My story

I was diagnosed with stage 3B Lobular Carcinoma with lymph node involvement on April 1, 2008. A swollen lymph node under my arm was my only symptom. Nothing was shown on my mamogram the day I was diagnosed. An ultrasound showed a 8cm long mass. I endured grueling rounds of chemotherapy, radiation and surgeries. By the love of my family and friends and my faith in God, I made it through with a new appreciation of life!

Bubbles

The trials of the past few days have passed. I have been praying that God would help me to know that the chemo was really disolving my cancer cells. As I sat in the jacuzzi tonight without the jets, I noticed something beautiful. The little bubbles that form on the surface as the water shoots out collect in random shapes and move quickly across the water. To me, these were my cancer cells collecting so intently. Amazingly, God's light shown where the bubbles vanished before they hit anything. I sat and marveled at these silly bubbles that nobody ever pays attention to and how I really connected to them at this time. To some it may seem that I have an active imagination (yes, I often do). Yet others may understand that God allows us to view the smallest things as glimpses into His inner world. It was truely a WOW moment for me. Thanks be to God:)

How amazing! When I pray for you, I picture God's light beaming through your body, killing and removing those cancer cells. How wonderful that you were able get a visual confirmation of what is taking place.
God Bless,
