When Life Feels Like A Shipwreck DO NOT Forget To Sing In The Lifeboats




"When We Encounter Storms, Jesus Asks US, ‘Why Are You Afraid? Have You Still No Faith?’, Each Storm Is An Invitation To Trust Jesus, To Remember His Care - Rich Vincent“

Man oh Man what another glorious visit from MD Anderson! Can I get an AMEN!

We walked in Mike’s visit today awaiting for Dr. Groves and his team to arrive. As we waited, as always I had not only continued my praying for excellent results, but I prayed all the way to that room from the car. Dr. Groves walks in (ALL Smiles) and sits down ever so casually as if we were about to talk about the Final Four coming up, and before he started to speak, his expression was worth a thousand words!

Dr. Groves went on to tell Mike from the latest MRI’s (Brain / Spine) and Lumbar Punctures that he remains Cancer-FREE in his Brain, Spinal Fluid and Spinal Cord! There are a few Metastasis still on the Spinal Bone (Which remember, that is different than the actual cord) that are continuing to shrink and nothing new has developed in these areas…

WELL, the BEST part of the visit was what Dr. Groves said after this. He went on to tell us that these are his favorite visits when he has NOTHING but Good News. He said that Mike is a “Miracle of GOD” and that with his diagnosis that he does not often see these results. He honestly does not see this much healing and progression in the RIGHT direction but only rarely! Wow! What an amazing thing to hear your Doctor say! We also shared with him that Mike has been invited to share his testimony with a friend’s church soon. The Doctor asked if Mike could also provide his testimony to him as so that he can share with MD Anderson, his team and all others going through treatment! How amazing! GOD is truly working wonders in our life and using us to the fullest; because of this we remain so strong in our faith!

He remains happy that Mike is back at work Part-Time and encourages this to the fullest. Mike feels as though he can take on the world at this time, but it is still HIGHLY recommended that he remain part-time for the next couple of months. This disease is so un-predictable and though he is doing so well now, we must continue to know the reality of the disease and the ever changing course it may take anytime. And even though we know this – My Kart-Wheel mentality is back in high-gear and I will continue to focus on the positive and PRAISE GOD for all he has done – HE is So Very Worthy!

Family and Friends (I no longer us the word “stranger”) you ALL are Family and Friends and if you are on this journey with us, no matter your location, you are no longer a stranger to us! We thank you ALL for your commitment to your faith and using that faith to lift us up and instill the strength and courage in us daily!

I will close now and continue to keep you all posted in the upcoming weeks with results from Mike’s PET Scans and will continue to Claim, Claim, and Claim Results of continued healing and know that Mike is on his way to being CANCER-FREE throughout!

Wishing You All a fabulous week and much love from Mike and I!

XOXO Lyndie

I feel so inadequate with words to express my awe at this miracle! Miracles happen around us all day, every day, but we just don't get to see them performed in front of our very eyes. This was wonderful to read. Bless you both.
