I am a Miracle!

Though I operate in faith, there are those moments when the anticipation of a report or a decision my cause some anxiety.

Such was the case yesterday! A six-month catscan was scheduled for the afternoon. After doing the necessary labs and then the scan there is a waiting period. Normally the results would be shared with me in ten days or so when I meet with the oncologist. But yesterday, I would be receiving the report within minutes of the scan.

Something happened in my brain during that 23 minute wait. Stuff that I didn’t want to think about kept getting in there. I quoted scripture and sang songs (quietly) but still the thoughts that the report would not be good.

Then the doctor says, “Come on back Bob, I want to show you something.”  On the computer screen is an image….he said it was my lungs. I believed him but really, he could have called it anything. I am just not very familiar with my internal organs.

“See this area?” He says pointing to the lungs. “That’s where the cancer was….it’s not there….there is a little scar tissue….but there is no sign of any cancer.”  “Do you know what our success rate is with lung cancer?” he querried. I didn’t know and he said,  ”About 10%”.

So I asked him if he believed in miracles yet and he said, “Almost!”

So, I am cancer free! I don’t just believe in miracles….I am one.
