Update: My followup DR visit went very well. The tumors that have grown are in areas that are of no concern and the tumors I have in critical areas are very stable! For about a month since I did my MRI scans and seeing the tumors that grew substantially I was expecting a lot worse.

I’ve got that feeling like I was just given back several years of my life. When you go thru times of not knowing how much longer you have to live a fairly normal healthy life, it puts things in perspective for you!

Life is a gift, not a curse! No matter how nasty the circumstances and how “unfair” it may seem sometimes, life is a beautiful thing.

Be thankful for what you have!

You Are Traced With Purpose!

Comment with things you are thankful for in your healthy life.

For me:
I can still hear
I can still see
I can still walk even tho I can’t do the straight line thing :p

When you compare among yourselves you either feel guilty for being blessed with more, or you envy those who have been.

Gods way is to not compare among ourselves but count what he has given each of us as a blessing. He may let you have good hearing-and take my hearing. I could get all grumpy about that but why? We don’t deserve anything, but beyond that-God isn’t careless and doesn’t care-He creates you and takes and gives according to his purpose! Nick Vujicic is a rock star example of how God creates us each differently and maybe even with some handicaps because He has a purpose for our life-he turns our disabilities into abilities for His Glory!
