Journal entry by Sara Anliker —
It has been a full 4 months since I have had my surgery to remove the tumor. I have gained strength and have enjoyed the benefits of very few headaches! It has been quite the adjustment to going from daily headaches and pain to being able to work in my garden, sew and mow the lawn along with many other household chores I hadn't been able to do in years.
I received my schedule today for my radiation treatments. It has tried my patience greatly to wait and see what it would be. All in God's timing though, right? I will begin tomorrow traveling daily, Monday - Friday, to receive 30 days of treatment in Peoria. It will take approximately 3 hours a day (including travel time). I just pray for strength and ability to be able to endure.
A dear friend gave me a photo that hangs on my wall that reminds me... Faith is risking what is for what is yet to be. It is taking small steps knowing they lead to bigger ones. Faith is looking beyond what is and trusting what will be!
