I drove into
Seattle today to Cancer Care Alliance for my first mammogram since my breast cancer
journey began. I had the dreaded mammogram
and was sent to the dressing room to wait for the radiologist to review
everything. The nurse came back to my room and told me the doctor wanted to
take more pictures! That's when the fear
rushed in! I was suddenly reliving 5 1/2
months ago when during a routine mammogram I was told the very same thing - the
doctor wanted more pictures - which eventually
led to discovering a mass.
So now here I
was hearing it again. Another mammogram was
taken and then the wait. After what
seemed like forever the doctor came in and said the most beautiful words in the universe - all is NORMAL!! I was so relieved!
Why the Lord doesn't just make things simple
and easy I don't know! I guess He's
always testing, stretching and strengthening
our faith to trust Him. Sometimes I do
well - sometimes I don't - but I'm trying! Whatever His reasons - I'm just so thankful
and happy I am cancer free! Wahoo!!
