The mystery note

August 13, 2012

Today, everyone had to go their separate ways.  Theo had to be at work, I had a doctor’s appointment, and the boys were out of school so they had to spend the day with Uncle Robert.  Good thing I have a great mother, she came over to watch and shuttle the boys.  My doctor’s appointment went well.  I am down to 42,000.  I was also informed that I may have to get another bone marrow biopsy.  And they don’t want to put me to sleep.  It hurts!!!  I am ok with the biopsy, but not the awake part.  I will be fighting this idea.  Once I got to work, there was a note awaiting my arrival.  I was so pretty.  I was intrigued so I took a closer look.  Someone had thought about ME and made a card.  It was decorated beautifully with butterflies and said God loves me.  The note went on to say that this person was thinking of me and just felt the need to share a token of love with me.  She explained if there was anything she could do, she was there for me as well.  She also shared her on testimony.  It was the day she found out her husband had leukemia.  She felt like she was the one going through.  She cried and cried again.  She felt the weight of the world on her shoulders.  What would see do next? How would they get by?  Would he be healed?  She wasn’t sure of anything anymore.  But God reassured her.  God let her know that just because we are Christians doesn’t mean we have it easy.  But he will bring us through.  This is the same lady from the earlier post on 7/9/2012.  She was going to be off on vacation and wanted to let me know.  I hope she has a great one, she deserves it.  This story helps me keep things in perspective.  I am not the only one facing my illness.  My husband who is my main support is also going through a tough time.  He may feel the weight of the world on his shoulders.  I try to keep him uplifted and encouraged but sometimes I fall short.  Keep me in your prayers.
