Answer to prayer!
My mom had her final test and had just spoken with the doctor about the results. She and I came out of the ladies dressing room, and we called my dad over. He walked up and had that look of "Well, what's the answer?" in his eyes, but we took him aside and I said "It's time to do a circle dance! Momma is cancer free!" And we circled around singing our "do to do to do" song knowing everyone in the waiting room was staring at us. But we didn't care.
It probably sounds funny, but circle dances have become a tradition in our family. Anytime the three of us have any good news, we'll grab the hands of the others and circle around celebrating. It has become some of my favorite moments spent with my parents as we celebrate what the Lord has blessed us with that day.
So after two days of doctor's visits with my mom and endless mammograms, MRIs, CAT scans, and sonograms, I'm excited to share that she remains cancer free! Thank you sooooo much to everyone on here who surrounded my mom in prayer. She's been keeping up with all your sweet comments, and your encouragement means the world to her, and me too!
Here's a cute pic of my parents from a few months ago.
