Great News

I had my CT scan yesterday to check on a nodule in my left lung that showed up during a test on one of my ER visits. Today I got a call from Fiona who is Dr Schwab's right hand nurse. She said she had good news for me. The CT scan showed that the nodule had been "resolved" so we have do not have that worry any longer. The blood clot in my lung was "resolved" as well. She was elated so I knew right away that I had nothing to worry about. I told her it was answer to prayer. God is good. A little breathing room is a good thing to have right now.

Today I attended bible study this morning and this afternoon my friend Summer came over to visit and was here when I got my good news. We went out for a sorbet to celebrate. She was as happy as Rick and I were to hear the news.

Rick and I went out this evening to a nice Italian resturant for dinner to celebrate. Afterward we went over to our neighbor and my "Sister of the heart" Barbara's house and visited with her and her friend Jim who is recovering from hernia surgery. She teases that she is Nurse Ratchet. He is blessed to have her to take care of him.

I have an appointment with the radiology oncologist on Monday to set up a schedule to start the radiation part of my treatment. I am ready to take on this next step with God's provision for me. One of the squares on my scripture quilt says simply "Kathy, Relax, I have everything under control. Signed Jesus"

Just wanted to pass along this great news to you all and I will be making a post after my appointment on Monday.

As I always say I am in His Awesome Grip,
Kathy
