Today I had physical therapy and Don said I made great progress. I surprised myself in the exercises I struggled with less than a week ago that I can now do. Praise God! Im getting stronger each day. Recovery from the surgery is going well. God has used each of you to help carry me and get me to this point. We are so overwhelmed by all the love you have shown our family. I can not thank you enough.
I also received a call from Jen (Nurse Navigator). She told me the results of my PET scan. The PET scan showed no cancer. Damien and I thought this was wonderful news. She informed us that it is good that it is not a large mass but that it is bad that we still dont know the source or type of cancer. We need to pray the guardant blood test and biopsy results come quickly and have clear results. Mayo clinic biopsy can take up to 6 weeks, but mainly they take 2 weeks. The blood test takes about 2 weeks as well. I’m praying we receive the blood test by Friday and the Mayo clinic results early next week. This news does help me be more hopeful. I know it is not large and it is not all over my body. Jesus, I trust in you. Please help me trust you more. I have been offering up my suffering for all of you, my family and friends. Now we wait and pray more.
Jen made appointments with the radiation doctor for a consult for Gamma Knife radiation on Nov.6th and if we decide to move forward with it, the radiation will be on Nov. 13th. Im praying for God’s guidance. Mother Mary wrap me in your mantle of protection. I pray God uses this suffering to help me become a better servant and witness to Him, a better wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend. Lord have mercy on me a sinner. Help me to show your love, do your Will, and sin no more.

Psalm 86:3-6
