Thanksgiving

This has been a stressful week, but, today, I received the good news that the CT scan must have been mistaken, because the second PET scan in a row has showed no cancer and my blood markers are fine. So, I am officially off the immunotherapy and no plans for a hysterectomy. I will be seeing the doctor in a month and taking another cancer marker blood test. If my numbers go up, I will restart the immunotherapy. Now, I just need to recover from the cure. LOL!

I posted this poem a while back, but thought it was appropriate to repost it now. It is based on Psalm 119:143-152.

Peace and Rest

Things may look bleak, dark, distressing,
All beyond our control,
But my delight in Your Law and Your Word
Lights the expanse of my soul.

Your Holy Word is eternal and sure,
Make me to know it and live.
I ask You, I beg You, I cry to You, Help
Me take of the hope that You give.

The world twists and tumbles around me,
Enmeshed in all wickedness.
But, with You, O Lord of hosts, my God
There is surely peace and rest.
