Just back from biopsy. Was so nervous. Took a pain med when we got there because I knew I'd have to lay on my sharkbite.
Got in. Tech did set up. "I'm nervous" I said. She was so nice, explained things. Took preliminary ultrasound measurements.
Dr came in, told him "I'm scared." I laid there praying, remembering to trust. Dr took up the ultrasound wand to find the spot. "where is it?" he asked... "9:30 and 11, 7cm" said tech. Dr looked again, "where?" Tech said "here, I'll find it"
Me praying that God would give wisdom to this guy... he seemed confused.
Dr. "that's it? That's breast tissue."
Me "what?"
Dr "the radiologist must have been very good, I wouldn't have seen anything"
Me, trying not to burst out praising Jesus as needle was coming at me.
Dr did take three samples (me, "I don't like that" cuz he had to dig to try and find something). He said "the report will say can't rule out cancer because lab doesn't have context. Looking at the ultrasound I can tell you not to lose sleep, it's nothing.
Me, "Nothing nothing?"
Dr, huge smile!
NOTHING NOTHING!!!!
Miracles my friends!!! Miracles!!!
When I was laying there working at calm I saw Jesus standing beside me, not just his presence but him. He was chuckling, just looking at me with a 'I got this, you know it and I know it...' and I smiled. I felt brightened and lifted up. And then "nothing, nothing"!!!!
Seriously!!!!
God, I thank you. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
Celebration cake:
Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.
