Kecia just texted me asking for prayer. I didnt even realize that she had gotten scans done this week but apparently she did, as she found out today that there are 3 active cancer spots on the brain again. She also found out that the cancer center where she gets treatment is scheduled to close this week as well. She has very little information about either situation and is obviously very saddened by this flood of bad news. She said she will find out the course of treatment, and where she will receive treatment early next week. She is asking that everyone pray for God to take care of these 3 spots just as He did the last 3 so that there will be no need for radiation or that horrible gamma knife again. I will let ya'll know more when I hear. Thank you!

Ready for some good news?

Kecia went in to see Dr Wazenski, her oncologist, today and he told her that her heart function was up slightly from 25 to 28. Not sure exactly what that measures (i thinks it how much it can pump out) It is supposed to be up in the 80 range so while it is impoving, it still has a long way to go to be out of the danger zone. He then found out that her lung scans from the previous day were ready to be read. He is very open with Kecia and honest about everything she has been going through so he once again brings scans in to read out loud to her and Jeanie even before he has had a chance to review them. He was dumbfounded and said "well, people are REALLY praying for you arent they? " The lining of her lungs has become think due to the cancer lesions growing all over it. The legions were relatively small, but there were tons of them covering both the upper and lower portions of the lung. He told her there are absolutly NO legions that can be detected and the lining of her lung has returned to normal thickness! I dare somebody to try and explain that away as something other than God! Dr Wazenski is one of the best in his field and he knows this is so much more than medicine. He asked Kecia "You are praying people, right? Christian? Well PRAISE JESUS! This is amazing. I don't know what to say except you must have alot of people praying for you." (Dr. Wazenski is Jewish but Kecia thinks he is a Mesionic Jew) Kecia and I discussed how this is becoming her testimony and how she is "accidentally" touching lives with her story and faith. My girls are so excited to see God working for Kecia in this way. We stopped praying that God would "please heal kecia" several weeks ago and began instead thanking him for the miracles he has already done for her and for the ones he is doing right now. We just believe He wants to heal her and we are thanking him in advance for the healing that we know he will do! WOW! I have goose bumps! Im so happy to be able to share good news with my faithful prayer warriors who know that our real battle is not with flesh and blood but with the forces of evil....who did NOT win this battle! (I cant stop smiling)
