Best Bad News

Thank you so much for holding me up yesterday while I was waiting for
the phone call.  It never came throughout the day and at 9:30 p.m., I
sent an email to my doctor, asking if anyone had had a chance to review the scans yet and then I went to bed.  I am sleeping reasonably well, although, I do wake frequently due to changing positions and needing to be careful in doing so with my neck brace.

At 1:00 a.m., I woke up and checked email.  My doctor has been known
to send emails at 11:00 p.m. and sure enough, she had answered me at 10:20 p.m. 

There are no other sites of disease except for the bones!  Praise God! 
While my prayer was for no cancer at all, I am accepting this news with a
grateful heart. 

We will be charging full speed ahead on getting radiation started immediately.  I'm still not sure where I'll be having radiation . . . either San Francisco or Palo Alto.  I should also be starting a couple of medications very soon as well that will help build bone strength.

My devotion this morning (from "In the Shadow of His Wings") had this verse:  "After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire.  And after the fire came a gentle whisper."  1 Kings 19:12.  May we all listen for God's gentle whisper as we travel through this journey.  His hand IS at work, one way or another. 

Much love,
Vickie

    God's Story

    _I believe we all have a story. This blog records my story and how I've lived with breast cancer both as a primary disease and a terminal disease.  I believe this is all a part of God's story for my life. This blog unapologetically includes all areas of my life: my faith, my family and my advocacy for change in the metastatic breast cancer world.
