Lisa's Journal

I want to keep everyone up-to-date on what is going on in my life and how they can specifically pray for me. I was recently diagnosed with tonsil cancer and will soon be receiving treatment. I plan to go to U of M for treatment. Please pray for courage, strength and for me to hear God's voice.

12-13-06

Just wanted to let everyone know I am doing well. We have all battled the stomach flu over Thanksgiving and now we all have colds. Hard to keep a completely healthy family when one is always sick!!

I am enjoying the holiday season. What a wonderful time to reflect on this year's blessings. The gifts that God has already given me is overwhelming. I am very focused on a good outcome for the rest of my test results. I am reading a good and helpful book about the "shadows of cancer". It talks about the aftermath of cancer and how it can sometimes be more difficult than when we go through it. I have had less and less bad days. I am so consumed with the holidays, the girls, extra days at work, that cancer is far removed from my mind. I remind myself that God's will was to heal me.................so how can I question HIM?

I will see my local ENT 12-21-06 and have another CT scan the end of January. I am confident they will find nothing. I will continue to keep this journal updated, but probably now once a month.

To all that are still reading this........Merry Christmas. May God richly bless you this upcoming year.
