Learn from your experiences, right? So one month into my life as a person with a little cancer, what have I learned? I have learned to love my life, I have learned that bad things can happen to you, and I have learned that you have to trust God. God is the only one that knows the bigger plan, so praying has to be at the top of the priority list every day. I cannot take back the behavior of the past and I cannot change the cells in my neck, but I can take a really really big look at my life and know that I will be ok. This has to include dying, and that dying is ok. I just don't want to die this year, or even for many many years. When I do die, I want to know that God will take care of me. I want to know that my children will have a faith in God and that God will be there to take care of them.
Why did I get a little bit of cancer? I guess I will never know the answer to that, but I know that I will not forget the sleepless nights between CT scans and chest xrays or the days when I was sure that my headache is a brain tumor. I know that there is a purpose for my life and that God has given me a life for a purpose.
Was my diagnosis a miracle of God? I have to think that it is. God intervened and I went to the Dr. for a sore throat, and that sore throat was my miracle that cancer was in my body. Without that sore throat, the cancer would continue to invade and my body would have evetually surrendered.
