Oh me oh my!

Wow, I've been a slacker at updating this blog!  Time flies.


OK, so.....what a year we have had so far (and it's only 1/2 over).


1. Amber (my youngest sister who is pregnant with her 2nd) was diagnosed with "Complete Placenta Previa" weeks ago (was told there was only a 1% chance the placenta would move), BUT a miracle.....at her last check-up/OB ultrasound, it did!  So now she is no longer considered "high risk pregnancy", and can go about her activities as usual with a normal due date!  God is good.


2. Mom had to be taken to the ER for left arm numbness a few weeks ago (all tests for that -- ruling out stroke/heart attack came back normal).  But while in ER, she got some blood work back indicating her cancer might be back (had breast CA 4 years ago).  BUT a miracle...after seeing an oncologist and having a body scan and several CT scans, NO CANCER (just a tiny kidney stone and some arthritis).  God is good.


3. At my annual GYN exam a few weeks ago, it was discovered via pelvic ultrasound that I had a "large complex mass" on my left ovary and needed surgery to remove it (and possibly the entire ovary).  Once the cyst was removed, it would be sent to pathology to determine if it was malignant (cancer) or benign.  BUT a miracle...once in surgery, it was discovered NO MASS (= no cancer), but rather excessive scar tissue that was pulling my bladder and uterus up into a ball.  I will need another surgery for this (a hysterectomy) in the near future, but am thankful no cancer.  God is good.


So....yep, busy year we've had so far, but see God's hand in it all, and am thankful for His peace through it all.  God is good....all the time.  :)


Looking forward to a great summer.  Kids last 3 days of school are this week, and then we will be in summer/relaxation mode.  :)
