MIRACLES DO HAPPEN!

These past few months have been trying to say the least for our family. As soon as we accepted or dealt with one major life changing thing, another would come our way. I have never prayed and fasted so much in my life! One of the trials I feel like I can share is about my cute sister Megan. About 3 weeks ago as I was walking into Target my heart stopped as I heard her tell me over the phone that there was a lump on a lymph node in her chest! The doctor was very concerned and scheduled a mammogram and ultrasound for the following week. We spent the next week and a half waiting, wondering, not sleeping, praying and fasting that it was not cancer! As I prayed and fasted I could not get a calm feeling, I was terrified. Before when I would pray/fast about things I would feel calm or know that things would be ok, not this time. I was uneasy, did not know what to say to my sister who could face a life changing disease! The morning of her appt. came and I drove up to Provo to be with her for the results (after dropping Micah off to school crying) But, I couldn't wait for a phone call or a text, I had to be there!

As I waited in the hall for the results with Ruthie, I prayed mightily that it would be ok, even with the bad feeling in my gut. I stood close to the door as I heard what I thought the doctor said was benign! A few seconds later Megan came out with the good news, it was a tumor, but benign, no operation needed now, just monitoring the size for a while! MIRACLES DO HAPPEN! I promise this was one. The prognosis of a lump the size of a pee on a swollen lymph node in your chest has no hope... but this is where the power of prayer comes in! I will never forget this MIRACLE in our life! My sister is my best friend! We talk hourly most days! I don't know what I would have done if she had to go through something so difficult! I am so glad she is ok and know that our Heavenly Father had a hand in this!

Here is Megan with Ruthie! They are coming this week and we are so excited!
