A Month

Today has been a month. A month since our world was rocked. It's been a long month. A very long month! A month since "the spots" were known to us.

Thankfully they have been known to the One in Control from before they ever began. He knew the journey we would be on. He knows why we are going through this. He knows how it will glorify Him and refine us. He knows the outcome. So we have to work the process and fight to kick cancer's butt. Knowing that in the end He will be victorious! He will reign supreme forever over our lives, our circumstances. 

Today we found out that there was not enough sample in the biopsy from yesterday. This is to finish qualifying him for the backup treatment, ACTolog trial... needless to say we are frustrated. 

So we will be down at MDA on Wednesday for the THIRD biopsy of Mooney... at the same time the results should be back from one final test on the sample from the first biopsy on April 11, to be able to start the ipi/nivo treatment we have been trying to start since we got the formal diagnosis. 

I know I called him a unicorn. And he is. He is one of those one in a million guys. I was so blessed that the Lord brought him into my life when I was 20. And if you know the circumstances as to how we met, you know what a testimony to The Lord it is. I'm honored to be his wife and am so grateful for how Alan has led our house, leading us as The Lord has called. Alan is an incredible father. He shows our girls how they should be treated by taking them on regular dates. He loves them so much. 

A month without treatment is driving this wife crazy. It's hard not to imagine and worry over how much it may have spread or grown in the last month. Patience has never been my strong suit. Please pray that everything starts moving at a faster pace. Pray for the ipi/nivo treatments to work. 

Thank you for walking this journey with us.
