Three more months have come and gone, and a beautiful three months they have been. We got home last night from a week at the beach (Little P was so excited to see us that she stayed up 'til 3am just to play - what a sweetheart!). Now it's back to the real world - a world that, unfortunately, includes doctors' visits and CT scans and chemo rooms. A world that, fortunately, is only temporary.
It's time for another CT scan for my mom. Tomorrow morning she'll have a scan (as well as blood work) to check for any signs of cancer recurrence in her body. We pray for another good report, but we're very aware - as we are on every scan day - that tomorrow could bring news we don't want to hear. [Oh, by the way, I. hate. scandays.] Trish is feeling great, though! She said a few days ago that this has been her favorite summer ever. We are blessed.
As usual, we'd appreciate your prayers . . . for a scan that's all clear, for normal tumor markers, for peace that passes understanding, for trust that seems crazy, for God's glory to be revealed. As usual, I know I don't even have to ask. After all, it's a Monday anyway. :-)
I'll update tomorrow.
p.s. If you've ever wanted to meet our favorite oncologist, Dr. T, check out this video. He's recently appeared on two episodes of the Lifetime morning show, The Balancing Act (you can find the other video if you search "breast cancer" on the site). What I'm trying to say is, we'll be hanging out with a celebrity tomorrow. I'll try to get you an autograph.
