Amy went to the Doctor today for lab work and to hear the results of her CT Scan from Friday.
When you have had cancer twice it is a bit nerve-dangling to go in to hear the results of any
scans.
Today's news was, PRAISE THE LORD, good. There is only one area on the side of her neck
that could be many things...scar tissue from radiation....a lymph node, or something more.
They will wait one month and if the area remains the same size it was probably just a lymph
node enlarged and if it grows they will have to remove it.
I'm funny, but hey, why wait a month, let's just get it out of there, but it is my 32 year old
daughter's body and there are risks with any surgery.
She goes to see Dr. Medina in Oklahoma City next Tuesday....he is the Dr. that wanted to do
such a radical surgery, that Amy grabbed hold of her "FAITH" and said no.
A week after Amy was diagnosed....after the Drs. told us she had less than two months to live,
the LORD sent his word to me:
"I WILL GIVE YOU BACK YOUR HEALTH AND HEAL THY WOUNDS," SAITH THE LORD.
~~JEREMIAH 30:17
THAT IS WHY MY URL IS http://debbie-jeremiah3017.blogspot.com/
On every lab slip...on every Drs. order....on any piece of paper or any medical record, and even
in my Journal, from June 14, 2008 up to this very day I have wrote Jeremiah 30:17 and
have shared the story.
I won't go into the whole story of when she had cancer at 10 1/2 years old but when she was at
her very sickest, most critical time of her life, I had come back from the cemetery and there on
9th floor of the hospital was a HUMMINGBIRD tapping on the window....there was nothing
in the window sill that would have attracted it.......I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE IT WAS AN
"ANGEL.".......because not 10 minutes later a friend brought a magnet for the icebox that
had the most beautiful HUMMINGBIRD on it and it said.............
"I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU," DECLARES THE LORD, "PLANS TO PROSPER
YOU AND NOT TO HARM YOU, PLANS TO GIVE YOU HOPE AND A FUTURE."
~~JEREMIAH 29:11
SHE WENT BACK TO SCHOOL AT ABOUT 15 YEARS OLD AND WENT ON TO ATTEND
COLLEGE AND IS A GIFTED ARTIST.
This year Amy was able when every Doctor surrounding her had nothing but horrible
news to give us...allowed that Spirit within her to rise and she spoke "FAITH."
I truly feel that no matter what the outcome God has for us...no matter the situation
we must let "FAITH" rise within us.
Thank You as always for sharing a part of your day with me.
Blessings

Debbie,
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible testimony of FAITH!
I have absolute Godbumps. I too believe that hummingbird was your sign.... and angel sent from above.
I'll stand in faith WITH YOU... AND HOLD FAST TO JEREMIAH 30:17!!!

I'm so glad the tests came back good. I will keep her in prayer. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord, he always keeps us close. Debbie, I believe, God sends angel to surround us with protection. When we are going through a crisis He lets an angel draw nearer, in whatever form, to remind us He is in control. Thank you for reviving my faith today. Hope to see you tomorrow for Project Friday. Hugs, Rosemarie
ReplyDeleteWhat a heart rendering story. May God continue to bless your family. Thank you for visiting and commenting on my blog. Hugs and kisses

What a beautiful testimony!! Thank you for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteI was so moved and inspired when I read your blog. I could not help but weep. I am so glad that the scan turned out ok. You have every reason to be so proud of your daughter. She has gone through so much, and so have you as her mother. I will never forget Jeremiah 30:17 from this point on, and you can be sure I will be praying this same scripture every day, and will lift you and your daughter in prayer along with my own.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your most intimate post.
blessings, ginny
Debbie, this is such a beautiful and inspirational post. I'm so glad the news was good, and I pray that she will continue to have good news. laurie
ReplyDeleteWe can only praise God for the good he does and the love he sends to us. I also believe the Hummingbird was an Angel letting you know she was there.
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with you and your sweet girl.
Just reading the story of Amy's journey and the hummingbird gave me goosebumps! What a post, thank you for sharing it. Hoping the scan in a month will be clear, I know it must be just so hard to wait.
ReplyDeleteDebbie,
ReplyDeleteI rejoice with you both today, and am joining my faith with you and Amy that God will continue to bring healing to her body. I also believe that God does send visible signs to re affirm our faith!!!
Blessings,
Sue

good Morning Debbie,
ReplyDeleteI am so blessed to read about your daughter, I have a friend whose daughter is in the battle of her life with breast cancer, so uplifting to read your story and to know God is so wonderful
Blessing to your daughter,
Judy
I am sorry I missed this post, but I could not read it without a tear, I am so praying things work out for Amy.
ReplyDeleteAloha Dear Debbie: Mahalo ke akua (Thank you God) for your great mercy and compassion and for mothers like Debbie and lifted prayers for her beloved daughter Amy to strenghten her walk in faith with you God. Jeremiah 30:17 is one of my healing scriptures for families and friends. Yesterday at church my dearest friend Flora who is 69 years old read this scripture and stands on her faith that she has chosen to stop her chemo and enjoy her remaining days with her husband who truly accepted Jesus Christ and all her children. She is a blessed woman and your blog has confirmed the power of God's words. May the lord bless you and Amy and all the readers who love our lord and Savior, Aloha ke akua (God is love) Napua Knight....Lihue, Kauai, Hawaii.
