I am sure that you remember watching television and your program was interrupted by that irritating noise and the message that said, "This is a test of the emergency broadcast system." Well, that is how we feel every time was have a scan. It has been three months since we have had one of those "tests."
Today you may have received another type of message on your television, radio, or device. It was that same irritating noise, but this time the message was, "This is a flood warning concerning your area from the emergency broadcast system." That means that even though nothing is happening in your back yard right now, there is a possibility that you will be affected by the floods.
When we have scans, whether it has been three months or one month, we understand that it is part of traveling the cancer journey. Each test is just that. "This is a test."
Today we received the second type of warning. Some spots were found that could be cancer, but they were extremely small and we are not even sure that they are disease (as Dr. Chang calls it). So, that is the update. The tests were inconclusive. In thirty days we will have another scan to compare and see if these spots are due to infection, or if we need to consider these another step in the cancer journey.
When I think about my journey, I know that I am simply walking down a path that my Lord has prepared for me. I pray that no matter what happens to you, that you will fill the same way.
Thank you for being concerned enough to read the blog. I feel as though I have a blog family. I love you all.
