Last Thursday I had a bone Scan , blood work and an xray!!! I had been having problems with my left leg and Dr. Kendra wanted to make sure it wasn't the Cancer. As I was getting ready for my appt. I looked up in my vanity area and saw this note above where I was sitting, it said this::
Dear Nanny, 1-1-10
I hope you feel better real soon. I will be praying for you. The most important
thing to remember is "God" Is Always With You!!!! I love you soooooo much.
Love,
Julia
Wow, what a reminder when everything inside you wants to go every direction, your mind wants to think
all kinds of thoughts ,and "Fear" wants to creep in and give you the worst case scenerio's. God Is always with you. No matter where you are no matter where you go, He goes with you, He is with you. We were so relieved when all the tests were good. No Cancer in the bones, blood work was great, no bones broken or fractured. My Dr. was very pleased with the progress, especially because I havn't had any chemo or medicine of any kind since March. Now it is August and 2 spots on my chest are getting smaller. I said to her I believe God is answering my prayers, she looked at me and smiled. While I was at the hospital I saw someone I knew
and she was with her mom. Her mom was in a wheel chair and it looked as though she had gone through chemo.
She had a hat on but the lady had the most contagious smile. I asked her later how she kept such an up beat
and postive attitude she said:: I have given it all to God, I know He is with me. What a difference God makes
in our lives. He helps us to face our challanges with a smile on our face because we know He loves us and
is always "With Us"!!!!!!!!
In my journey with cancer I have found it difficult to find encouraging things concerning cancer issues. There were times when I was searching for positive information and wasn't successful. My hope is to help people going through challenging times in their lives by encouraging them to maintain a positive attitude no matter what they are facing <<<<< even >>>>> if it is cancer!!!
Stare at God glance at your problems

Wow, where did this summer go? It really brought things home today when our 4 grandchildren started their 1st day of school. We went over around 7:30 am ( and I am not a morning person ) but my love for them motivates me. I was so thankful to get to see them in their new clothes looking so excited and ready to go. They are such amazing children, I love them so. This morning I read a friends post that talked about Staring at God and Glancing at our problem, (exactly what I needed to hear this morning) This week some of my symptoms have been trying to have me stare at them and FEAR has been trying to get my Full attention. I have been so G-R-A-T-E-F-U-L for every moment of my life these last 6 mos. So many fun family times and special memories. I am thankful to God for being with me encouraging me and giving me the strength
I need. I am refocusing on keeping my eyes on the prize and knowing that "All things work together for good to those who love God and those who are called according to "His purpose" (for us and others). So to all my
friends who will read this post my thought for today is " Stare at God and Glance at your situation". God is well able to do what His word tells us He will do.
