Greetings in Christ Dear Sisters
I left mastectomy July 8th with 5 lymph nodes removed. 1st August was second surgery with 17 lymph nodes removed. 15 positive.
in chemo now, completed first cycle(4weeks) starting second cycle 21st October 12 weeks.

I am blessed with a caring support network including Church, Family, Friends and colleagues.

Please be encouraged "God uses our hardships to make us more like Jesus and no purpose is greater than that.

I find calling on Jesus name in days where I'm fatigued, down is all I can do to know Im being carried in Jesus's loving arms.

I pray healing for us all dear sisters...God bless and keep us close.

    Hi Doris,

    I'm sorry to hear that you had two surgeries and a lot of lymph nodes positive,  but at the same time very happy to see that you are so brave and aware of the need to depend on the Lord.

    That was the lesson I learned during the cancer journey, because I hadn't quite understood it before!

    And thanks for your prayers, will be praying for you too.  Well done on getting through your first chemo series.

    Big hugs from Helen

    Hi Doris, lovely to ‘meet’ you. 

    I have noticed huge changes in myself since my first diagnosis in 2018. God is a miracle worker and I thank him continually for his never ending love. 

    Only God can bring us Joy in trials and to have others notice this joy and be encouraged by it is an absolute blessing.

    Adding my prayers to yours for healing of the hurts.
