My daughter has been "given" a 90% chance to live. We are glad Katie has such a great prognosis! I know I can't live in fear of the other 10% - or in fear of the long term side effects of the treatments. It is all in the Lords hands anyway.
Katie was born with a predisposition for cancer - and she got cancer. As Scott says, "she got the best of the worst." Katie got the best type of cancer for getting cancer. There are many other mother's who are not so lucky. We met one such mother last week. Her daughter was diagnosed with a solid tumor when she was one and a half years old. Her daughter, who is now four years old, has relapsed so many times, she no longer has a "prognosis". Her daughter will not live. Katie most likely will. We are blessed! My heart breaks for the parents whose children don't have such a hopeful prognosis as our Katie. These are hard things we are having to go through, but there are parents out there, who are having to deal with harder things than we are. I pray for them. I pray for Katie, that she will continue to be blessed.
"I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you" (John 14:18).
Thanks for sending Kaylee a thank you note. And yes, you spelled her name right;) It made her day. We are so happy that Katie has the "best" of the worst.

ReplyDeleteWe can only hope this nightmare will be over with in another year or so, and it will be behind Katie, you and your family. Katie and you are in my prayers and on the temple prayer roll in Dallas. God bless! Tess
ReplyDeleteThe Lord does keep His promises and will come to you in your time of need. You are a strength to many, especially to your sweet Katie. She is lucky to have wonderful loving parents. We pray for you and for those who aren't as lucky. May you all be comforted in your greatest times of need.
