All kinds of Good News

My doctor instructed his assistant to call me and tell me "We want you to have a good weekend. You have no signs of cancer.

Thank God.

I do have something on my liver, It appears to be a defect that could be congenital, or who knows what. Only God knows.
However I have lots of questions? I should just accept it but I have an inquiring mind.
OK to give God all the glory.
Here goes.
I had thyroid Cancer. I HAD, operative word there.
The thyroid was removed in two operations in December. In February I had radioactive Iodine therapy. Big Ordeal, Not horrible but it was a big deal for me, I still can eat hot peppers and not get my tongue burned. (burned out my saliva glands, I guess).
Ten Days after therapy I had a Nuclear scan, The scan showed possible, (again Operative word POSSIBLE,)
Cancer cells on my liver, and three or four spots in my lower abdomen.
Of course I was concerned. I did think positive most of the time.
Most of the time I was laughing and telling jokes. Only two days did I actually cry.

The Scan! Only thyroid cells soak up Iodine (Only ones in the body that will.)
My doctor said, "I have never seen thyroid cells on the liver or like that, I want more testing".
Again concerned but I am still OK with it. I am just tired of no answers.
Remember this started in November.
This week I had two days of body MRI's. I asked to see the scans.
What good did it do? I did not know what I was looking at. It just looked like a healthy insides to me.
On Friday the office called, with the news to have a good weekend. No cancer was found.
I have Some weird abnormality but I will find more about that later.
In reading about this abnormality I have had the symptoms for three years, nausea, overstuffed feeling, inability to eat, (not hungry a lot of times) You name the symptom I had it,and brushed it aside as stress.

So how did God get involved in this?
One, Thyroid cells only soak up Iodine. Only cells programmed to take iodine.
However this thing soaked up Iodine Radiation.
How to they treat this thing? Radiation!!!!!
Do I believe these cells are dying? Yes I DO>>>

I do believe that.
I do believe in a Great Big God that can do the seemingly impossible.
Things Doctors say can't happen, Do Happen. Will happen, With prayer all things are possible.
God has a time for all of us, it was just not my time.
We have a lot to do before I am ready, I have two more quilts to make.
Plus lots of hugs to give and get.
