It's All in The Genes

In my last post, if you'll remember, I had been to see a Genetic Counselor (GC) and they took a vial of blood to send to a lab for genetic testing. Well, last Friday (November 13), I received a call from the GC and she advised that my results had come back and I had no mutations on any of the 47 genes they tested. 

I'm not a mutant. 

I'm normal. 

Really??? 

So, where did the cancer come from??? Why me??? I don't know where the cancer came from. I don't know why I got cancer. But I do know that I thank God for cancer and that He will get all the glory and honor and praise through it all. 

This song from Jonathan Traylor "You Get The Glory" says it all:


One of my sayings when something "bad" happens in my life is "for my good & His glory." Can you say that with all that's swirling around us each day? My prayer is that I will always have that attitude. - "For my good & His glory."

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!! May your blessings be many even though fewer people may be at your table!!!

Prayer Requests:

December 22, 7am - Blood draw. Please pray that my CA-125 number has remained where it was at the end of October (or lower) and that my other numbers have improved to where they should be.

December 29, 9am - Doctor appointment. Please pray for wisdom as post-chemo maintenance treatments are discussed.


Only by His Strength,

Sandy
