Miracles

REJOICE! REJOICE! IN THE LORD ALWAYS! :):):)

I am a Miracle.

The work of God in my life is nothing short of the supernatural.

If I had been the norm I wouldn't be here.

Acute cancer of white blood cells is deadly because it multiplies quickly and does not allow your body to fight off infection properly.

But I am here.

And I am living proof that I am a miracle.

Yesterday I received the report that my bone marrow has responded well to treatment. The 39 days that I spent in the hospital getting two rounds of chemotherapy were effective to eradicate the leukemic cells.

I was so excited when Dr. V told me the news. I was jumping up and down (literally!) and kept hugging the reserved Dr. V. It was a moment my daughter wished she had on video. In her words it was 'priceless'.

This report is a miracle and I give all the glory to God.

Additional miracles that I have experienced lately are:

• my body responding well to treatment, including the health of my organs
• lack of multiple infections common during treatment
• I did not loose my hair again. (This was HUGE for me)
• increased strength and energy
• increased appetite
• the ability to spend time with my family
• given permission to travel
• God's provision for hospital care and beyond

After the appointment yesterday I celebrated with my daughter Angela (who flew in from CO for my appt.) over a special lunch.

I shared my story with our waiter and he brought us this dessert as an affirmation of God's goodness in my life.

I continue to be blessed and humbled by God's extravagant love for me.

"Oh, give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name:

Make known His deeds among the peoples

Sing to Him, sing praises to Him

Speak of all His wonders;

Glory to His holy name!" I Chronicles 16:8-10

Thank you for your many prayers.

Praise be to God,

Love, Sharon
