Savanna Update before Chemo starts soon
Chemo starts very soon and some will be in-patient and some will be out-patient. There are two protocols and it will last a year. Please understand that I know I am remiss on some thank you notes, my hair looks like I do not like my hair to look, I am always behind and that is not me, I am stretched and then stretched a little bit more. The reason I am sharing this is for others you may know going through similar circumstances of a long term serious illness. There is not enough time so please understand that for your friends. Savanna goes on the 18th to get an MRI per Dr. Lee to see if any cancer has returned, once again, I ask you to PRAY, and please continue.
There have honestly been too many blessings to count and so many from strangers, I am truly humbled, honored, and touched way down deep...the deepest part of me.
I tell you if there are any dreams in your heart...do them immediately or as soon as you can. Life has one certainty, it is uncertain...grab your dreams and then live them. The important things are not my house or car, my titles or lack of titles, gossip, possessions or any thing of this world, really, they are very small. It would be nice if I could write a check and buy Brittany and Andy a modest home but it would not change the cancer, would it? All that matters is love, doing what is right as best you can, if you do wrong and if you are human you will, immediately make amends before pride lies to your heart, NOT NOT JUDGING others, and above all a relationship where GOD is LORD of your LIFE.
Lord, I said, yes. He is an awesome God who is totally in control anyway, so why not take our hands off the steering wheel. These are my very personal life lessons I am sharing with you from my heart and I hope someone understands that it is good to tell truth and share your burdens and victories. I dearly love my family, my friends, co-workers, my boss, my husband, my dogs but it is through God that I live and move and have my being, He is who has carried me through, he has used many people, good people to help Savanna and I am just very, very, grateful. Finally, pray for Savanna, Gage ( a small boy with Leukemia in my town), Brittany, Andy, Steven, Brian, my secretary, Mary Ann, and her dear husband Ross. All these people are in the fight against cancer indirectly or directly. So many more....and for a very special dog to recover that I love 100% to their fullest potential. I pray for America to wake up and remember what made us strong. GOD

We will be praying harder than ever for the 18th, praying that the cancer has not come back and never will. I hope you all are doing well, Savanna looks so good. Thanks for the updates.

Melly, You have said it exactly as it should be said and we need to say it more often to more people and help them learn of his grace and love that I could not live without. My prayers are with you all.

Praying for Savanna and all your family and friends that are going through the adversity of cancer. I pray that Savanna is doing better. When you feel you can't go on lean on God and he will carry you.
