Peaceful Prayers

It's a Scan Week... we can hardly believe it's been 3 months.

For the first time, EVER, in this journey, I am optimistic about this scan. I'm more than optimistic... I'm actually hopeful! 

Thanks be to God for the peace He has given. Thank you Lord for being a Healing God. Thank you Father for loving us even when we are unloveable. Thank you God for being a God of hope, grace and mercy. Thank you Christ for saving us!

We are walking into this week with 3 positive scans behind us. I am fully expecting a STABLE scan. 

A year ago yesterday, Alan had his first treatment, and we received the devastating news that a third tumor had grown during the three months that we had waited for treatment to get started. A year ago to be very blunt, we weren't sure Alan would be here today. 

Today he is here, feeling better than I could have imagined. He is leading our family well. Immunotherapy has been such a blessing from God. It's so different from chemo. The effects have been incredibly mild. And the results have been remarkable. And had it not be for God's hand in our situation, he would not have been on this treatment, and this post would be much different. 

So as we head into Thursday's scan and Friday's results, we covet your prayers for complete healing. We ask for continued peace as we walk through this week. And we praise Him for the positive results He has already given prior to this upcoming scan. We praise Him for what He is continuing to do in our family through this journey. 

Update to come after we get results. 

Thank you for your prayers!
