09/22/2010 Update on Stephanie
I came out to the blog to update those non-Facebook folks following Stephanie's fight with breast cancer and realized that it has been a long time since my last update. Not only that, but the last post was a pretty rough time for Stephanie and me.
Well, the good news is back. Since the last post, Stephanie has started chemo and we have seen some miraculous changes. The story is long and I will shorten it here. We went to review here latest PET scan with her doctor today. He read through the medical verbiage that was quite lengthy and incomprehensible, paused, looked up at Steph and said, "Looks like you are officially in remission."
The only way to explain what has happened, between my last post in May until today, is that God chose to heal Stephanie for her faithfulness. Jesus said in Mark 5:34, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering." There is a lot to be said for believing in your heart and praying expectantly. We serve an amazing God, there is no doubt! All it takes is the amount of faith equal to that of a mustard seed. And that isn't a lot!
Stephanie will continue to run through a few more treatments of the IV chemo, then reduce that to just the oral form. We will be transitioning our diet and increasing the exercise as the long-term strategy for healthy living. I do expect to begin to document in blog posts some of the things we are doing to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Hopefully, there will be value for all who read it!
God bless you all!!!
