I still cannot get my head around how much life can change in such a short time and yet how much it can still stay the same. There is still laundry to do and meals to fix but it is done with such a heaviness of heart. On the other hand, I believe if we didn't feel that weight we wouldn't be able to feel the wonderful presence of God in the midst of this. I still cry out to Him that it is not fair and lovingly He assures me that He is here with me and will not let us go through this alone.
Yesterday we had a bit of a surprise. We got to radiation and were told that Gavin would undergo another CT scan on his lower back and pelvis to prep him for radiation to that area. Unfortunately we had not heard this from any doctor so it was somewhat of a shock that another area was being focused on. We did talk to the radiologist today though and he told us that the oncologist had requested it. We believe it is to prevent that area from aggravating Gavin when he starts chemo.
We have another oncology appointment tomorrow at 3:15. Please pray extra for us at this time as we believe we will be getting a more specific diagnosis and plan for treatment.
Once again we thank you for all of your prayers, support, and offers for help. I'm not sure if we will be able to post right away tomorrow, we might need a few days to absorb the information ourselves. Just know that our faith is strong and our attitude positive.
We love all of you!
Maria
