 | When Negative is Postitive | for Julie's contacts |
My biopsy was last Tuesday and I was ever so thankful for a peace that finally settled over my soul the day or two before. It was a struggle only because the Dr. had a hard time locating it and staying on it long enough to gather the samples. I was told the pathologist was in town and I would have the results in a couple of days, but I got a call on Friday telling me they sent it out of town and that I wouldn't know anything until Monday. Every time the phone rang on Friday my heart sank into my stomach. I did finally receive that long awaited phone call on Monday...NEGATIVE! I have said many prayers of thanks and praise!! For all of you who have been praying I thank you from the bottom of heart.
I was also able to watch a bald eagle ride the air current above my backyard one day, was serenaded by a gold-finch as I hung the laundry out to dry and was awed by this sunrise which my camera could not come close to justifying.
Strange how now I find myself more often appreciating the simple pleasures of life and the precious gift of family and friends. Monday was also Hubby's birthday - I made him a card and bought him a couple of pairs of pants.
He has been so strong and supportive the last few weeks - holding me up every time I fell apart. Daughter decided we should take him to an air-conditioned dinner at one of the local spots that give the birthday person a free meal and then go to an air-conditioned movie. He agreed.
