This morning was not going so great. I had a very restless night because the tube attaching my drain pouch to the surgery area under my arm was beginning to come loose and was very uncomfortable and irritating! That is putting it mildly, it just ******** (whatever curse word you want to use) HURT!!! My sister, Angie, the one pictured right above this (older and shorter than me!) was in town for a quick visit and was planning to take me to lunch. When she walked in my bedroom I began to cry because I knew if anyone would understand, she would, because she had breast cancer and a lumpectomy 5 years ago! Much to my surprise, right behind her was our long, lost cousin who is a nurse, (happened to be in town on family business) They both immediately comforted me and Susan, the nurse cousin in the top picture, who just happens to work at a cancer hospital in Oklahoma, fixed up my tube so that I could be comfortable again. And there, once again, the God that I know and trust sent me angels to give me hope, on a day that seemed hopeless. How does He do that, how does he magically respond when we call out His name. More and more deeply I come to love and trust that our God is an awesome God! By the way, Angie just had her checkup and is 5 years cancer free, just like I will be in five years too!
"But angels are only servants. They are spirits sent from God to care for those who will receive salvation."
