At times, I've had to step back and evaluate my life. Usually I hate doing it. Lately, I have been made to realize once again that when life seems on an even keel, we need to enjoy every second of every day because that "EVEN KEEL" can quickly change.
"The hurricanes" of life can be messy and require a lot of energy to keep up. My latest adventure at Hospital Land reminds me how mortal we can be. Any locals immediately hear Cancer when Moffitt Hospital is mentioned. It is in Tampa and has a great reputation for the strides made in fighting all types of cancer.
At her latest checkup at Moffitt, Vicki's tests showed 8 tumors in her lungs. She just had a large tumor and kidney removed a few months ago. She seemed to be cancer free. And, here we go again. Her attitude is positive, and upbeat. She has to have 4 days of intense chemo - August 5-8; a week and half off and back for another bout.
As I cry out to God, I beg for mercy and favor on Vicki's behalf. And, the WHY comes to mind. God, what are you thinking? No one on this earth deserves God's mercy more than Vicki. She has always been my hero. She is the first person to help when it's needed. She's a Godly, Christian woman of faith who has impacted so many lives. I can hardly bear this HEAVY news. She does not deserve this, in earthly understanding. I also know she believes God is still in control. Please pray God's will.
Life is so short.
