Hey everyone!! So, just as expected, Grace's appointment went awesome! The "piece" that they've been watching in there was "significantly smaller", meaning, more than likely, it's not tumor:)!!!! I have known this for so long, but have just been waiting to hear those doctor's say it....and they finally did! Of course nothing's 100% for sure, and it never will be with this disease, but this is absolutely the best news we could've gotten!! More great news was, we don't have to go back down there until September! I am just ecstatic, I haven't been this happy in so long! The second scan they did (the Sestimibi) showed absolutely nothing unusual in there, which has never happened before, so thats great too!!:) Once again, Grace was totally excited to see everyone, she's so grown up, she just walks in there and does her thing, gets her port accessed and says, "Thanks for accessing my port!", like they're doing her a favor, it's too cute:)!! Anyway, things just absolutely went perfectly:)!! I read this a few months ago and I wanted to share it with you all, it just explains life so perfectly:
It is better we should not know our future. If we did, we should often spoil God's plan for our life. If we could see into tomorrow and know the troubles it will bring, we might be tempted to seek some way of avoiding them, while really they are God's way to new honor and blessing. God's thoughts for us are always thoughts of love, good, promotion; but sometimes the path to the hilltop lies through dark valleys or up rough paths. Yet to miss the hard bit of road is to fail of gaining the lofty height. It is better, therefore, to walk, not knowing, with God, than it would be to see the way and choose for ourselves. God's way for us is always better than our own. -J.R. Miller
That has gotten me through a lot of darker days, and when I say that, I almost feel guilty, we have not had the dark days that some families have, we have always had our little girl, and I, at the very least, have always known that we would! So many people have said to me, "It's just so unfair someone so little, has had to go through so much," and, in a way, it is, but that little girl has taught me more faith, compassion, and appreciation in two short years, than I learned in 24 on my own!! She has changed everything about my life, sometimes I feel guilty she had to go through so much, to make me a better, more faithful person, but nevertheless, she has, and I am eternally grateful to her for that!:)!! Like it says above, EVERYTHING is in God's plan, there are implications to all Grace has been through that have not even begun to take shape yet, I truly believe that:)!! She is my little blessing, there is no other way to describe her, and she's had such an impact on so many, it amazes me! So thank-you all, so very much, for your prayers, you have all certainly given us our little girl back, she is our little miracle!!:) Love you all so much:)!!
