Update

We drove 6 hours to sit for 3 hours in the Doctor's office at Huntsman. But it was interesting. The radiologist here said it was probably malignant unless proven other wise, and Huntman said Benign unless proven otherwise.........what a head rush! So Huntsman said to retest in 1 year. (what the heck) and they told us here to retest in 3 months. So that is what we will do. Cole had the day off so she met us there. It is so fun to see her. She is so stinkin cute.

Does anyone have any advise of adrenal glands that don't work anymore. I think that is what mine are doing. To tired to work. I feel exhausted from the inside out. Yes......adrenal exhaustion!

But I am so thankful for the 6 hours that we were able to just TALK. It is precious time for me. One of the things we talked about was how we all deal with cancer. Most people don't know what to say. (I am one of those people) Some say things that make your mouth hang open. I heard a rumor that someone told a cancer patient that they could have controlled it with diet. :{

This is some things I have learned about our experience:

1. A cancer patient is NEVER cancer free. Never! Maybe the doc says they are, but each and every day, they worry about reassurance.

2. It completely changes they way you think and live.

3. It proves that people are wonderful. We have been sooooooo blessed with love and support from sooooooo many people. I don't know what I have done to deserve such people in my life!

4. It either makes your heart mad or grateful, mine is grateful!

5. It is important to "Stay in the moment"

6. It has taught us empathy

7. I have learned so much about faith just watching my sweet husband's testimony grow about "HIS WILL"

8. I pulls families together

9. I have learned the after math of cancer surgery. The anxiety, sadness, physical problems, fear, and life altering challenges

10. That we live in 3 month incerments. And that our live revolves around test results.

11. That God lives and is aware of us. That my Savior has carried me through this. That He has sent angels into my life to help me through this. That His hands are the hands of our family, friends and ward members!

We carved pumpkins with Stacy and her friend Luke. It was super fun!
