Good News

Blessings in disguise are interesting.

I'm preparing to move out soon. I can start moving stuff in as early as August 1 to save my room. I won't "move out" though until a few weeks later. Although I received an answer that moving out is what I need to do, I was still really worried about cancer. My scheduled CT scan was supposed to be July 30, TWO days before I'd start moving out.

And I couldn't help but think, "Well, what if things aren't good? What if I have to cancel my lease?"

Honestly, I was really kind of worried. I've been praying that things would be okay and work out according the Lord's will, and here's what happened:


Last week, I woke up on Sunday morning with a swollen jaw. We called the Huntsman, they scheduled a CT scan and appointment for the upcoming Wednesday, and prescribed some antibiotics for me. We went up to Salt Lake on Wednesday, had the CT scan, and the doctors said that it was a small infection that caused the swelling. Nothing bad, but just something to watch. The hospital called on Friday morning, and guess what?

There is no sign of cancer in me. I am CANCER FREE! There is really nothing better than hearing those words. It silenced my fears. It was definitely a tender mercy. The Lord knew I was worried about this scan and moving out, and did some work for me! So getting that infection was really a blessing.





I'm honestly super excited to move on with my life. I'm not completely out of the woods, but this is the first step. Cancer is something tough to deal with, and I would love to not have to keep having surgeries off and on for the next 40 years. :)
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to everyone who has helped me become where I am today. I couldn't thank everyone, it would be way too long of a list. If you're in a hard place right now, don't worry. Heavenly Father has promised blessings, and all you need to do is be patient and your blessings will come sooner or later. Hang in there.


Keep running!
