Prayers Working!

The last few days, I have been discouraged about the progress of Kagan's chemo.  The doctors, the nurses, the technicians all talk in circles at times and it is hard to determine if they are speculating, encouraging or just being random.   I still knew things would be okay but their cloudy responses sometimes gave me fear as to what was to come.

Today, I got a chance to talk to Dr. Panchoosingh about the results of Kagan's test.  It was a quick conversation that  pretty much  just let me know that the cancer had not spread and that the chemo was working!    It was a pretty quick conversation and there was not too much detail but to hear his voice and his confidence that things are going as planned was great news.  Hearing that the cancer had not spread beyond the places it already was an answer to prayers.

It is funny because Dr. Panchoosigh has become one of my favorite doctors ever.  He is pretty much shoot from the hip and sugar coats nothing.   So, when his initial review of things today was positive I was elated. 

We are to be admitted back to the hospital tomorrow for more chemo.  This time it is with more anticipation and more hope of what is to come.  We also will get a chance to talk to the doctors in more detail, get a copy of the reports from the test and so forth in order to fill in the blanks with the answers to the many questions that have swirled in our minds for the past few days. 

I am 100% convinced that things were not going well last week and then God stepped in and showed his mercy due to the many prayers that are being lifted in Kagan's name and here we are today!  Thank you so much for all that have prayed!

Today, Kagan had to go and take his finals that he missed at the end of the year.  I just sat in a chair and worked on some thank you notes and so forth that I had neglected getting done.   He said the test were pretty easy.  He is officially now done with his 9th grade year!  YEAH!

Sitting there listening to the rhetoric about the staff, the few other students that were about the campus and SMELL reminded me that I do not miss high school at all.  Everything has a season and that one has come and gone for me!

As Kagan was taking his test I was sitting in the background and snapped this shot.  Some kids would have just accepted that they had already passed but Kagan was determined to take his test to protect the GPA that he had worked on all year long!  

Thanks again to all those who have prayed.  All the kind words and all the encouragement!   It has made the difference more than words can say.  Lots of love to all!
