Update on numbers!

I saw the oncologist on May 20th and they checked the tumor marker number as well as the estrogen level.  With the holiday last week I gave them some extra time to get in touch with me but didn't hear back from them. (figured it was a good sign, and besides, both the oncologist and I were sure that the numbers had gone down since the tumor size had actually decreased as well.)  God is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G

I finally called to ask what the actual results were.  PRAISE GOD!!! we were right!  The last tumor marker # just before the hysterectomy surgery for April was 402.  The one for May was 275. Whoot whoot!  And the estrogen level was down below 10 which is also good! :)

Since being diagnosed at the end of Oct 2013 I have changed how I get out of bed in the morning.  Our bed frame is high so when I sit up, I can't touch the floor.  So before I set my feet on the floor, I pray to God thanking him that he has healed me, that he has taken any pain away, that I will allow him to guide my day, to make the day purposeful, and I've added for him to help me have grace for others.  This prayer changes a little each day as I grow in Jesus but I like that even if I am running a little behind schedule, I have not allowed it to be an option to skip this muy importante (that's very important) part of my day!  It sets the rest of my day in the right direction.  You should try it if you don't already.  It's worth it to fix one's eyes on Jesus.
