CANCER
Someone once asked me how I felt about Heavenly Father not taking away my cancer after my diagnosis. That I didn't show up to my next appointment and the cancer had miraculously disappeared, like in other people's stories.
That thought had never occurred to me.
I prayed to be healed and My dad blessed me that I'd have a full recovery. I've been healed and I've had a full recovery. I prayed to get through the treatments and that the treatments would work. They worked.
I prayed with a grateful heart that it was me and not someone else.
I never prayed to have my cancer taken away, but here I am 13 years later and it has been taken away. So I guess I feel grateful that I learned empathy for those who are sick, for patience in rebuilding the muscle tone killed by chemo and patience in losing the weight gained from the chemo, gratitude for the change in my diet to eating healthy, for the miracles of modern medicine, and for the millions of answered prayers in between.
I put my life in God's hands and I am stronger for it.
