I had my genetic testing today no big deal. Daniel was the office mascot by the end of the appt. Yesterday I received a package from my friend Lea. I first found a sweet devotional book, then I could tell there was something else in the envelope but couldn't get it out. I had to cut it open and then I saw it #Ihadntcriedtodayuntilthis. I made her a little poster (see photo) when she was diagnoased 3 years ago. And now it is back in my hands for me this time. I'm signing W.O.W right now. Best recycling I've ever seen.
Here's what I know God is good MRI will be next week sometime, results take 3 days Genetic testing results take 2 weeks Here's what I don't know Surgery date, although will most likely be towards the latter part of the month I am thankful for: ~Not having a language barrier like the other family in the Dr. office today, they had to have a translator ~The heated back massage pad at the dentist office yesterday, complete with Hawaiian fishies hanging from the ceiling. ~The numerous gifts, cards and letters everyone keeps sending me. I've never been so spoiled! I called my dentist office before my appt to let them know about my diagnosis. I didn't want my poor sweet dental hygienist Maryanne to fall off her stool when she asked me, "So do you have any changes in your health?" Maryanne prepped so many goodies for me, with cards and pamphlets to help with possible side effects they hardly fit in the little baggie. Prayer Requests Continued prayer for my back pain, and keeping my thoughts focused on HIM, not the what-ifs during what seems like endless waiting What You Can Do For Me Stop texting in the car (you know who you are) What Makes today Normal I changed Daniel's diaper on the bed and then he kicked it before I had closed it. Diaper and it's contents fell on the floor. Nice. Mike and Allie are currently camping in the backyard. Shout Out Lea Marhulik for such a special gift and encouragment Shara Sever for the pink roses Julia Reimers for the blueberry muffins and healthy food list Aloha Thank you all for reading this, it is helping me process everything and get my thoughts out. I will write again when there's more to update Have a nice weekend. If you have a rainbow in your corner of the world please be sure to send me a picture of it. Much aloha~Nikki
