Last evening before I was headed out the door to a girls' night out, my Mom called. It was a very unusual time to call and I knew she was on her way to the Muny, so of course my heart jumped in my throat. I said, "Hello" and she said, "I wanted to call you with some good news for a change." and I knew it - Dad's biopsy came back clean.
All week, I had forced myself not to even consider any other result. I just knew in my mind and heart that we'd have good news. It just couldn't be any other way. But actually hearing it...I didn't expect to feel so emotional. I hung up with my Mom and started crying. I guess I must have been burying all my worries so deep they finally bubbled up and out of me. It felt good and scary too.
I know this is just one step in a long journey for us. But it was huge. Dad's meeting with his doctor this morning and I am guessing they'll continue with the same plan. He'll still go in for blood work a couple times a week.
Keep praying, keep the faith, thank you for your love and support. : )
