Touchbase...

Today is the day HE has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!

Happy day everyone!!! Not much to report...which is a good thing I suppose!!

I continue my journey everyday.....optimistically guarded...if that makes any sense. I had grown so accustomed to the 'support' of chemotherapy and it's destruction of the cancer cells. Not having that chemical 'support' anymore (it's been 6 weeks since my last treatment) can make a person feel somewhat vulnerable as every little ache, pain, twinge makes your mind unsettled. HOWEVER....I firmly and unconditionally believe that the 'artificial' support of chemotherapy is no comparison to the 'authentic' support of GOD in my life. HE is the source that has healed me.

Your prayer offerings and support bring all of us to the truth that GOD is awesome, compassionate and the center of all things. That through HIM, we are truly blessed and carried everyday. I am thankful that GOD has used me and given me the opportunity to reach out to others who are struggling with some sort of challenge in their life...it feels wonderful to be able to give back in some small way. If I have touched at least one person through my journey, GOD has made an impact!

I am feeling great. Life is good.

Where have you seen GOD today?

Peace,
Sandy

Latest MRI Results

Never give up hope. God has done great things for me.

Had my oncologist appointment on Monday, 2/28. Blood counts look Good!...... MRI results look GOod!...... don't have to see him again for 2 months.....GOOd!......Feeling good.....GOOD!!!

I sent a CD of my MRI images down to Duke because, of course, they want to reveiw them as well. Got a phone call yesterday from them and they too say it looks "Stable".....GOOD!! My next appointment with them is May 9th!! We are now officially in "symptom monitor mode". My next MRI is scheduled for the end of April.

It seems as though my life is falling back into place. I know GOD will carry me as I continue this journey, treatment free. Our prayers now turn to this cancer NOT returning. Can we be anymore grateful for the blessings we receive?
I THINK NOT!!

We have witnessed the healing power of GOD.
I will stay in touch.
Peace,

Sandy
