What a Difference a Year Makes.

Since my last blog update, we spent October and most of November in Florida. Of course we had to travel back to Fort Wayne every other week for chemo, but we made it work.  One of the weeks in Florida, we spent at Disney with Kerri, Seth and Madeleine, while camping in Fort Wilderness.  Our time at Disney was awesome, as expected.

Just before Thanksgiving, we returned to Indiana, leaving our motorhome in Florida. The need to return to Fort Wayne every other week makes it impossible for us to spend the winter in Florida.  We are planning to return to Florida at the end of March and spend six to eight weeks before bringing the motorhome back to Fort Wayne.

Last week in addition to chemo, I had my eighth set of scans. Once again, the scans showed no active cancer anywhere in my body. Praise God! This has now been eight months of consistent scans showing no cancer. We continually thank God for the healing that has taken place in the past year.

One year ago, I was uncertain that I would be alive today. My oncologist had only given me just 12 months to live, if I underwent chemotherapy. Currently, my lab work, my physical exams, the scans and the way I feel all indicate that I am winning the battle with cancer.  God is so good.

Again, I want to thank you for your prayers and words of encouragement. While everything looks good, the oncologist says that there is no cure for this cancer. God is my source of a cure. Your continued prayers are appreciated.
