Why Blog

Whenever I read a blog, I savor each word. Each joke, I laugh whole hearted. Each photo I cherish, Each minute I spend on your blogs I spend with you.
You give me hope and laughter and Love.
So BLOG!!
My daughter has put a snag on her blog for me, It is Pigpen, LOL. A little kid with dirt flying all around him. That is me in the summer. I am coated with fresh dirt and in doing all that, I am getting exfoliated.

So the latest announcement is now up for viewing.
I had a body scan on Friday, I looked at the monitor and (being the smart gal I am) I knew it was not normal. After all how many people have little flashlights in their belly area? I do, I had several. Maybe 4 or so. Not sure it even matters how many, just there.
The reason for the scan. On the 10th I was given a dose of Radioactive Iodine. If any thyroid cells remained in my body, they would soak up the Iodine. Well, as we know, Thyroid cells do not belong on your liver. Or in your abdomen.
I knew from the onset that much. I also knew I had a Lymph Node with cancer cells on it. I knew it was removed. I knew being in lymph nodes with abnormal cells were not good.
However I believed it was still OK. And it is still OK.
On Monday they took me back for more scans to see if the little lights had moved around. NOPE. still there, waiting to be ate up by the radiation. (which I believe will or can happen.)

So the THEORY OF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!!!
Next I have a protein test and a CT scan. Not sure when all that takes place. Soon I am sure.
They are so amazed at the cells that showed up there in my body. They have to call the whole staff in to look at them. NO KIDDING. I never do anything normal.
Wanna see something weird just scan my entire body, I am surprised my heart is in the right place. Oh Wait, It isn't. My ribs are wired shut holding it in.
I am confident I am going to be OK. Regardless I am OK.
I Love my Husband so much, he is my concern. I do not want him to worry or fret, I just want him with me all time.
So we MUST get this house sold and settled before they begin using me as a Guinea pig. (not gonna happen, Guinea pig that is)


You talk about prayer!!!
My sister just called. After we talked a while ago she immediately called her son, Raymond, to request prayer. He said, "Mama you will not believe where I am right NOW. I am in a room full of Assembly of God ministers, We will pray".
Now isn't that amazing and wonderful?
I know my son in Seattle belongs to a group called, "Hearts of Faith" (hope I got that right)
It is ministry to prisoners. They write letters and pray with these men or women. These men are prayers. They are praying for me. I found that so refreshing. Someone in the worse of situations can think of someone else.
How Great is our God?? There are no words to express it. No mountain high enough to shout from, NO valley too low to reach.
I know it only takes the prayer and faith of one but sometime God puts us in a situation to help others. I feel I am in that situation. I want this to be a witness to someone else spirit and heart.

Never Never Never lose Faith, Hope or Love.
I won't.

Remember me with smiles and laughter as I remember you all,
If you must remember me with tears, Please don't remember me at all.
And I am not being fatalistic I am being realistic.
