Sunday

Hi Stampers!
Sunday is always a special day for my husband Lou and me as we meet with others to worship the Lord.  Today was extra special.

Last month, during and ENT appointment following up after an episode of vertigo, the doctor discovered that something was not right with Lou's thyroid.  Xrays and needle biopsies only served to confirm that something was wrong but not what exactly.   Last Monday, Lou underwent surgery; the entire thyroid was removed; Tuesday the doctor will share with us the report from Pathology.

Are we worried?  Absolutely not.  Though Lou has already survived cancer once before, from the onset, we have given this whole thing over to the Lord, resting in the knowledge of His love for us through His Son Jesus.  We know that whatever He brings into our lives, He is with us and will equip us to deal with it.  God is good -- ALL the time.

Recovery from throat surgery can take a long time.  His throat is still sore, as is the incision ( it looks like he has a second smile!), and he tires easily; but Lou was there by my side this morning, singing the praises of our Lord.

To God be the glory!

With a grateful heart,
Trish
