In the middle of the storm I confess peace

In the middle of the storm I confess peace

Some of you have asked, why I have not blogged lately. This is a waiting period for me, (2 weeks).

I have met with the radiation and chemo medical team.  I recently had an Ecotype DX test done. This test is a genomic test that analyzes the activity of a group of genes that can affect how a cancer is likely to behave and respond to treatment. The results of the Ecotype DX test, combined with other features of the cancer, can help me make a more informed decision about whether or not to have chemotherapy to treat early-stage hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer or radiation therapy.

I continue to be overwhelmed with your love and support. Thank you Kim Cheiken, (my lawyer friend who took excellent notes) and for driving me to Mayo for this important consultation.

I received beautiful flowers from a former student and his family. This touched my heart.

My gratitude to Switzerland Community Church-Sunday class for your generosity in providing meals for my family during this week, Terry Sharkey, Connie Davis and Nancy Justus. May God bless you seven times more.

Thank you Janet Robles for your continued support of love, more flowers and meals. (My biology-guru and researcher).

Cards continue to arrive, and I must admit I’m loving it. Moments like these, it is therapy for me to read the messages, and feel your love! I received your cards Ann Breidstein, Sonja Willets and Jessica McQuaig who gave me pink gifts! xxoo

For now, I covet your prayers for God’s Will. I pray for peace not only for me, but for all those affected by this interruption in my lie. It is easy to pray during difficult times; it is not easy to praise in darkness. To believe what you don’t see is faith; continuing to see “that” which is not there is faith. I choose to stay faithful. I choose to praise my God!

Blessings,
