Joel's Thoughts

My thoughts on life, Christianity, pop culture and dealing with breast cancer... but not necessarily in that order.

Bad News

My wife had a mammogram last week and the results were not good. We had to go in for a biopsy of a lump yesterday and we'll be meeting with a surgeon on Friday. Please keep us in your prayers. I'll post updates after we learn more about what we are dealing with.

Thanks guys. I can't help thinking that right now there is smeone in a hospital waitng room with no family, no friends, no church, no blog community etc. That person needs prayers as well. I'm going to be keeping an eye out for that person as well.

Any if my wife has to get a wig at some point, I hope we get one with Ivy's hair! ;)

Thanks again!

I pray that in the midst of the questions, sadness, wonder, and advice that you can find the peace of Christ, along with a brother and sister to cry with you.

My former pastor and his wife in MS have just come through the chemo/surgery/radiation gauntlet for this same thing. If you would like to talk/write to him, write me at bnettles@uu.edu and I'll give you the contact info.

Trusting the Father,
Bill

Joel,
I know it's been awhile, but please know that I am praying for you and your family.

Please keep us informed and may God watch over you and keep you near.
