Peace While Facing A Giant

"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord, is the Rock eternal." Isaiah 26:3-4
This past month I have been diligently researching my options for treatment. I have talked to 10 doctors, read 9 books on nutrition and cancer, had 7 diagnostic medical procedures and spoken to over 2 dozen people to hear their stories and seek advice.
Every day I have asked God to direct me down the correct path for my healing. I believe He is. Yesterday I met with a cancer specialist and received the final confirmation about surgery. I will go ahead with the lumpectomy next Wednesday at Scripps Green in San Diego. They will also be doing a conservative Axillary Lymph Node Dissection to remove a sample of lymph nodes since there is cancer in at least one. I will be at home resting and recovering for 12-14 days.
When I met with the cancer specialist he told me I was on the right track with my nutrition and vitamin therapy. They will do some further testing after surgery to determine the cause of cancer and begin to address any weak areas in my system. On October 24th I will be flying back to North Carolina for a 3 day seminar to find out more about healing cancer through nutrition. At this point I am not going to do chemotherapy or radiation. Continue to pray God will fine tune what I am doing with my nutrition in order to kill all the cancer cells in my body.
It is because of prayers and support from my friends and family that Sewell and I have the peace we do at this point. We will continue to seek counsel from experts in the field because the Bible says there is wisdom in the abundance of counselors. But mostly we will seek the counsel of our Heavenly Father who is the only one that knows my future and the plan for my complete healing. I believe He is revealing it to us day by day.
Thank you for reading these posts, leaving your encouraging comments and praying for us. We are so glad you are part of our winning team.
