately got to work and I’ve been making positive strides each day. It’s a slow and steady battle, but one we’re having to take on every day to keep me alive and able to fight this disease head on.
Doctor T is known across the globe for helping people in intense ways and often as their last resort that they end up wishing was their first😬. I’ve been seeing him up to six days a week since May 20th and as I sit here right now… I’m reminded just how good our Great God is that He would have us in this place and use prayers, family and friends to find this doctor, that he would see me the same day, and keep me alive. He’s always got my back. He hears my prayers and He’s been carrying me through this season when I couldn’t walk through it on my own.
Cory and my kiddos are being so strong and pressing on with me away each day, and yesterday I wanted time with the kids, so we all sat in the IV room together and talked. We’ve learned to make memories in doctors appointments as well as the beach, we’ve learned that there is no time Luke the moment we’re in NOW to tell each other how much they mean to us, and we’re resting in Gods perfect plans for what our tomorrows bring!
We need prayers for healing, financial provision, strength, perseverance, and patience
Thank you for loving our family and praying us through this journey!
