Lot's of Appointments!

Upon the inital diagnosis, amidst the shock we went into action. I hasten to add I had no idea what to do! God's grace was totally sufficient. Having no experience in something so overwhelming, we were blessed again and again by God as He lovingly kept us focused on Him. Waves of emotions were flooding in - and several leads. A "war room" of sorts was set up in the kitchen and the phone calls started.

Getting to see the surgeons on my list was not easy. Most would not see us for at least nine days. Meanwhile, Jody and I decided that no matter what course of action we pursued, it would be wise to build up her immune system. Our dear friend Logan (a cancer survivor) emptied our kitchen, our cabinets, and refilled them with every green leafy thing ever grown :-) and helped us switch over to gentler detergents for use in the home. She was also instrumental in exposing us to the world of complimentary therapies and doctors that helped her in her own cancer battle.

2Cor. 12:9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
